Alba
Pardo Tour guide;
After a powder filled week in Switzerland,
and a few great days visiting Zurich
with my good friend Katie Junttila and her adorable kids. I hoped my vueling.com flight to Barcelona to
start my adventure around southern Europe with
Alba Pardo. With some Swiss Francs exchanged to Euros, an awesome Spanish style
sandwich we arrived in Arinsal Andorra
for a few days at Vallnord Parks.
At
this point I'd like to give a quick mention to Alba being the best, nicest, and
most giving your guide ever!

Back to snowboarding, our Andorra
experience consisted of one day at Arinsal riding a super fun park built by ASP
snowparks where we rode all day then did a sunset shoot around 6pm. Then the
next day we headed to Ordino-Arcalis which is known for the free-riding to see
if we could come up with something a bit more creative...that we did.
After a few laps around the mountain finding nothing but sheets of ice, we
headed into the trees to check out the wood-park. Now conditions were nothing
near ideal, but I'd definitely say we scrapped snow and made the best of it
getting some pretty sweet shots actually. Andorra local David, who is joining
us on the road trip, deserves a shout out for getting upside down on a pretty
sketchy feature. With a quick break at the house and some packing we were off
ready to see what the road would bring us...
P.S.
Id like to thank Katie Junttila for being so hospitable and providing me with
an amazing few days in Zurich!
