Anne-Flore Marxer

Swiss/French snowboarder Anne-Flore Marxer won out at the Nissan Freeride World Tour this week. This was Anne-Flore's first time at the event, and a wild-card at that. It's one way to make a lasting impression.

She was quoted on the Powder Room as saying: "“The last three days have been very stressful and I’ve been really tense. But when I got to the top of the course I realized that is what I usually do! I regained my confidence and rode without hesitation. I’m especially glad that tomorrow is my birthday - I’ll have two reasons to celebrate tonight!”  You can read more about Anne-Flore in this post here.

As the snow threatens to swamp Ireland again, I wonder if we will ever get enough to do things like this here?
