Surf Quebec Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I lived in France 6 years and got back to Canada just but before the Swoard / Extremecarving Session start ... I would have gone to Zinal for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i see (and remeber) right, the guys referred are from stand (as seen from orange shirts) and i think they just crapped clean boards from stand instead looking for their owns. They are all genuine Swoard riders among them are both Jaques and Patrice :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's the 2nd rider in the video? The riding looked a lot like J or P, but the board looked like a Coiler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCrobar Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 March 2002, pretty sure this is when the Extremecarving site was launched. Amazing to see how three guys, with families and day jobs, have influenced the small alpine snowboard world in such a positive manner. Even though ECing is not for everyone one of the nicest things to see is how the rivalry around EC, for most, has all but disappeared. The live and let live, ride and let ride positive attitude and general good vibe seems to jump out of the computer screen when looking at the fantastic pictures and videos! Seems only good things happen when your main motivation is passion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Named List" is also pretty impressive!! Not to mention allot of work. Details, details, the European Carvers are very good with the details!!!

Peter Vu Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 I have been to Zinal in 2004 and had the honor carve with J&P (and got my butt kicked in the process ) but I have never attended any ECS. It is very tempting to join ECS 2010 (if I still have a job, :rolleyes:) so I am *thinking* of going there next year. Is anyone interested in heading to Zinal as the contingent of North American EC Team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
