In Gora Movie - Story 1 : Austria

Let’s get it started with Austria!! We couldn’t expect better conditions to kick-off the journey: 30 centimeters of fresh snow, an awesome terrain for backcountry skiing and snowboarding and a nice blue sky.

With just enough time to down our first coffee of the trip and to lace up our ski and snowboard boots we’re ready for the first day.

Our freerider Thomas Feurstein guides us around his local spot and shows us the insane potential that Silvretta-Montafon has to offer.

This first stop is also a great opportunity to discover Val and Tim’s lifestyle and the daily operations on their Nomads Bus, our new home for one month.

We continue on a high note with a new layer of fresh snow in Sankt-Anton-am-Arlberg, a few dozen kilometers down the road from Montafon.

Time for Thomas Feurstein to head to Andorra for a Freeride World Tour stop. Mat Schaer takes over, determined to show to everyone that he is without any doubt the uncontested master of nose butters.

We make the best of those incredible conditions during the last days in Austria, before hitting the road for the second destination of the trip : the Julian Alps in Slovenia.
