En la vecina estación de Les Deux Alps, Alpe d'Huez, se disputó la MEGA-AVALANCHA anual.
Este año hubo bastante más nieve que el año que fuimos a verla nosotros y la corrieron Galaneitor, Pequeño y Angelo.
El video onboard es del rider Pau Reixachs, un máquina de la disciplina y mirar si hay pavos delante de él.
Para los que se están planteando una MEGA, que vayan atendiendo.
La cleta es una SC Nomad con talas 36 RC2 160, full aire.
Como todos sabemos inglés menos Zapatero, os dejo el texto original de su

Pay attention to:
- Remy Absalon crashes (the guy in blue) in the start.
- Cool overtaking jumping in to offcambra bit of snow.
- First crash with my fine ass on the rocks when was going like hell!
- Nice battle with the frenchman Olivier Navarro, (green bike/guy) wich it looks he did not pull the night before... more explosive power but overtaking him later at my pace.
- HORRENDOUS CRASH/INJURIE when was following the guy in front cutting a small chicane wich i did not tried before. Maybe undercocentration cause it wasn´t a too dificult bit, did my right hand not hold strong enought and slipped off with the ugly consecuences you can see...
NOTE that ellbow dislocation is one of the most painfull injuries you can have. Even some people get uncounscient due to the extremme pain wich it tooks to me more than 2h, 3 morphine injections and one general anesthessia
- Dangerous HELICOPLTER boarding : Man! cause the thing did not land to the ground cause it was so steep I was shitted on my pants thinking maybe those wings would cut us in half cause so close to the ground and we just blow there!
