TJ Schiller launched the site that we have all wanted from a pro athlete in the FreeSki industry. What we have here is a, FINISHED, blog with so much more. I am sure it will build a strong following fast. This season we will see what TJ can do. So stoked.
CoreUPT Does Good For Mountains
SkierRealm just received a message from CoreUPT telling us their new planks will be called the Big Balls skis. They are produced on a made to order basis keeping them very limited. CoreUPT is doing good by donating a couple pairs for private auction to raise money for the Mountain Riders Association. The French Mountain Riders coordinate and establish ‘Green-Events’ and ‘sustainable development’ charters for mountain resorts to help clean up our slopes. We have to say “good work” to French Ski company CoreUPT.
French Ski company Coreupt might have been a little intoxicated when they decided these skis would be a good idea. To me it looks like they took a pair of K2 Hellbents, made them a little wider, a little longer and cut those tips right off. I guess I should look at it with open eyes and not knock them until I try them. We will have to wait and see what the production models actually look like.

As everybody knows, JF injured himself during the X-Games slopestyle, and he couldn’t participate to the finals… So thanks to him, TJ was able to participate to the slope, because he was the first on the alternate list !
Therefore, TJ won the slope, closely followed by his friend Colby at the third place ! But here isn’t the point…
All the staff CoreUPT.com and the riders wish JF a good recovery, hoping to see him again, as soon as possible.

Hello Mr. Schiller. Welcome back to a Skier’s Realm. There is no better feeling than clicking back into a pair of bindings after dealing with the struggle of recovering from an injury. According to a source close to TJ, he still has worries about the life of his career and how well his knee will hold up this year. With the amount of work TJ Schiller has put into the rehab process, there is no doubt in my mind he will be strong enough to make a huge impact in the skiing community this season.
Resorts all over the US are starting to open but they do not have snow like this. Looks like CoreUPT Skis has the location on lock. Must be nice to get the deep stuff this early in the season. Hopefully we will get some more shots like these throughout the season.
As we said last time on your explaining videos, CoreUPT is a brand created by riders, for riders. And Today, it was snowing everywhere in Tignes. So, when the snow is falling just behind our windows, it created some problems in our office…

Who wouldn’t want to support CoreUPT Skis? I would imagine they will try to keep the distribution small but the product looks sick and companies like Backcountry would throw down to sell these skis. I hope they get their dealer network setup quickly. Skiers Realm would like to wish CoreUPT Skis well.

By pure coincidence I was contacted by CoreUPT when my Armada contract was expiring. As I knew of them a bit I was comfortable chatting with them. Having Candide & Richard on board really was a big push for me. I admire these 2 guys so much, for they have such a love for skiing and are absolutely NUTS on-hill and in Competition. Using Skype was really helpful, as it helped me to get even more at ease, especially not having met Guerlain and Matthieu (The masterminds behind CoreUPT) and hearing what they had to say about the planning, background, backing and their business plan for the Skiers market. I got the feeling that it was really being designed as much as possible as a “skier’s company”, that is, not any fly-by-night outfit just trying to break into the market, but a group of people who looked at everything with the skier’s point of view first and foremost in mind.
