NICOLAS MÜLLER

Nicolas Müller’s fluid approach to freeriding has made him the living, breathing, embodiment of snowboarding’s soul. His take on natural terrain involves utilizing an uncanny eye for uncommon lines, complimented by both his timeless style and superlative agility. In Absinthe Films’ Ready, Nico once again sends a cinematic postcard with the simple message, “Wish You Were Here.” Whether he’s enjoying a mini-shred McTwist with one foot in his binding or atop a megapeak with two feet of fresh on its face, Müller always makes it happen, easy-style.
