Tristan Picot Tragedy

As some may have heard already, it is with great sadness that we have to report the loss of Tristan Picot. While snowboarding in Jackson Hole this past weekend, an avalanche was triggered and Tristan tragically gave his life to his love for the mountain at the young age of 19. Hailing from Chamonix,

Tristan was just at the beginning of his career as a highly respected rider within the global community of professional snowboarders. Just starting to get the media attention his skills deserved, having recently been seen in both TWS #7 and Snowboarder #7, and with his style driven riding in this year's Absinthe movie, Vivid, Tristan's riding and passion for life will forever be remembered. The tremendous sadness of this tragedy can not be expressed with mere words alone so we extend our thoughts and deepest sympathy to his family and friends.

"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal." - unknown
