I've heard of him actually! He's in WESki Mag (Julien Regnier's French mag) as one of the top up and comers.

He doesn't compete or have movie segments, but just kills everything. Theres a sequence of him slaying a up rail to gap to down rail with too much style. Thats pretty much all I know though!

I have a copy, i'll try scan it, or take a pic of the page or something!

OK, this is the thing on Dante in WeSki Mag. Its crappy quality, sorry, it just took a pic of the mag.

Zoomed in on the text for those that can speak French!

Pssh, well there goes my first try at linking pictures. Of course it wasn't going to work.

Well, there are two pics in the misc section, and on my profile saying 'For thread (dante Xillon)'

There are two links here too. (Maybe some kind person could make the pics appear in the thread!!:

K my French isn't that hot but.....

Know one knows Dante, the guy's a phantom. He doesn't do contests or have film segments. He showed up to a photo shoot at Mammoth and killed everything, everyone was (blown away??). Chris O Connell, who was shooting and managed to take this sequence, but according to Chris, this is just 10% of his potential. The problem, or the solution, is that he doesn't speak much English and apparently ...........(I dunno that bit- il se fout de tout??) A real rock star. So, no pictures of his face, but we'll try to tell you more! A real Satan.

Don't rag on me for a shitty translation, I'm English, and only speak a bit of French.

Maybe this'll be one of those threads someone brings back in 2008, when Dante Xillon has the best segment of all time in the new Poorboyz film!

aparently Dante is entirely self taught. He watched ski films, then just went out and made the tricks his own.

id watch for the name in the next year or two...from what ive been told he is insane (talent and literally)

Dante has a very long hair (we can see it on the mag).

But not sure that this guy exist. It's perhaps just one more joke of Chris O^Connel and it's a guy from Armada hide under theses clothes.

I think it's funny how quickly someone can become "hot"

It's like a new hollywood star just showed up at a movie premier...

so, Dante joined the team early 05, and Im telling you, you have no clue. none of you. I am one of few that have seen him ski, and he's just the perfect natural talent. he doesnt practise, he doesnt warm up. he just listens to black and death metal, then he drops in and throws his moneytrick right away, without even trying the jump. its insane. I was there when he did that up gap down rail in june, and just look at the seggy how smooth that was, i had a struggle on that thing.
even I dont know what to expect from him, just wait and see...
