A Day With Tom Ritsch at Kitzsteinhorn | Downdays CORE SHOTS Episode 1

CORE SHOTS is a new series from Downdays documenting the daily life of our favorite freeskiers. The honor of kicking off the series goes to none other than Mr. Tom Ritsch!
Born and raised at the foot of the Kitzsteinhorn, Tom is an all-rounder in the very best way. Capable of crushing it in the park, the streets and the backcountry alike, Tom's mellow vibe and pure passion for skiing makes him one of the most likeable skiers we know, not to mention one of the most versatile.
We linked up with Tom last month on his home turf in Niedernsill, Austria. After morning coffee and oatmeal and a tour of the ski garage, we headed up the mountain for a tour of Tom's favorite off-piste runs before finishing the day with some hot laps through Snowpark Kitzsteinhorn.

I'm always amazed when someone can speak so eloquently in a second language. You can tell he loves his home mountain. Banging out those park laps too!

[@downdaysTV]

Ritsches is an absolute shredder. A true ATV. One of the nicest dudes to be around too!

[@Flickmarcy]

Tom is the man!! Had a night with them at a premiere in Plymouth and they are all such a humble, talented group of skiers
