Lincoln Loop
rider: Aurelien Ducroz

This jump is called a Lincoln Loop (the skier is doing a complete sideway rotation over himself), and was 17 meters high and 25 meters long.
We waited for one hour for the clouds to lower enough to reveal the Aiguille Verte and the Aiguille des Drus of the beautiful Mont Blanc Range.

Hey Tristan,

Good to see you. Very cool photo! I really like the symmetry between the snow-smoke and the clouds in the background, as well as the peaks shining through. Expert timing!

Cheers, Ralf
