Chamonix

all i can say is wow, this is the first time ive ever been here and its so fucking nasty. i was kinda bummed before i came cause there wasnt a park, but the whole fucking mountain is a park. there's all these little road gaps and mini-kickers everywhere, i couldnt even imagine it on a pow day. any local info would be much apreciated, but all of you should come here at least once

chamonix is super sick but presents a problem: much of the bc shit is crevassed glacier so unless you kno the area super well (which i don't) its too dangerous without a guide. secondly, the best terrain like the gd montets becomes the site of a stampede when fresh pow and tracked within 5 mins.

my favourite spots are le brevent and le tour for bc. they are quieter and pretty sweet.

as for natural hits, there is a kicker site i forget where exactly called the "Big Tit" which is reputedly over 120 feet- i saw pictures of a boarder hitting it in an old sb uk.

in conclusion, cham is sick, but the local knowledge required to stay safe, which i don't have means that i prefer tignes and val d'isere for ripping.
