When the ski resort was already closed in Les Diablorets, Switzerland we had the chance to fly up to the glacier with a small airplane and ride the jumps up there just by our selfs. O'Neill organized the whole thing for us (the team). The jump was really good and it was such a relaxed atmosphere to ride the whole day into the evening sun.
After a bumpy flight we landed on the snow. The plane had skis to make it possible. But still it was scary. Snowboarding the jumps was definitely safer that day!
Flying Devil was the name of the plane.
quite a different boarding procedure.
