Snowboarding to No-Boarding - Swedish DJ and music producer Magnus Asberg talks 4 decades of Chamonix

Magnus Asberg started coming to Chamonix from the age of 13 - first on a school trip, then making the 24-hour journey by bus every year. He grew up on skis, but being an avid skater, transferred his passion onto the snow. 40 years later, Magnus has gone from snowboarding to No-Boarding – riding the Chamonix slopes on a surfboard style snowboard – no fuss, no muss!

 

In this week’s podcast, the Swedish born DJ and music producer talks to me about how Chamonix has changed over the last few decades – how he moved from ski stores to clothing lines to nightclubs, and from Sweden to Chamonix to the UK - but how his passion of snowboarding has always brought him back to the Alpine town. 

 

Now, with a documentary in the works, he tells me his search is for snow this winter so he can complete the project – but if not, he says, there’s always Petanque!
