Las Lenas, Argentina Video Report: Proof That Wet Snow is Better Than Dry Snow Las Lenas generally has dry snow and is a rocky, sharky, ski destroying land. Last week, they got 5 feet of wet snow. The wet snow covered rocks, created pillows and filled things in like never before. People who love dry snow don’t understand that wet snow can make magic happen. If you know Las Lenas, you’ll be shocked by this video. Those rocks Adria is doing 360s off are usually bare, […] Conditions Report SnowBrains | September 9, 2014 1 Comment

Las Lenas Conditions Report: Riding the Famous “Torrecillas” Our reporters in Las Lenas, Argentina have been getting after it. On July 20th, 2014, they went after the famous zone of Torrecillas. It’s about a 2 hour hike and well worth it. The snow looks like it was smooth and OK but not perfect and that didn’t slow these guys down at all. Make sure to skip to 1:43 to watch Adria’s line. This kid has been going off lately. Again, this snow isn’t perfect, but the guy throws a huge 360 in a sketchy spot, then hucks a peppery nasty blind cliff and makes it all look easy. We really hope it snows in Las Lenas this year simply […] Conditions Report SnowBrains | July 30, 2014 0 Comments

Friday Fun: Stupid Big POV 360 Crash in Spain… This is one of the biggest 360s we’ve seen in a while. It doesn’t hurt our stoke level that this is our friend Adria. Adria threw this 360 at/near Baqueira ski resort in Spain. Yeah, Spain. Most people don’t even consider Spain when they think of ski trip. In reality, Spain has sick terrain. The Spanish freeride scene and the riders there are frothing. The terrain reminds me of Tahoe. Last year, this region of Spain got more snow than most anywhere else on […] SnowBrains | April 25, 2014 1 Comment
