Team Profiles - The Homies - TonTon Holland and Jules Reymond

Hailing out of the Romandie in Southern Switzerland, The Homies bring in a French HipHop vibe with the experience and style of a very good, aged, vintage port, and the slick skills of a plate oysters, lemon and olive oil. TonTon Holland, a true gentleman of the sport, has been to more Ästhetiker events than most Ästhetiker's themselves, and Jules Reymond boasts some of the best Absinthe Film video Parts they have had....   

 

Team Homies - TonTon Holland and Jules Reymond

One of the most recognized crews across Europe, The Homies have been putting it together and putting it on the ground for years now, producing a sublime French Connection across the Southern Swiss Alps and well into France.

If there was any proof that age is simply in the head, TonTon, for shits and giggles, landed all four 10′s in a relaxed training run recently at home. He told us by phone, “Dammit, I’m going to be the first rider to do a switch b/s 10 at the age of 40!”… Knowing TonTon’s determination and love of snowboarding, we can only wonder if he will go 12! Will he do it here? We don't know. We do know that good snow in the Southern Alps means he's been in training...

Teaming up with the cheeky dark horse of Jules Reymond, they have a spark in their forward line not many teams will boast. Absent from the contest scene for a couple of years while on filming duties with Absinthe, Jules’s command of the unexpected, his propensity to surprise, and his ability to pull off the impossible – all the while with an infectious grin broadly across his face – regularly leaves the defense bamboozled with his Ronaldo like footwork and subtle skills. There is no doubt with Jules Reymond, you are going to learn to expect the unexpected with daring and bravado… and a polite shake of the hand. Jules’s personality is infectious, which is translated into his riding style. Smoke and mirrors, tastefully counterpointed the stomp and thump… He would scare most people if he just could get that smile off his face!
