Finally refreshed after days of heat....A must watch.

Sitting in my place in Melbourne in the crazy muggy heat for nearly 3 weeks now has begun to turn me a little nuts- less sleep and vivid jungle dreams makes me hungry for winter and the cold more than usual, I have reached the point of watching ski movies on my laptop at 3am.

But recently I have been refreshed. Who knew the internet could bring forth such delicious offerings as these.

It could only be the euros.

Imagine if you could mix the massive air-time of a freeride kicker with the light-weight versatility of cross-country skis......are you ready to see the real-life experiment?

I can't quite bring myself to describe this video as fresh but it is sitting somewhere between wow and 'what the fuck'.?

Ski de fond freestyle

*Just a little note for all those uneducated Anglais out there:

SKI DE FOND= Cross country skiing

This next video is surprising given the age old tradition of the blockhead Austrian ski instructor. Check out Innsbruck's and Coconut Film's latest answer to action sport. It's not urban jibbing. It's urban skiing.

Kicking it newschool- maybe a bit too new and a a little ahead of the times. Nevertheless, I won't be surprised when it becomes the height of cool to be doing Chapel St laps hooked up to a sports car in your old ski gear........watch all six episodes, http://vimeo.com/3853060 it is worth it!
