Borderline friend Xavier de le Rue is back with another season of strapping his feet to a board and falling off frosty things with style.

Back in the day, I had a friend that worked at Killington mountain in Vermont. We used to go skiing on off-days, when there weren’t big crowds, and we’d go under the warning ropes and ski down some of the closed trails. It’s an exhilarating feeling to go where you’re not supposed to.
