It is IF3 this weekend in Annecy, so we got all excited and have come down early to get the team together, from the far flung corners of Europe, Andrew Matthew came in from Scotland, Oskar Pedersen – Sweden, Markus Fohr – Finland, Fredy from Switzerland, Quentin, Etienne, Raphael, Mickael, Sarah, Cyril all from France. So we are here in Annecy to hang out, do some wakesurfing, pre season training, some BBQing, eating and most likely a bit of partying. Oh and then we have IF3 from Friday- Sunday, good times.
Today, we had perfect weather at the lake, hanging out at V.P.V Club Nautique with Faction rider Arnaud Rougier taking the team out for Wake surf sessions. Followed by a BBQ at the club house – sounds tres grand, it was…
Nicolas Roubin was over to get some footage, which we will put up after the event but in the meantime here are some photos to make you jealous of our Wednesday chilling in the sun.
Team battle & singles cannon rail contest, winning team €3K cash, best trick on rail wildcard to Swatch Nines, best standout skier Prime Park Sessions pass, best unsponsored Völkl Revolt 96 setup!
Returning from a six-year hiatus, SKETCHFEST is an open team battle that consists of three different challenges. The teams, consisting of three freeskiers, will go head-to-head over the course of the day with the winning team taking home a prize purse of €3.000, - and the individual winning most standout performance claiming a week at Prime Park Sessions 2023.
With some absolutely mental entries, it was a tough job for our Team Auclair judges and NS staff to cut these down to five in each category. Great work to all who entered and see you next year!
