Sad news for anyone who put in some turns with
RTM snowboard School in
Courchevel . Tom who was the T in
RTM, has died of a heart attack. Anyone who knew, or was taught by Tom, will know that his love of our sport infused those around him. But Tom wonÃt just be remembered for his love of snowboarding or his bad shirts, he was also a great bloke. He always lived his life to the full and with a smile on his face.
I lived in
Courchevel for five winters and IÃd always be amazed, when following Tom on my board, at the line heÃd take. HeÃd spot hits and features that IÃd of boarded past for years without seeing. And thatÃs how he took on life, always from his line and always looking into the next couloir. He earned a lot of respect from me for that.
He will be missed by all who had the pleasure to ride with him and think of him as a friend,
Courchevel wonÃt be the same without him.
