Snowbound Surprise: On the Road to a Swiss Chalet & Ski Festival ❄️🚐🏔️

CarveCast Episode 32

I wasn’t planning this trip… but here we are. Driving through snow covered Jura towns on the way to a chalet in Les Collons, chasing conditions, fresh snow, and whatever the mountains throw at me next.

This episode is raw and real. Recorded on the road with live audio, travel thoughts, and that proper snow day buzz. Plans are loose but big… Four Valleys exploration, possibly Zermatt, maybe Crans Montana, and heading to the Stöckli Ski Festival to get eyes on next season’s gear.

I also break down recent trips including St Moritz and the two day Zermatt challenge, plus what’s coming next for CarveCast even with a few filming and audio hiccups along the way.

If you’re into proper ski trips, last minute missions, and behind the scenes of how this content actually comes together, this one’s for you.

🎿 Expect:

• Road trip vibes through Switzerland

• First thoughts heading into Les Collons

• Four Valleys plans

• Zermatt and Crans Montana possibilities

• Stöckli festival preview

🎿 Welcome back to The Carve Cast – Episode 31

In this episode I catch up on one of the most intense ski periods I have ever had, covering recent trips across some of the most incredible resorts in Europe.

🇨🇭 I talk about skiing the Four Valleys, staying in Les Collons, exploring Verbier, Nendaz and Thyon, and why that whole area deserves far more attention than it gets.

🏔️ I also headed back to Zermatt, where we took on a ridiculous challenge… skiing every single slope in Zermatt in just two days. Every blue, red, black and yellow run, with only two minutes to spare.

🚁 That trip also included helicopter skiing above the Matterhorn, filming with the PDS crew, and creating one of the biggest ski challenges I have ever attempted.

✨ Then came my first ever visit to St Moritz, which completely exceeded expectations. Huge wide pistes, frozen lake views, heli access on Corvatsch, night skiing and one of the most impressive ski destinations I have experienced anywhere.

⛷️ I also talk about:

🔥 Why St Moritz has gone straight into my top ski resorts

🔥 Future plans for Engelberg and the Stöckli event

🔥 Skiing with instructors and creators across Switzerland

🔥 What is coming next on CarveCast

If you enjoy ski travel, resort insight, gear talk and real mountain experiences, this one is for you.

🎙️ CarveCast Episode 30 – The Zermatt Boot Fitting Special

Back in Julen Sport, Zermatt with Tim for a full deep dive into proper ski boot fitting… and this one completely changed my setup.

I went in thinking my boots were dialled — and walked out in a smaller shell with a true performance fit.

We cover:

⛷️ Why most skiers are in boots that are too big

📏 The truth about mondopoint sizing

🦶 Shell checks and heel hold

🧠 How ankle & hip mobility affects your boot choice

🖨️ 3D printed Moxxis custom insoles

🔥 ZipFit liners and what they actually do on snow

🎯 Performance fit vs shop comfort

If your boots aren’t right, your skiing will never feel right.

This is the biggest upgrade you can make.
