Snow conditions this year are really good. I remember when I was in Laax last January then snow was quite bad and weather too warm. Now it's dumping snow all the time, there are so many powder days and temperatures are perfect to keep the snow. Steven is measuring snow:

There were some really stormy days and most of the lifts were closed. However, every time we managed to get safely to Nagens. One day it took 3,5h to get to work (instead of 30 mins) and there were days when we got lift by pistenbully.

Plaun after storm.

Closed mountain means lots of untouched powder. Mhmh, so good:

I wanted to upload some really nice GoPro powder photos/videos of my powder day but there was some kind of file error and nothing came out. Sometime nex time.

Some Reelika's photos. She won the "weather lottery" and got one really good powder day:

I got that kind of day...

Visibility was so perfect that I even didn't understand if I was snowboarding up or down, left or right.

But that was nice morning:

One day we had a chance to see how the kickers were made in front of Nagens. They were build for some kind of school groups. 2 jumps after work every day yes/no/maybe? (no)

At the end of February is taking place annual Burton European Open. This year there's space theme and you can see that the preparations have already begun:

And finally, the photo update of my playground. Got all these photos from Snowpark Laax Fb page, thanks.

On 21st of January there was a small jam behind Riders Palace. Three keywords: good riders, lots of fun, cold weather:

Maarja and Riho

That's local hero Nicolas Müller and I swear there's one guy who looks exactly like him (just younger). But his name is Florin and met him at Ping Pong night which are held in Riders Palace Lobby. I go there every Thursday and last time there were both "Müllers" playing around the table. Ha ha, confusing.

Pretty exclusive views from the hotel window.

After every jib or every jam there's always an afterparty. This one was in Indy, music was pretty okay, saw many friends and this was again the night when I crashed my bed at 5 am. Didn't have to work the day after but seriously, who put glue in my bed???

That's Adrian, works with us (sometimes).
