7 days to go.

2011-01-19T04:41:00.001-08:00

7 days and I'll be out of here, finally skiing and start filming. Can't wait. Here's my motivation for now:

January.

2011-01-17T11:26:00.000-08:00

I got to spend the last 48h at home in S-Chanf as a little break from the library and my books to recharge my battery a little for the nxt 8 days till exams. Here are the pictures from the last two weeks found on my iphone:

la baracca the day I left to Basel.

my view in the past 2 weeks...

my little recharge.

my view for the next 8 days...

A thanks to Tara and Alesch who made my day shredding a lot of fun!

Btw: The four10skiing got a new blog where you will find a lot of action/fun things to read in the near future. Stay tuned.

25 and 2010.

2010-12-31T09:03:00.000-08:00

Wow, time is flying when u have a good time. I turned 25 last monday and just remember the day I had my 18th birthday as it was yesterday. I feel like it's all just beginning so I enjoy being 25.

2010 is going to end tonight at midnight. When I look back on that year I have so many good stories and moments I will always remember. I want to say thank you to all the people who made my year such a good one. 2011 is gonna be just as good.

Here's my last picture for 2010.

See you in 2011, see you tomorrow.

Merry Christmas.

2010-12-24T13:36:00.000-08:00

Someone must really like me up there. I got the best present mother nature can do: POW.
It rained in St.Mo so it snowed up on the mountains. A LOT.

Got to ski with my buddy Andy and Mike on Corvatsch. We had some good runs, sick pillows and a descent lunch. Thanks boys for making my day.

24.12. 00:12

good moments at Baracca.

no words.

Luc came from Ardez to S-Chanf and we are having a fun dinner and drinking wine. Good times. Thanks bro!

Merry Christmas to everyone.

love, fabi

Pre-Christmas.

2010-12-22T13:14:00.000-08:00

Uni is done for 2010, my season just really started and I had some really good days shredding in St.Moritz and Scuol. Forecast looks really good for the christmas days. BOOM.

A few pictures:

Scuol got a nice little early season line together. Sorry Corviglia but u SUCK.

Working at Baracca, skiing with friends and a good forecast for the nxt few days. I love the days right before christmas.

Thanks for stopping by. fab

friday. again.

2010-12-08T04:28:00.000-08:00

I got to ski Corvatsch on a friday again after a pretty good snow fall thru the week. Good conditions and some fun lines under the lift.

Furtschellas Couloir, 9am.

Here's a little edit from friday, nothing special but at least something. Enjoy.

Wednesday-Sunday. Recab.

2010-11-29T06:00:00.000-08:00

Leaving on a wednesday evening to go skiing is always a nice thing to do. I got to ski with Cyril on thursday. Pretty banger day with a lot of untracked snow.

The city race in St.Moritz organised their first freestyle comp and its was pretty ok for a first time. We got to ski in the middle of the village and - even more important - got to ski as a team. 3rd place, pretty happy.

Thanks boys!

Thanks to everyone who made this weekend very memorable and thanks for the cool event. We had a blast!

Corvatsch opened saturday. We had a blast on untouched deep pow. Thank you!

I'll be back mid next week with news from the city race.

music.

2010-11-19T05:43:00.000-08:00

Many people kept asking me about my music I listen to and I love to get some new music from people around me. I figured that sharing my music is something I should do right here, right now. Here are my favorite 7 songs for the moment:

. Eskmo - Cloudlight

. Boys Noise - Jeffer

. Cassius - I love u so

. Kid Cudi feat. MGMT - Pursuit of Happiness

. Six60 - Choice of the Chosen

. Kings of Leon - Birthday

. Adam Smith - Night drive

I hope u enjoy listening to them. I highly recommand to check out Soundcloud, a very cool music platform. Oh and btw, its snowing on my home mountain and the forecast looks good so check back soon for a new edit and some contest action.

Pce.

first!

2010-11-13T10:33:00.000-08:00

The first proper snowfall turned Diavolezza into a massive playground on thursday. I got to ride with the new Armada JJ. The conditions were good but rocks everywhere, so: really bad scratched ski and a fucked hand.

Here's the little video I got together before I hit my hand on a rock and my day was over.

Diavolezza: first freeride. from Fabian Gattlen on Vimeo.

Weekend.

2010-11-07T14:12:00.000-08:00

Wow, what a weekend! The boys came over and made my weekend at home very memorable.

I lost a bet against Mati: eating a whole plate of garlic at lunch vs. shirt-less skiing all the way down to the parking lot. Skiing naked in november isn't too much fun. Mati's garlic smell isn't either.

(sorry for quality)

We had a very fun night out with a nice dinner and some friends @a bar in St.Moritz. Thanks everyone.

Some sunday afternoon swimming due to very very bad weather.

We drove back to Basel tonight and here I am, ready to get some sleep before enjoying some university life the next 5 days.

Check back soon.

Pce

Btw, here's a dance video to the very sick song by BoysNoise. Pretty crazy.

Fridays outside of the box.

2010-11-06T13:21:00.000-07:00

Yes, i love fridays.

I spent the day digging and shaping some boxes/rails on Diavolezza, mounted some ski bindings and had a fun shred with Patrick, friend and owner of workshop in St. Moritz.

Unfortunately I had to realize one more time how narrow minded some people are to really think skiing is gay, stupid and that snowboarding is still "so extreme". I guess some people just haven't made it yet to think outside of the box.

Mati and Julien are coming over for the weekend. Pretty cool to have friends here I usually don't get to spend to much time with during the week.

2010-10-27T05:12:00.000-07:00

I met Hans from Packline this morning near Zurich to pick up our roof box. It's pretty, no? I can't wait to fill it with my skis on friday and go shred.

Weekdays.

2010-10-21T13:29:00.000-07:00

I had a very cool weekend in Zurich for the freestyle.ch with some very special moments. Here's my edit plus some stills.

Oakley invited us to the "Like A Lion"- Premiere in the Amalgan Store. Pretty epic night with free drinks, Cali P and Tanner going nuts and a very impressing movie.

Thanks Tanner for having us, it was awesome.

Here are some more stills I got from our trip to brazil. Thanks to Hacky and Dani for the amazing stay at their hotel. If you ever plan the kite trip with 100% garanteed wind and a beautiful place to stay, that's the place to go.

I'm home now after a very long trip and a very bad experiance with TAP airlines. They SUCK!

Freestyle.ch is on nxt weekend including Oakley-Party, Tanner Hall's movie "like a lion", Red Bull support and some filming/photography. This event always is my beginning of winter season. Early season shred in 2 weeks. STOKED.

Pce and out.

Brazil Pt.1

2010-09-08T11:40:00.000-07:00

Brazil is amazing and truely the windiest place I have ever been to. The wind comes as garanteed as the sun rises in the morning. Here's whats up from our first half of the trip.

TAP Airlines didn't wanna wait for our flight from Zurich so we got to spend the night in Lisboa. Very cool city!

Winter Season 09/10 is over. I can't believe how fast 90 days on snow and 6 month went over. Time flies when u having good times. Weather-wise we didn't have the best winter though. I will keep as many moments in my memories as I can. My motivation and hunger is bigger than ever. Thanks guys for all this.

Corsin and I decided to chill in Basel during the week. Did some bowling, a lot of beer, enjoyed some boring lessons in class, played a lot of Kendama, some BBQ, Zürich and than back to S-chanf.

We went to Samnaun on friday. Sickest kicker line I've seen so far!

massive 5 tail.

a little gopro-screenshot.upbox.450 out.

Hit the park on Corviglia on saturday. I guess some people haven't looked around and realized that there's some good park going on.Samnaun, Scuol, Lenzerheide... Hope they will step up their game and start to take feedbacks serious and build jumps which work.

Saturday and sunday we set up some boxes and shot a bunch of video and pictures. Here are the photos, edit will follow.

peace.

Scuol. Best park I have seen all winter. I guess there are some people who made my days there so epic and full of progress. 5 with diffarent grabs, Zerospins, Switch spins. Progress comes with good jumps and Scuol had some!

four10 is no longer just a blog by me but a project with 4 of us. flo - corsin - luc - fabi. Cheaaaah.

Here we go. The last 3 weeks have been pretty eventful with a lot of work, skiing, university, a surprise visit from the US and driving in my car... Had good times with so many of you, thanks! Here are some shots. Not much but at least something.

Scuol with Corsin. Best park I've seen in a long time!

Andy.

Stoked on the EPIC weather!

Stoked on the usual 3h-sunday night drive back to uni-town.NOT

Congrats to Luke on a 3rd and to Corsin for a 1st at the Local Hero Comp which went down last weekend in Scuol.

Oh and btw today I got the news that some really smart people made the decision to organize a Big Air Comp for snowboarders only. That helps so much to bring our small community together a little more, don't you think? How cool is that?!

peace

BagJump.

Paolo is the man of the weekend! He made it and organized a epic little camp with a BagJump which made jumping as safe as it gets. Many flips and new tricks were done. STOKED! Thanks Paolo for the organization and thanks Andy for the hyphy weekend! Here's the video and some stills:

It's been my 33rd day on skis now in a row. Shinbang, fucked toe and a sore back tell me it's good that i'm back @university nxt week during the weekdays. Here are some shots i took last couple of days.

Found this pillow line on a spot many people drive by every day but no one has seen the potential of it. Gotta wait for the nxt snowfall to hit it.

That has been the weather up here for the last week.

Proud on that one!

Well, I'm gonna be riding the park all week now and sat/sun a camp will take place with a jump bag! Stoked on that, wanna get some new things done. rumors say that the boys come home from Japan on saturday, YEAHH!

Here's a little "collection" I found on Romans FB pictures from Niseko. No comment!

shots from last 2 days.

2010-02-24T18:27:00.000-08:00

Spent the last couple of days on Corvatsch. Epic snow and good times!

Furtschellas.

This little fucker crossed my line just after I left.

We went back to the kicker spot and got some building going. A descent size kicker was the result but we only got like 1-2 jumps each before we ran out of energy. more to come from that...

Throwing a backie on the second try, no biggie... PROBS!

peace and out.

sunday.

2010-02-21T15:48:00.000-08:00

It dumped all friday so powder finally made it to the valley. We tried to get some shots together but all we had is a few fails, epic falls and a lot of sweat. Here're the shots.

building on that perfect spot...

...hiked up...

...before we had to realize that the kicker was to small.

.Yes... and the shape sucked. Gonna rebuild it on tuesday.

pillow line.

pillow line 2.

Skiing with friends is always fun and good times but there's one person who changes my skiing every day and makes me a better skier. Luke.

Skiing with Luke sometimes is "no money for food", no money for petrol" and smelling ski boots BUT also creativity, motivation, new tricks every time and just always good times. Thx bro for all.

peace

a perfect day.

2010-02-16T09:39:00.000-08:00

YEah! what a day! been looking for that zone so long and finally the conditions were right to do some shots there. not much to say, just super stoked and tired... off to la baracca.

stay tuned!

diavolezza.

2010-02-15T09:25:00.000-08:00

Super cold St.Moritz got filled up with all the tourists from everywhere. I guess the Audi Quattro with 4 chains on a dry road gives an idea what's going on... Here some shots of the last couple of days. Had a fun day with Tobbe and Simon searching some good spots. Forecast says snow all week thru. STOKED!

peace.

slow.

2010-02-11T11:04:00.000-08:00

Not much going on the last couple of days. These 2 pictures are all i got. A "Happy Birthday" to Japan! YEah bro!

hiking

a good way to spend a downday

Oh yes, we found this perfect zone up on Corvatsch without a single track. Gonna hike up tomorrow or saturday to do some filming.
