Fumble live in concert

A friend’s and former supervisor’s band’s Fumble lately got this very cool part with Salomon FreeskiTV. Congrats Rami!

I really appreciate this feat – I’ve known these guys since the early 1990′s and seen the band evolve from the early Grunge/skate punk days. I guess the band even had some years hiatus at some time while the guys concentrated on other things in life. But now they are rocking harder than ever again!

Fumble’s part starts at around 3.00 in the clip below. The clip itself is pretty cool too – Mark Abma skiing Alaska for the first time, a hairy crash and amazing recovery from a Swedish super-skier Kaj Zachrisson and just world class big mountain skiing in Alaska. Pretty much stuff that makes you stoked to go skiing immediately!

Mark Abma is one hell of a skier for sure. And IMHO Salomon has been stepping up a notch with their latest freeski offerings, especially with Czar and the coming Shogun; Abma’s pro model with super “poppy” bamboo core!. Check out Salomon team testing the Shogun in Chile on another Salomon FreeskiTV episode. Btw. this reminds me alot of Chile trip a had some years go – read more on the post, “Skiing in Chile; Resort Review – Termas de Chillan”.
