Summer ITW of Xavier De le Rue - PART I 2008-06-24

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 162

Snowboards - Boards - Men - Freeride - Freeride series -

The lightest, most precise, uncompromised, all snowboarding machine.

Super light and super punchy boards with Twin Freestyle, Allround or Freeride shapes for technical 40+ days riders.

Launched 3 years ago when Doriane Vidal, JF Pelchat and Jeremy Jones wanted to swap their THC core with something lighter and more punchy, the Works series have taken riding to the next level and created a category of their own: all snowboarding.
No matter if you’re lightweight or heavy-built, if you ride parks or drop cliffs, that line will take you where you want to go, but only better, faster and higher.
