Poster: A snowHead
|
In a case of very bad timing, the issue of Fall-Line hat came out during the week had him doing their WTF? photo.
Obviously, they couldn't do anything about it - by the time the news broke the magazines would have been fully printed and on their way to the shops, but it still felt a little sickening when I reached that page and realised who it was

I look at it the other way. It's a tribute to someone nuts about skiing and talented with it. His time came too soon, and it's a lesson that the mountains are a dangerous place to be and play.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Very unfortunate that someone should try and capitalise on Jamie Pierre's death. A press release has gone out today from Essential Travel and part of it says:
What: First UK company to incentivise skiers (and boarders) to wear helmets by discounting insurance policies for those who do
Hook: Beginning of ski season / Death of Jamie Pierre on 13 November 2011 highlighting the risks on the slopes / 75% of our surveyed customer base admitting they would be more likely to wear helmets if it saved them money
Who: Essential Travel (part of Thomas Cook), Ellis Brigham, Headway (brain charity)
The aim of this campaign is to encourage people to be safe - please support us.
Just watch the press pick up on this and relate his death to lack of lid. Mad.

I could have taken that 255 foot cliff with just as much style and skill as he did. Nutter.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

It was a little unsettling.
