The beating heart of Le Bent... Classic couloir riding from the summit of the Bellevarde.
Four lines close to the heart of Lé Bent. From French valleys to the Australian Alps.
After launching our winter coordinates collection recently, many wondered where the longitude and latitude bearings that were printed on some of our certain ‘Core’ products actually lead? Were they just ornamental? A random jumble of numbers down our balaclavas and baselayers that looked pretty and gave the impression of the extreme?
Well, those who endeavoured to look them up might have been pleasantly surprised. Surprised to see pretty French mountains surrounding remote valleys.
In fact, it's those pretty French mountains that laid the foundation for Lé Bent.
In this guidebook, we document the four lines that have defined Lé Bent. From our founding to today. This is still where we like to play.
