I was back in Haute Savoie last weekend and amongst other things, shot a ski mountain race, which I’ve done regularly for the last few years. The shooting conditions were way far from ideal, with rain falling at the start line in the morning.

The race, like a good meal, is in 3 courses. 2 ski mountaineering courses combined with one cross country ski course. Competitors take part as relay teams ( one for each course ) or, as individuals completing all three! It’s primarily a fun event, but still a tough undertaking, especially with knee breaking wet snow. Even with the conditions, spirits were high for everyone involved and even though filming it was quite demanding, I had a lot of fun.

Here is a highlights reel from the day. If you want to find out more about the race, or watch other videos from other years, then visit cenisebargy.fr ( in French )
