Rosie and Jules conquer the freeride - Courchevel Enquirer
While most people have a nice peaceful relaxing Sunday, others prefer to be skiing to their limits and challenging the steepest slopes. Rosie LíEquipe) and Jules (El Gringos) are two of these type of people for whom extreme skiing is the thing to do immediately after breakfast.
On the 14th and 15th of March they put the ìCî into COJ”NES as they competed in the Courchevel Freeride Classic taking on the cream of the French female extreme skiers. Jules actually qualified for the final only to find that an administrative error had swapped her with the French champion. In the Men's event Pat Sharpels , Mitch (LíEquipe) and Tim (Fat Face) all competed. Only Pat managed to qualify for the next day of competition but was knocked out in the last round. On being asked how he felt about not skiing in the final Pat said ìAt least I wonët have to climb up the f***ing mountain againî.
