The shot of the season

Mitja and Maček went to Kaprun for the weekend and our skier friend Andraž Šparovec from Jibrothers was happy to join. Kitzsteinhorn has just got 40cm of fresh and the clouds kept it dry for days. While Mitja was filming the Ride On competition, Matevž and Andraž did a little scouting and hiking to find something worth filming. The reality of powder is that no matter how late in the season it is, everyone wants to get a bite before the end. The only possible way of getting some untouched slabs was to track the high peaks.
Guys went for the ledge that is sticking out of the main ridge to the Kitzsteinhorn summit. From the side it looks something that Xavier would go for and the snow conditions turned out to be save and deep enough. As soon as Mitja had a break, it was droppin` in time. Maček as the more experienced of the pair got the first track and Andraž followed with a nice line. This sure was the best shot this season and got us all hyped so Maca and Andraž went for some more but a little less exposed stuff...
To wrap the day properly we stayed on the mountian until the sunset, chilling and enjoying the Colby West show on mega special obstacle. Nice!


First track awaits the brave!
