Jaume and Marc, the voice of X Games Aspen
Experts who have spent years practicing, so are the voice of X Games in Aspen Esport3.
The Puigdengoles Jaume and Marc Salas leave their belongings for a few moments, snow skis and table respectively, wrapped in a new challenge: to be commentators X Games Aspen.
Where does your relationship?
Marc and I have known teenagers, when we lived on the same street and skate baixàvem to the square. Since then, we have shared adventures in the snow, he on snowboards and skis on me, but now we are much less than before, it is always a pleasure to agree with him as much in the city mountains.
And with winter sports?
Although we are both in town, from the moment when we began our family in this world, the snow became for us a passion that eclipsed all will stay and went on to set the pace for the Notro lives.
How did you become the expert on TV3 X Games Aspen?
Hehehe ... Although we will be the first time X Games commentators, is not the first time I have relationship with people around issues of TV3 snow and maybe that's why Miguel Rivas Team I called a month ago as to encourage me to do so. Anyone with the passion that we have, to know closely the participants and how the competition can do it perfectly.
Who do you see favorite Aspen?
Weather condition: it looks bad but not very good so they can be surprises if there is snow or poor visibility. In Ski Slopestyle, the thing is very hot. Henrik Hârlău is at its best, his style stands out among all skiers and does tricks like nose butter double rodeo 10 or 12 blunt than anyone else does and it will be very difficult to remove from the podium. Ski Slopestyle Women, Anna Segal and Kaya Turki rise high on the podium, no doubt. In Big Air, I want to see Gus Kenworthy Henrik Hârlău and, while not ruling in Brown and Mahler. In Superpipe, if the weather is good, Tanner Hall returns to the X Games after years of injuries and personal problems, could surprise the veteran safety and serenity.
As you see Queralt?
Queralt is very strong. Coming to the second Dew Tour and is very consistent so everything suggests that we will see the podium.
What do you think a rider like Shaun White?
A machine of progress, to be scored goals and achieve them decisively. Now struggling to establish itself as a major in Slopestyle and very worth a look in which surprise Aspen. It seems that you're shooting threes in practice so the show is guaranteed.
Expect some surprises in Aspen?
It will be interesting to see what can be done Tanner Hall returns to X Games generated a lot of expectations. Another is that it will be interesting to follow Vincent Gagnier Big Air. It is an animal and does tricks very surprising.
He, truncheon podiums!
