You know that feeling when you’re coming in on the home run? You may have had a vin chaud and be paying less attention than usual… when you hit a big bump.

SKIERS Samuel Anthamatten LOCATION Grandvalira, Andorra PHOTOGRAPHER Jeremy Bernard
The Freeride World Tour will once again be visiting Andorra this winter in a bid to find the top freeskier. This year the competition will be held in the Vallnord-Arcalís sector, home to the resorts of Pal and Arinsal, but Jeremy Bernard took this shot of Swiss skier Samuel Anthamatten in the Grandvalira sector, using a fisheye lens, with an exposure time of just 1/4,000th of a second to capture the action.
