Hattrick at Polish Open
The road trip to Zakopane actually starts on Wednesday, including the consequences of a Wednesday night in Innsbruck. A part of the crew was displaced to some of Innsbruck finest localities by the Legs of Steel. This is why the departure time was changed without further ado from 8h to 10h at 5 o‘clock in the morning.
Polish Streets
On Thursday morning the downdays and Line traveling crew consisting of the Photographer Thomas Charry, Jussi Mononen and Jonee Puelz under the guidance of Line‘s „Mista Cash“ Korbi left to Poland. At the Chiemsee Roy Kittler joined us. The fact that it finally snowed after a dry period lasting for weeks implied a big disadvantage for us. The traveling time was extended about more than 4 hours, so in total we spent 14,5 hours on the road. Our 2 navigation systems both didn‘t know Zakopane, which didn‘t speed up our duration spent in the car, as well.

Eric Pollard’s Self-Edit(s)
Eric Pollard is a skier, an artist, a ski designer, and a film maker. His vision for Nimbus Independent has become reality traveling around the world filming what he wants, with who he wants. The best part is he gets to edit it how he wants. This all started from not being satisfied with how his segments were edited. Enter the famous Eric Pollard “Self Edit”. Even though EP’s day job has become making self edits (and of his friends), he still has time for Line to pump out a fresh one of his 2009 season.
Eric now has a FACEBOOK page, so you can be his fan and get updates from the road! Enjoy!
