Thomas Trifonitchev aka Coach Trifes is not only a coach, but also a great skier. His last season was a hell of a ride as we can see in his latest part Revenant, as he had been invited for a Line Skis powder shoot, Downdays event Gaptastic Voyage, and Dennis Ranalter’s park shoot at Stubai.

Despite a low tide winter season in Europe Thomas Trifonitchev also known as ‘Coach Trifes’ or ‘Trifes’ took full advantage of his scarce opportunities to get in front of the lens. In his own words: This part wasn’t even planned to be honest. Only halfway into the season, I realized I’d be at three shootings as a guest and I might as well use them to create a piece – I don’t get to shoot that often so I was very stoked about it. The goal was to underline my tall 6’4 and beefy-looking being with some creative tricks, proper grabs, and big landings. I’m hyped to showcase our LINE Chronic Collection in a true all-mountain fashion, ski anywhere kind of way, and carry the design of the series throughout the edit. As I started to feel like people merely view me as a coach and not an active skier – I’ve chosen the title ‘Revenant’. I hope you’ll vibe with it and special thanks to LINE for inviting me to Utah and Dennis Ranalter for the inclusion in the Descendant Movie. Go watch it if you haven’t already.“
