Hagop Snowboarding Saas Fee

I'm working as a host at a hotel called 'La Collina' in Saas Fee. Its owned by a wicked old swiss dude called Cesar, who lives upstairs, & owns half the town. I snowboard or ski every day.

This is me when its snowing:




& When its sunny:




The rest of the time I'm working or sleeping

the snow photo was taken after a particularly long day of work - I finished at 3 & it was snowing hard, we were pretty sure the lifts were closed. So me & Amelia went for a walk in the snow. we turned right out the chalet and walked up the hill to the 6 mile Hannig toboggan run, which I rode down until i spotted a 2 foot drop that had been shaped into a jump, and that i'd seen other riders sessioning from my balcony a few weeks earlier. i hit it a couple of times, really nice shape, and a good jump for trying spins as it launches you horizontally rather than upwards. however since then the snow has melted & the runup is grass : ( looks like i've missed my chance to land a 360 off that one.

the sun photo was taken on my warmest day here so far - it registered 18 degrees!!! so i rode in shorts, t shirt & body armour!!! great fun but when doing a sharp heelside edge the snow was flying up my legs!!!!
