Candide Thovex was the first skier to hit chads gap? At age 17!

Candide not the 1st to hit chads gap....Just the 1st videotaped doing so and put in a movie about it.

Old boy named Kris Ostness(spelling unsure) was the 1st. Candide indeed made history though.

No, Kris was there but he was a filmer I'm pretty sure. Watch Few Words. Chad Zurinskas (?) tried a few times but fell, then candide cleared it

 

[RubberSoul]

yep, it's in ostness's movie clay pigeons

 

[The_Polock]

Alright! I have not choice but to believe you now.

I was really stoked about few words. This guy contributed so much to our sport, and the movie really shows the way he took to get him and freeskiing where he/it is today. And also La Clusaz looked so brilliant in this film, basically a natural terrain park all over the place.
