Spy Am, Colin Spencer is stepping up to the plate. He has been out there everyday this season, chucking his meat carcass, just getting every trick dialed in and putting them in his bag. Here are two videos of him sending it like a pro. Keep your eyes out for this young-en, he is about to blow up!
Hot off the press and ready to take on the heavy comp, the SPY all-star line up will be ready to grab gold at this year’s premier Winter X Games Europe in close to zero temps in Tignes, France March 10-12th.
Recent Vancouver Olympians, crowd pleasing favorite Louie Vito has been crushing the pipe all season while young gun Sarka Pancochova is slaying her practice runs with huge straight airs and smooth style and keep your eyes on Iouri Podladtchikov — he’s been stomping a double Mctwist 12! For Slopestyle, Frederik Evensen will be pushing the envelope with his undivided attention to perfection of jaw dropping spins with his mellow laid back style.
Back at it, fresh off his Stair Rail Battle win from Switzerland, JF Houle will be throwing down in ski slopestyle all the while technical savvy Canadian Charles Gagnier will be ready to impress. Time to make them go nuts, the crowd will be front and center to watch ski pipe rider sensation Duncan Adams compete in the inaugural Winter X Europe. All eyes on deck watch for these unstoppable SPY’s.

Gusty winds and heavy storms hightailed their way through the European Freeski Open forcing organizers to cancel its March 5th main freeski event in Laax, Switzerland. Alternatively organizers in the later afternoon unleashed the Stair Rail Battle down in the valley at the rockresort. Despite the last minute change up and harsh elements JF Houle crushed the comp yet again with a nose butter 450 on, pretzel 270 out.
JF has been on fire the past few weeks, also taking first in the L.A. Session at Les Arcs and 3rd at the Austrian Open at the Kitzsteinhorn Mellow Park.
“It’s been a very good trip for me. I can’t ask much more then 3 podiums in 3 weeks!” says JF.
