What is there to be said about Gigi that hasn't already been said? Perhaps that he's a just as eclectic and interesting character when stripped bare of all sponsor logos off and of the snow as he is on snow?
Or that he gets more covers in one season than most pros' in their entire careers!
People tend to subconsciously radiate toward Gigi where ever he ventures. I cannot pinpoint why, but after years of watching him, I think part of his magic is thanks to his uncanny ability to see nuances where you and I see only black or white.
And he truly, deeply loves snowboarding for all the right reasons... While contest guys take the gondola up to the event site, then back down in the afternoon, saying 'There's nothing but ice on the run down to the village, so why bother?", Gigi is frothing, doing laps on the same run, finding lines, obstacles and trannies these guys could never even imagine. Now THAT is inspiring. - Jan Prokes (Volcom Europe Team Manager)
