Joining me this week is Chamonix native, mogul master, freeride phenomenon, and although he may not always admit…total lover of fashion, and unmistakable style...yes, it’s Camille Jaccoux – oh, I forgot to mention, he started this brand here in Chamonix called Black Crows, apparently, they make pretty good skis. Throughout his life, Camille has attempted to do exactly what makes him happy – even down to creating his own skis so the mountain adventure is more enjoyable… and it seems to have worked! Although it was never in his plans to create a ski brand, along with his long-time friend and ski buddy, Bruno Compagnet, Black Crows was born. They call themselves ‘real skiers’ and for me, this interview proved how real Camille is at least…I’m yet to talk to Bruno…that’s an invitation by the way…Follow Black Crows Skis @blackcrows_skis for moreFor more on the amazing athletes and sports enthusiasts featured on the podcast, head to Instagram @samincham_thepodcast and Facebook.
