On February 28, 2008, Mt. Hood history was made.   Matthias Giraud intentionally skied off Mississippi head for the first time in history.   Seconds after getting airborne, he deployed his chute, glided gracefully down into the canyon, and skied into the history books as the first ski base jump on Mt. Hood.  Today on the Mt Hood Podcast we are honored to hear living history straight from the Super Frenchie’s mouth.    Hope you enjoy my conversation with pro skier Matthias Giraud.”
