Barbie's split ride!

Team rider for life and one of a kind personality Varvara Mitropoulos a.k.a. Barbie had some back-country adventures with the guys from the helveticbackcountry.ch a while agο at Vale Leventina in southern Switzerland – Airolo region.

They went for 3 days to Rifugio Carzonera where there is no water or heating, so they carried everything for 8 people (4riders and 4 filmers) in their backpacks.

The German TV show Bayerischer Rundfunk made an episode with their 3 day trip.

Even if you dont understand anything of what they are saying, (neither do we), 

you can see the smiles on their faces 

and you can definitely enjoy the view...

This is the episode in which you can watch Barbie's hiking and riding...

and YES we are jealous Barbie.

Barbie in the Bible!?!

Varvara Mitropoulos also known as Barbie, is the best female rider ever strapped on a snowboard in Greece. Period.
She's been riding in full speed and sick style at Helmos Mtn, since the early 90's.

  Now she is riding her Stepchild boards in Aroza/Switzerland but when she's not in the pipe or at the park she hikes all over the Swiss alps with a crew of  locals who are 100% commited to hiking and freeride!

 This crew put out a book, best discribed as the Swiss alps Bible. 

It contains a lot of details, maps and very useful tips if you want to put your skis/splitboards, avalance beacons and hiking boots in serious action!!!
