Salomon FreeSki TV > Episode 8 \"Roots Austria\"
Salomon just released episode 8 of their FreeSki TV Series, this one features Chris Rubens & Mike Henitiuk heading to Austria which is known as the cradle of modern skiing. Chris Rubens and Mike Henitiuk explore this country’s obsession with sliding on snow from the Hahnenkamm to the Arlberg. There's also a nice shot of Chris Rubens skiing with a Canadian flag at 1:54.
Have a watch and let us know what you think.
I really enjoyed the juxtaposition of the old school with the new school styles. Nice to be reminded there always have been great, creative skiers.
Also loved the footage of the Hahnenkamm, it reminded me of the Irwin, Reid, the Pod and Canada's exciting and breif domination of the world's craziest race.
