Just a quick bit of news to boast of a new English born Ski talent.

This fab competition which takes it's finalists from all over Europe - Finland, Sweeden, Germany, Slovakia, France and Italy - this year also included a 13 year old English free-ride skier who qualified 2nd in Chamonix at the end of February and earned a place in the finals amongst some awesome riders

Wearing number 9 (blue Oxbow jacket and POC helmet) Elliott held his own in both the Free-ride on Friday and Freestyle on Saturday despite white-out conditions!

Big up to North Face for putting together this fab competition for young riders and fingers crossed for Elliott's next comp!
