BIG AIR PROJECT ON KANIN MTN.

Wazaaaap...the Kickstand is back with a new project going on in Slovenia! booyah...

This time i made a decision to speak with managers of Kanin mountain,the only one left with a snow for actually skiing and not only barbecueing...And we came out with a plan to get a big air jump done for us...It is actually the idea of us since the last year: to build a jump at the end of a season, have some good sessions with some sick filming and photoshooting going on and have tons of fun flying true the air...None of us actually didn't work on that so i decided to get us into managing mode and try to settle with the Kanin ski resort to build us a special jump (first one that size in Slovenia) so we can film for our new slovenian snb/ski movie coming out in fall...
The kicker is set on the only possible good location...the lift is not working on that area and we have lots of space and almost 7m of snow under our feet:) The views from some camera angles are sick and i am telling you that at the sunrise at 6am there will be some action going on in the air...

Check out the first 3 days progress with one cat and you will understand how excited i am everyday after work on mountain;

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER

Yoooo...after 3 slovenian freeski tour comps i am back on track...feeling great to win the last comp and claim the whole tour which has gained respect in Slovenia in this season...i still have to figure out some sistem for me not organising things on comp day but...so i won 1st slopestyle stop, 3rd on halfpipe stop and 1st on big air stop...finally got some money to eat better meals again and to do some filming in next month...




Plans for summer???...at the moment i am waiting for confirmation to work as a ski instructor in Australia and than in september some training in New Zealand and some Bali surfing at the end of september...I hope this season will pay off for me in the next one with some better results and hopefully some more budget from sponsors to compete and film even more...
