Chillfactor Magazine Chillfactor 2025 Edição anterior

The new issue of Chillfactor has landed, just as that familiar chill creeps back into the mornings. It’s our annual reminder that winter is on the way and whether it shapes up to be a big one or not, we’re ready. Inside this year’s edition, we’ve packed stories that reach from local hill laps to far-flung backcountry dreams — a full celebration of skiing in all its messy, joyful, unpredictable glory. We kick things off at home with young Aussie freeride phenom Finn Jacobsen, whose rise through the junior freeride ranks is the kind of story that makes you stop and wonder what the next generation is really capable of. From there, it’s a deep dive into some of the season’s standout moments: Billy Lloyd-Blainey’s double backie over the Charlotte Pass road gap; Kai Jones’ emotional comeback from a brutal injury; and a look at what it took for Charles Beckinsale and his crew to build Australia’s biggest jump and a world-class superpipe — right in the middle of one of the lowest-snow years in memory.
