Xavier's passion for skiing is infectious, and he's a great teacher, an amazing guide and a fun person to ski with. I look forward to my next days out with Xavier, he gets the best out of me.

Xavier had an immediate and then continuous impact on my skiing, it is fair to say he taught me to ski!

The more I ski with Xavier the more I realise there is more to learn. The journey is fun as he loves to share his passion for the mountains with others. You don't find many instructors like Xavier that really love their job and the mountains whilst doing his best to give you the best experience possible.

Through a group of friends I first met Xavier while on a business come ski trip to Les Arc. The guys had organised a mountain guide who would take us to remote off piste, undisturbed powder regions to experience a different kind of skiing.

Slightly nervous I soon became instantly at ease after spending a just couple of hours in the presence of Xavier. A person who has spent his whole life in this region and growing up on the mountain it's clear from the beginning you are in the hands of the complete expert.

Xavier sets the bar at the very highest when it comes to his craft and dedication, his communication and demeanour with his clients, and his captivating aura that will simply lead you to want to push yourself further than ever before. A great guy. What are you waiting for.

Having been fortunate enough to snowboard 3-4 weeks a season for the 20 years or so it was starting to be a little predictable year on year. I was at the point of perhaps looking for a new sport, until 4 years ago a good friend introduced me to Xavier.

We booked our first day of off piste with Xavier, and I'm now totally hooked on snowboarding again. My friends and I have had some truly amazing adventures with him. Having an incredible knowledge of the mountain and always finding the best skiable powder aside, Xavier has always taught us all SO much about reading snow conditions, and he will take the time to explain why the conditions are always so different, and the reasons for these changes.

My snowboarding skills have improved considerably, Xavier has pushed me above my perceived limits. I now never hesitate when he suggests I tackle something really tricky, I now realise if Xavier thinks I'm capable of the task, then I am. Xavier has an incredible way of knowing each of our limits, and always brings us back to the village with huge smiles, and many adventures to bore our other friends with.
