Blasting Trees in Revy

by ibex
Mar 2018 - 9.2K views

Riding Revelstoke in Jan was awesome, it is for sure one of my favourite resorts in the world. It's a totally different style of riding to places like Verbier or the European Alps (generally speaking)
You spend most of your time searching for hidden features in the forests, skiing pillow lines and sending drops between trees.
It is a heap of fun, and super cool to mix things up by returning there for the first time in about 5 years!

Huge thanks to Valley Retreat for hooking me up with a place to stay while I was in town! Their set up is rad, and if you are looking for a cool place to crash it is definitely worth checking out here - http://www.valleyretreat.ca/

Got my new 2013 winter getup the other day. Thought Id just nip over the river for some fresh... Stuff.. Managing slough was essential, Whilst riding these kinds of slopes, you run the risk of being caught in a Gravelaunch.

Jun 2018 - 3.4K views

While hanging out in Andorra waiting to compete in the 3rd FWT event of the 2018 season we had a bit of downtime to go out and rip!
This is all from one day, where basically the whole FWT crew was out and absolutely sending.
The energy was high and everyone was inspiring everyone else!
Easy best day of the season.

WOO!! Yann says I sound like a small dog when I ski.. 🐶
FWT Hakuba, Japan is only two weeks away! So in the interest of training (& sanity) Yann Rausis and I went for a quick jaunt up to Austria to follow the storm. We hit it right on time!!

Redemption in the Motatapu chutes at TC

by ibex
Nov 2018 - 1.1K views

I tried to ski this line maybe 8 years ago, the last time the NZ Open big mountain event was held in the Motutapu chutes at Treble Cone In Wanaka, New Zealand.
That time I screwed up the first hop turn and straight lined out to the left, crashing into the chute.
This time everything went to plan!
Goal for next season is to ski it faster!!

Frontier FWQ 4* New Zealand - 1st place POV

by ibex
Sep 2016 - 6.3K views

This is my winning run from The North Face Frontier FWQ 4* freeride comp in New Zealand in August 2016. This year was the first time the comp has run as a four star rated event, so people were throwing down some pretty cool stuff!
I actually changed my plan half way through the run as the cliff I was planning to hit scared the shit out of me as I got closer to it, so I went to plan B for the bottom section.
It was a great day and I am stoked to see such a highly rated event run in NZ!

Hot laps with the bros at Treble Cone, New Zealand!
Everything is ON up there right now!
There were left 3’s, right 3’s, loose 3’s and tight 3’s. Plus a couple flips and some spicy ski ballet for good measure!

Sam Lee, comp run, Frontier FWQ New Zealand - yay for stunts

by ibex
Nov 2018 - 387 views

Here’s the pov of my run at the Frontier FWQ 2* in New Zealand this season.
I wanted use this event as an opportunity to practice freestyle in competition, something I haven't really dabbled that heavily in until recently.
I took a decent hip check on the cork 7, but I’m stoked to finally do one in a comp, as well as landing my first two 3’s and a frontflip!
As far as a training comp, I am stoked on what I learned!

Revelstoke, The Land of Short Trannys

by ibex
Mar 2018 - 2.8K views

After returning from the attempted FWT event in Hakuba, Japan (which unfortunately didn't run due to weather and snow conditions) Yann Rausis and me headed back to Revelstoke to hit some pow, pillows and big drops with short trannys, before cruising over to Kicking Horse for FWT stop two (plus the restaged Hakuba event)
We managed to time our arrival perfectly with the first big storm in a while, and had a hell of a time!

All the GoPro shots are from my head.
Yann is the guy in the blue pants and jacket and I am rocking the Orange and Blue

New Zealand, So What?

by ibex
Oct 2016 - 3.4K views

In New Zealand, there is a ski field called Treble Cone, which consistently draws a crowd of mad folk from the four corners of the Earth (Flat Earth theory?) who all froth past the brim on Freeriding and getting a bit silly.
This Started as my season edit, but ended up with a bunch of shots of all the crew havin'a'time on a few of the best TC rat pack days of the season.

The POV footage is all from my head on my Drift helmet cam and the first minute is just me, with Cam Mcdermid ripping some grass in a black suit in a couple of clips.

Song is - 'Spread Your Love', Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

TC Saddle Chinese Downhill "What The Fuck Is Chinese Downhill??"

by ibex
Aug 2016 - 12.3K views

Powder days at Treble Cone are an amazing thing. Usually it takes about half the day for the Saddle basin to open, and seeing as the saddle is where the magic happens, frothers and powder hounds will line up for at least 30 mins in the hopes of scoring first chair.
When the rope drops, chaos ensues as the Saddle Opening Chinese Downhill gets under way. Anyone who has been there knows how mad it can be, and I for one love the madness!
This is me scoring 2nd chair on a mad dog pow day mid July.
For those who missed the joke, The intro scene and voice over/song is from a classic American ski movie called Hot Dog.
It's funny as, and a must see for anyone interested in snow sports,

Spiney Demon, Treble Cone Spine line

by ibex

This is my favourite spine line at TC. Riding from top to bottom is awesome, and there are a million different ways to ski off either side of it on the way down!
Can't wait to get back there next year.

Blade Nation - Inside The Blader Zone

by ibex
Mar 2014 - 3.6K views

The second instalment of Blade Nation season 2. Coming right to your optic nerve from Switzerland! I didn't think we were taking this so seriously, but it looks like we have seasons now. So that's pretty fruity. But I guess we all progressed so far over the first "season", to become the most highly skilled Bladers on the whole entire mountain. So its probably justified. This is all filmed in Verbier at the famous One Piece Descent. Don't even try to front on our skills homie. Don't be messin with the Blade Killa, Im the number one thrilla, got flows like vanilla, and tricks like Godzilla, I'm the gorilla in your filla shots, I'm the sub zero blade robot, the possessor of mad skills, thrower of sick thrills, a style so nauseating you'l need sea sick pills.

Cliffs, Spins and Long Jumps at Verbier

Mar 2018 - 1.3K views

After a hectic start of the winter travelling to Revelstoke, Hakuba, Kicking Horse and Whistler in the space of 2 months, I finally made it back to Verbier and had an awesome day blasting around with the Kiwi crew!
It was refreshing to go and ride without the pressure of shooting or competing.

Ride Break

by ibex
Nov 2015 - 1.3K views

This is my 2015 New Zealand ski season edit, it contains straight skis, pow, drops, flips, snow blades, The NZ Open, monoski, dirt skiing, a pond skim backflip and scroggin.
I had a great season skiing in NZ this year. Without a doubt the best NZ season I can remember!
I was ski instructing at Cardrona and in between teaching kids how to french fry I was able to make the most of my ride breaks to go and ski parts of the mountain that haven't been on in years!

Sub Alpine Submarining

by ibex
Feb 2016 - 1.5K views

Off the plane from New Zealand and straight into some seriously epic pow riding in Verbier.
My first week in Europe was damn fine.
It looks like we caught the unicorn though, seems like most of Europe is struggling, Champoluc in Italy where I am now based is certainly bare.
Fingers crossed for more of this in the coming weeks!

Jasna Adrenalin 2016 FWQ4 Sam Lee POV

Mar 2016 - 1.7K views

POV footage of my run from the 2016 Jasna Adrenalin FWQ 4* in Slovakia,
I placed 6th overall.

Most people assume that when you grow a beard you become more manly, but if you watch to the end of the video with the volume turned up you will notice by my high pitched vocalizations that I am still part 10 year old girl.

I guess the only thing my beard is good for is catching milk from breakfast...

Snow Blading is an extreme sport, all the stunts in this video are performed by experienced semi pro bladers/blade riders, any attempts to recreate the stunts shown in this video my result in death or loss of respect within social groups. Do no try this at home.

Treble Cone Closing Day 2015

by ibex
Apr 2016 - 1.2K views

Treble cone closing day, the most important day of the New Zealand ski season.
Straight Ski, Hot Doggin, Snow Blading, Mono Ski Backflip, Pond Skim Backflip, Mean Bails and Penguin Slides. All capitalised to show how important each activity is.
This should give a pretty good feeling of a standard Treble Cone closing day.
Cant wait for opening day 2016!
