Here is the video from the weekend on D-Stone. It turned out pretty cool… check the whole thing below!
Thanks to Migl, Basti, Balint, Yurij, balkan brotherhood and the rest of the Qparks crew for the good times…

Grilosode eight!
Done with winter
No boardshorts yet, I spent some more days in the mountains, this time Kitzsteinhorn with Untouched.
We got some last minute shots, a big lesson on sun radiation and sun burns and shitloads of laughs… more about the trip here and here… but hopefully no more snow shoots for few months, haha!
Dachstein Love clip
Love podcast is up! Check check…
Dachstein Love week
Snow shootings are pretty much over, glacier season is on… it is chill time.
Love organized a team week on Dachstein and unfortunately I had no time to film with them this year, so I was hyped to see my friends after a long time. It was more or less sun bathing, beers and doing laps with homies. I am sort of fed up with parks at the end of every winter, yet I had a blast! Now, I even plan to get back soon as possible, haha.
Thanks Seppi for everything… Love podcast should be online in a week, so stay tuned!
Winter is not over yet
T-shirts and spring sessions are full on, but it is not the time to store your big gun yet!
The Untouched crew is always powder hunting. We made a team trip to Austria with Grilo and Cilka Sadar, chasing after promised 35cm of fresh.
It turned out it was only half of that, but getting pow in middle of April is incredible enough. Judging by the forecast for next week there will still be plenty of opportunities!
Tons of pictures on Untouched blog…
Tirol with Untouched crew
I wanted to go back to Soelden with Untouched sometime in this season, as we had pretty successful shoot there last year. The mountains there have a lot of potential, but we could not go all out, while there was shitloads of sharks underneath.
This time we scored even better. New snow on Soelden and a promising Hochoetz resort were the bomb. It was a freeride mission basically, with our most experienced team member, Matevž Maček, and young skier, Andraž Šparovec.
We really pushed it from dusk till dawn each day, husling to get tickets, hiking woods and lines, late for the last lift everyday and then still filming scenics until sun went down.
It was hard core four days, but it payed off, like always when you put so much effort in it. More about the trip on Untouched blog…
Kitzbuhel with DC Europe
This weekend I had the coolest Qparks shoot in Kitzbuhel.
The DC Europe guys had a shoot on the big kicker, which was built a week ago. It is 18m table and super long inrun and landing. I was really happy when I saw it from the lift, I love to film big kickers and it is rare to get a shoot on stuff like this.
We had one really cold day, just doing laps around the park and one nearly perfect day with sun and no wind for the big one. The crew was super relaxed and motivated at same time, so it was fun and easy. I tried to film a follow from sled but it was way to shaky, so I had to do it “manually”. One of the fastest runs I ever rode with a camera, haha.
Clip in few days…
Stacking footy for Untouched
After six days in Schladming area (for longer reports check Snowbroader.eu or Untouched website) and one lay day at home, we went straight back. Austria is the place to be, if you are looking for powder right now, so we are trying to get footage any given sunny day.
Now that we have the Ujusansa van for the Untouched project, we are able to travel with some friends as well. This time it was Valentan, Rako and Mičo. Hopefully they will collect enough shoots to have parts in the final video as well!
We were on the mountain with the first lift in the morning (I do not remember ever being that early anywhere, haha), but it was a great decision, while lots of other film crews got the same plan. Kicker shots, powturns and stacks of b-roll checked!
Austria with Untouched
Finally everything got good for backcountry filming, the base is set and there is enough fresh above, so the Untouched crew went filming to Austria.
Maček, Pristo, Katja and me went to Planai&Hochwurzen and we took some friends with us as well. One “seasoned pro”, Tadej Valentan and one “powder rookie”, Žiga Rakovec, haha.
We had Domen joining us the second day and Dejan Hodžič and Luka Podlogar were also in the area with filmer Matej Gostinčar, so we split in two groups and tried to get the best of it.
For two days we have been mostly in the woods of Hochwurzen, filming cliff drops, while the other part of the group went to Flachauwinkel and got some kicker shoots!
Today few guys went home, few went to Italy with Elan, but Maček, Tadej, Žiga and me prolonged our stay in the area and built first kicker of the season. It is on! Check back for more in next days…
