Video: Andreu Bombing Les 2 Alpes

Jul 30, 2013
by Tyler Maine  

Andreu didn't ride the slopestyle contest at Crankworx Les 2 Alpes and preferred to smash the berms in the park and ride down some big mountain lines in the upper part of the bike park.

Music: Egypt - Valley of the Kings

Filmed by Borja azurmendi and Nick Pescetto

 He clearly don't compete because competition sucks. He only wants to have fun on the bike. He's not member of FMB World Tour.

Like he said some times: judges are people without balls talking about people with balls.

 Andreu does enough contests, WTF are you talking about? Sometimes, judges are people with brains, talking about people without brains. You don't have to be able to do double backflips to be able to compare one against another. We have no sport if we have no contests. Andreu said little jumps make us look stupid. Totally true. Not doing contests because you don't like how you were judged makes you look stupid too.

 well i guess being a pro and being sponserd has its + and - sides
+ you can ride the best bikes you can have a garden with your private riding stuff you dont need to work your passion is your work
- you cant ride the bikes you really want to, you Always need to go riding where people want you to ride

so wherver you pro or not your never completly free, but still we riders are more free then many others

so;ethin else i heard someone saying that a trail was closed because of people skidding drifting their tires. isnt that the way it supposed to be and can you just repair the trail by adding dirt?

 Awesome, definitely one of my favorite Riders. Even on a DH bike Andreu kills it.

 Don't care what people say, if that was me, I would have been having as much of a blast as he seemed to be. Jealous.

 I remeber seen both of the brothers riding DH in Schladming, back in 2005, or something. They were two little kids, but smokin' fast, and VERY stilish. They both finished the 4x quallies with a backflip. And back in those days that was quite impressive. Don't know about the fitness side, but he and his brother both have the nuts and style for DH.

 Andreu's tutorial on how to destroy some tyres... Quin estil Andreu!

 Can't blame him for bombing the DH runs but def missed him on the slopestyle course. I heard the announcer say he was on the lift but no ss run... oh well. Sometimes you just gotta get your ya-yas out! www.pinkbike.com/photo/9093217

 That was SICK!!! I did the freeride lines he did in the video back in 2010, 2011 and yesterday but without the ridiculous style and speed of Andreu! RESPECT! Wish I'd met him and shown him some even longer crazier lines I tried back in 2011. Who said freeride was dead?!!!

 Why didn't he compete in the Slopestyle??

 Because smashing a bad ass downhill run is way more fun than doing a twisty jump spin kick for a judge.

 Hahaha my thoughts exactly but I was just wondering? For a freeride /slopestyle/whatever type rider I would have thought it would of been an event more for his liking rather than just a mates video of him riding some runs. I'd much prefer to see someone like stevie smith hit them corners with that dust, reckon the explosions would be equally huge but with a fair whack more speeds!!!
