Federico Ravassard

Photographer

A young photographer with many years working for the guide, Federico's work can be seen in the Freeride section

Having cut his teeth in lockstep with the Buyer's Guide, for which he has taken thousands of actions shots over the years, this year Federico helped us out with the Freeride section alongside Matteo Agreiter. As always, he also contributed his extensive experience and his unique way of seeing the world.
