Jérémie Heitz and Kye Peterson are synonymous with freeride skiing excellence. Both ski on another level, all while maintaining their playfulness and infectious psych.

Mountain of Angels episode 4/5: Watch how Kye and Jérémie deal with extreme wind, bad snow and a ultimately closed Engelberg ski resort.

Mountain of Angels: a local freeride series

The fact that Engelberg means 'Mountain of Angels' can’t be a coincidence. The Swiss freeride mecca is renowned globally for its big lines, consistent snowfall, and legendary mountain culture. In a series of five local episodes, we’re telling the stories of our angels. Six freeride skiers share their lives with us, each with their own unique connection to the place, their individual experiences, levels of proficiency, and approaches.

Before coming to Engelberg, Kye and Jérémie hadn’t skied together – nor met before – but they instantly connected, as many of us do when we find a kindred spirit. Struggling to find good conditions in the resort, that day was all about the right decision-making to find good snow, without taking on higher risks, and making even a bad day enjoyable.
