Xavier has now finished the season, he's going to have a sporty nice summer. Questions and answers to a freerider:

Rossignol: After a really fat season, what are you going to do this summer? Any plans?:
Xavier De le Rue: At first this summer, I will stay and rest at home a little bit in the Pyrenees, to spend time with my wife and my daughter. I will have surf sessions in Biarritz and I will also do rock climbing. This summer will be the ocassion to have a small surgical operation to take some old screws off my shoulder ! Then I will travel, first in Argentina where I've got a photoshoot, then in Australia for holydays. I've also won the prize of the "Oxbow back to powder" contest which is a trip to Hawaii with the legender pro surfer Laird Hamilton ! For end october, I will go to Antartica for two weeks, where I will go on board from Ushuaïa. Activities planned are free rando, snowboard and kitesurf.

R: You talk about rock climbing and kitesurf, is there more sports that you practise during summer?:
X: A part from  rock climbing and kitesurfing, I do mountaineering, surfing and also lot of biking.


Part II coming soon...

WORKS 155

Snowboard - Boards - Men - Freestyle - True twin -

The idea behind the Rossignol Works series is to offer the highest performance on the strongest and lightest possible boards by upgrading the construction of the top-of-the-line models.
Technically speaking, you take a Decoy 155, keep the twin shape, deep progressive sidecut radius and stiff tip/tail but remove everything that\'s inside.
Then throw in our in-house Honeycomb core, blend it into our super versatile Dual Torsion Box and you end-up with a product that outclasses everything else on the market.
The Works 155 is JF Pelchat and Mathieu Crépel top pick of the year for all terrain freestyling.
Jibbing, parking, piping, ripping, switching, dropping, rocking and rolling, welcome into a new style of snowboarding. Core: WHC with Dual Torsion Box C/K
