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...

Une version plus accessible de la board de Jeremy Jones
Un profil identique à celui de la Jones, mais sans les fibres de carbone et de Kevlar et sans Boîte de Torsion pour la rendre plus souple et plus facile à rider. Développée pour les riders débrouillés à la recherche d’une board à fort potentiel.

Illustration (texte de Craig Melchiano)
Nous souhaitions prendre des risques en illustrant les problèmes environnementaux qui menacent les montagnes de l\'Alaska. Nous avons travaillé avec le même artiste que sur la Jones, Jon Wayshak. Cette illustration montre l’Oncle Sam, accroché au drapeau américain au sommet d’une montagne faite de barils de pétrole, se faisant attaquer par des aigles qui viennent reprendre possession de leur montagne. Techniquement, la planche a été travaillée de façon assez similaire à la Jones, mais le concept est beaucoup plus évident. C’est une de mes planches préférées.
