01/03/2010

Beyond the rules, beyond the prepared slopes, at the search of yourself in the winter mountains. Free Heel Fest is a wonderful event for meeting all those who share the same passion. Rendezvous, competitions, sport, parties, music: a week for discovering the joys of the alternative way of skiing.

The theme of this edition is the 70's, with its protests and oil crisis, power struggles and Concorde, young protests and music... punk gets born, the music of the Sex Pistols and of the Ramones gets known worldwide, with the one of the Clash and the poetic music by Patty Smith. It's the time of the discos and in 1977 of the "Saturday night fever", film showing the emancipation of the world in that period of time. In San Francisco psychedelic is in fashion, arts, music.

But also the years of the movement of the free radios and the Pope Giovanni Paolo II signs the success of the first rock star pope of history.

Young people wear shirts with very long spikes; in the houses many have carpet and plastic phones in fluo colors and strange shapes. Color TV affirms itself and people start to travel, who can afford it with the Giulietta, the most dreamed car of Alfa Romeo, the others in R4, the family car of the Renault. Boeings 747 fly in the sky and the Space Shuttle starts his first futuristic flights.

Weird, extraordinary, unpredictable, rich Seventies. Now it's time for the free heel people to reinterpret with all the imagination an era that is behind us but which never ceases to fascinate us. Always in the spirit of the Free Heel world.
