Episode 1 - season 7
Nice shot!
check out my skills!
you still need to train!
By the way it's still very dry, what are we going to do this year?
Horse riding, Pole Dancing, we did it all!
Would be great avoid it!
we aren't gonna do a porn movie don't we?
you're damn right!
Just got a text message from Bibi!
Hi Bon App' crew, following a cancellation we have 2 spots
for the Mountain Collective at Whistler. Are you in?
that's awesome!
we still need to finish our game though !
A swipe, I will swipe your ass!
So we left for good twenty hour trip to Whistler, British Columbia!
Here you go! Deal with it!
And going on a snow hunting trip with twenty people on the other side of the world
it's a hell of an organization...
I'm not sitting in the back, I will throw up !
To make the story short, The Mountain Collective it's:
Salomon team riders
ski boots, skis and clothing technicians
heads of Marketing
All together for a week in Whistler to discuss about the brand development and freeskiing.
After the first of the two hundred meeting scheduled in the week
we can finally go skiing.
But we still did another briefing in front of the hotel...
Because we were waiting for our ski passes we got another briefing!
Tony Lamiche who got struck by the flu was the missing one for this first day
Beside that we had a strong crew for this episode
And many more but the list would be too long
And we ran out of stupid nicknames.
100 bucks daily skipass, we were stoked to get it for free!
We got it!
It was time to face the artic cold of Canada.
It's weird to feel the winter again!
we were super excited to finally put our skis on and discover Whistler!
Don't be wrong they don't wait for you out there,
we had use our skins if we wanted to shred powder.
It's ok, it's not China!
On my side I had to hike by foot because Yvan told me I didn't need my skins for this trip....
I needed them....
Don't be a pussy
27559 feet, we are struggling big time!
Well done Ben!
Thank god our head of Marketing Ben Aidan did our track...
Well... on the last ten meters...
Even in Canada we use skins!My dreams are broken
they don't burn Kerosen anymore
The big advantage for this kind of week
is that you have your personal bootfitter with you
Once everyone did his instagram shot at the summit
we could finally taste the canadian powder.
Meanwhile, in a world where old men to get a flu shot
before we got here we didn't know that Mac Gyver was skiing like a ski guide!
And here we can say it: Best day ever !
We are better than in Maurienne (french alps valley)
Unfortunately Mountain Collective is not skking holidays.
Still one hundred nineteen seven meetings to go.
Good first day, now back to school!
We've learned Salomon marketing directions.
for the next years but it's top secret.
It was great to see Tony in good health again.
we won't lie if all these guys are pro skiers
it's because they hate spending their days sitting in a room.
And Seb Montaz gave us an update on social networks.
Because We survived the meeting we were allowed to enjoy a second skiing day.
Can we go now?
For this day our crew was smaller with
we hike and then
I didn't listen Cahuzac this time, I had my skins with me.
No cardio in Canada!
Meanwhile in a world where Alpinists are not fit
Here it's like a Hollywood, guys are shooting everywhere!
There's three Bon App crew at the same spot.
We had to show them who runs the "postal card turn" game
After a first good run we could move to the next spot
Listening food advises from Poutine boy.
well the cheeses are very old, lactose is spreaded inside...
We go up there, it's gonna be sick!
Damn ski is so good!
Weather conditions were perfect, we were lucky
Snow stayed cold which is rare in Whistler
I thought we would ski by gravity... we have to hike in this corridor.
The Dolomites !
only the "step master" left
And when you see the size of these steps you understand why it's called like that.
Come on! let's go up!
Our mountains are not like that in Quebec!
We are at poop shoot summit
we're gonna have some good powder lines!
We are called Bon Appétit for nothing!
After a bad sandwich and a frozen finger we could do our last run
thanks a lot!
It was time to get back to school if we didn't want a broken leg by the godfather.
this time it was Karl Lagerfeld's work shop
but it's top secret too...
we were far to be in bed, Tony could speak again.
talking about him, he was ready for safety workshop on the third day.
I feel better outside than inside!
yes Mountain Collective is this too
Salomon take advantage to have the whole team
to give everyone a mountain security update
in partnership with the local ski patrol
they set up several workshop for us to become David Hasselhoff
we started with a four victims arva research
then an avalanche simulation finding victims and doing first rescue.
Finally once you found the victim you need to be able to get him out
so we learned how to build a sled.
Canadian sausage!
what we do with him? should we leave him?
On avait sauvé tous les bout de bois
we collected all the wood sticks
stuffed him in
and tighten the burger eater
we could go meet Tony for the crack fall workshop.
you see I already know how to do an eight knot
Man, jetlag is killing me, I want to go to bed
I want to leave the fatty Galuchot down there.
No ski lift needed this year, we will do it one after the other
if you aren't in the hurry!
 it's better to be unconscious...
we've learned a lot and it was great to practice with our friends.
after this great day
we could enjoy this beautiful sunset
before drinking saké shots at famous Sushi Village.
New day, new crew,
This time it was the VIP day
beside Duff Man and Captain America, Kaj Zackrisson was with us
the happiest skier on earth
Let's do it, you see I'm gonna ski with Kaj Zackrisson today
Damn that was my dream!
Even thought we were with the VIPs, no heli drops for us
My cardio is still lame
I feel like I'm Rancho at Pierra Menta
we only had to follow our guides and enjoy the day.
When I will be a man I will be Kaj! Still stocked!
this place is beautiful
not sure I take a return ticket
don't hurt yourself here
It was great to have fun on the skis but they were waiting for us for ski testing.
you quickly ski down, test the skis and fill up the forms!
I set up your bidings.
Jean Phi who's developing skis for Salomon
gave us some work to test the new freeride ski range prototypes.
and to feel the skis you need good carving on groomed slopes.
In fact they are killing it!
don't write like pigs!
Great atmosphere!
We worked hard and our feedback will help him a lot!
we only one job left in our Mountain Collective to do list
A shooting with photograph Scott Markewitz
Basically he's the king of postal cards carving.
this time we've teamed up with Liv, Tony and Alex
154
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,240
For our last turns in Whistler
I'm gonna show him how we roll, get ready Scott!
I had to use my artistic skills to show Scott who's the boss.
Meanwhile Mister Photographer is having fun we are skiing on the flat.
For those who don't know Scott, he's one of the best outdoor photographer.
he made more than 400 magazine covers.
He's a french speaker American
and we appreciate that at Bon App
As you can see to make a postal card
you only use 10 square meters
and it's a lot of work for not much skiing.
what did you believe? Pro Skier is a real job!
old school skiing, we do nice tracks
thank god we can enjoy a little bit of skiing on the way down.
And this how our Canadian trip ends!
it's was really cool to be part of the Mountain Collective and shred with our team mates.
We hope we will bring back snow in our luggages.
we wish you all an happy new year
and we look forward to see you on the next episode.
Powder is so good, I'm not going home!
you don't say much now bearded man
You are fired Bon App' !
we are fired?
Your first appearance in Bon App' is not the greatest !
they will never believe is the boss
I'll be back!
