Cody here posting up for Elyse cause she’s lost in the snowy wilds of Russia right now. From her reports the snow was tits deep all over the place and the shredding was insane. From my previous trip to Russia I know that Krasnaya Polyana with a meter of fresh is seriously one of the best ski areas on the planet. So with those two factoids combined, I know that Elyse is having the time of her life.
As far as the FWT contest went her placing wasn’t the greatest, but holy hell did she step it up for all the women out there. On the second contest day she sent a cliff that only one other guy attempted and led guys like Xavier de la Rue and Steve Klassen to claim that that was the biggest air they’ve ever seen a girl do. I saw a pic and let me tell it definitely was up there in the all time category. So even though the placing might not reflect it, Elyse definitely stepped it up for the ladies out there and I definitely can wait to see her accolades the rest of the year since it’s on January and that was one of the first hucks of the season for her. Way to kill it Elyse!
