Lazy Park Crew Hailed as Visionary

We asked him a few questions about his breathtakingly influential pieces. How do you deal with this for your latest installment, the buried down rail? Jade: The buried down rail was an idea I had been working on for some time. I was getting zooted in the woods during my shift when I came up with it.

Editor's Notes: 2018 4FRNT Devastator & Vandal

The Devastator is a true One-Ski-Quiver." These skis definitely reward strong, powerful skiing, but can also be a mellow cruiser ski. If you’re an intermediate skier, these might be too much ski for you. Overall, I enjoyed the shit out of the Devastators. They crush everything; spring crud, powder, groomers or anything else you throw at it. Lately though, it seems to have turned around for the better. I was eager to hop on a pair & put them through the wringer....

FIS World Cup Font Romeu

Nonetheless, under sunny skies everyone threw down on the fairly small but pretty fun looking course. Oystein was going enormous, sending dub 12 to switch dub 12, both to gucci with technical grabs. The second iteration of his run was good enough for third. Kea Kuhnel also deserves a mention for qualifying for the German Olympic Team by virtue of making the finals.
