The 4th installment of SCOTT Sports’ Wednesdays with Wallisch. Follow Tom as he preps for contest season at home in Park City, travels with the Level 1 team to Japan, and wins big at the Grand Prix in Mammoth Mountain, California.
In Episode 3 of Wednesdays with Wallisch Season 3, Tom gives us a recap of what he’s been up to in January. The month started out with an urban trip to Sweden with Kyle Decker to work on The Wallisch Project. After injuring his knee at Grand Prix at Copper, Tom decides to take it easy and join the 4Bi9 crew to get some shots using his GoPro while he recovers.
This vlog is all about my first ever halfpipe World Cup. I’m super happy about the result! I’ve run out of words to describe it, I think sometimes just magic happens. And thanks Dalbello for the ski boots!
First World Cup of the season is done and I couldn’t be happier about the result. The course was super good, jumps were smooth and they had super nice rails, too. And It was really great to see other riders again after a while.
But before the World Cup we went to Red Bull Headquarters for a day. They showed us around a bit and we had a few awesome meetings there. In the end of the day we created some content and the most exciting part was making GIFs. You should see these on Instagram at some point, there will be couple really fun ones. Can`t wait these to come out 🙂 So stay tuned!
We landed in US again. Sadly wasn’t here last year because of an injury but now back in Colorado for my second ever halfpipe World Cup.
It ended much better than I expected, my plan in the beginning was just to get to finals but somehow I ended up on the top of the podium. I can’t be more happy. So, this was my first halfpipe World Cup win. Thanks everyone for the support. And now time for Dew Tour. See you there!!
In the end of November I had my first competition this season, it was a World Cup in Stubai, Austia. During that time Austria was in lockdown and it was uncertain whether the competition was being held or not. But luckly they managed to make it happen, still without the crowd and with strict rules. The ski resort was closed to public and they got the lifts running only for athlethes. Everything went pretty well in the beginning, I even managed to win the qualifications with 92.50 points. I was really happy about my result, but then it was the finals day and it didn’t go as planned anymore. The warm up before the finals ended with the decision not to start in the finals 🙁 I felt so bad at first, but then I tried to see it from a positive/different side. I was glad that nothing serious happened to me and very soon I’ll have new comp coming up.
I Won The First Competition of the Season – Vlog 15
Release date: January 1, 2022
First of all it’s been a while since I uploaded my last vlog, sorry about that! But this season’s schedule has been tight and a lot other things have been going on so that’s why it took a while to upload this video. This vlog is filmed in November, when I went to Austria for training and for a World Cup and now it’s finally available for you! Better late than never! 😀 From now on my vlogs will be in English with Estonian subtitles, which you need to turn on on the Youtube video. You can also let me know in the comments if you like my vlogs better in English or in Estonian?
I was so happy to be back skiing after my hand injury (talking more about this in the vlog) that messed up my initial plans for the season. In the beginning it was a little scary to ski becuase my hand wasn’t 100% healed, so I wasn’t sure how my hand will feel when I ride/jump or am I going to break it again when I crash? Luckly I overcame this fear quite quickly, then I already could focus more on my tricks and on the first competition of the season, which went really well. Couldn’t wish for a better start to my season!
