What another fantastic session!
Especially considering that the weather forecast had been poor two days earlier. According to locals such as Patrice, Boris and Stéphane, the EC conditions were the best this season. It had snowed a little during the week.The atmosphere at the stand, on the slopes and at the dinner was excellent, with all the Swoard fans and riders keen to improve their extremecarving (on Swoard, of course). The lessons were very popular, with boards available to borrow if needed.
During the evening, a small tribute was paid to "Petit Seb", who has left us and should have been present (see here). We think of him, no doubt carving up there.
Patrice presented the pre-production Dual3 in all four sizes! New graphics (which was appreciated a lot), new outline (in the nose and tail), and above all, unique technology for even better performance. Taro, who came especially from Japan, was able to test it and confirm this today, as did the Swoard team.
It should be noted that some black boards were tested intensively by Patrice, Arnaud and Etienne. Their smiles and enthusiasm spoke volumes. To follow in the coming months, but it's sure to cause a stir! 
There is no film of the event, as on Wednesday the cameramen decided to cancel filming (there is no point in filming on a white day). In the end, the weather was fine and the photos are magnificent. Please give us 1-2 weeks to process them within the time we have available, alongside our busy lives. We will make three ZIP files available to participants, one for each day.
We will keep you informed!
And you, give us your feedback and brief messages below! We know that social media makes people lazy, but the Swoard and Patrice team give a lot of their time before, during and after the event. Thank you! The date of the 24th ExtremeCarving Session is already known: 30th January to 1st February 2027.Thank you to all Swoard fans!
