That first drop was MAAAAAAAD

[@normferguson2769]

Anthony Bebb my guess was a nearly 100’ drop (30m) based on tree height. Amazing

[@planetecaravane]

@@normferguson2769 It's insane man

[@gflaig9131]

@@planetecaravane freaking crazy, when I jump 4 meters I feel like I am gonna crash, imagine from 30 meter, freeking awesome

[@corbinwoods8811]

[@slipstickproductions8984]

Dann bro you fucking blew everything away

[@olliespencer3363]

That was sooo insane

[@cabbage6037]

Bro I’m scared to do a half meter ski jump.

[@marcogtturbo]

Outstanding team with incredible skills. One question to the editors . The speed of the video during descent is increased or not? To me looks like yes

[@anonymouspeoplesuck6403]

marcogtturbo same i think its sped up because they are good but the landings are to smooth for the pace

[@TheFactionCollective]

Hey guys ! In fact this is a completely RAW edit, meaning nothing has been sped up or even cooler-graded. What you're seeing is exactly what the pros are seeing !

[@marcogtturbo]

@@TheFactionCollective I hope you're really joking now. FOR SURE the jump itself is slo-mo'd this should be even not questioned. The point was about the descent. If you claim this is fully RAW then something seems not correct.

[@TheFactionCollective]

We had mentioned that nothing had been sped up, but yes, things have been slowed down ! Otherwise, these are RAW files.

[@marcogtturbo]

That make sense now , and audio part confirms your saying

[@BeyondPrideMF]

This really brought a smile to my face, great video. But are they just going with the flow, not really sure where they're going? Looks like half of the time he loses control and just somehow makes it down there haha

[@codyo9256]

ya thats true free-skiing,! That was like surfing, riding a gnarly wave just trying to stay in control as much as they could. so pitted lol

[@peterminneci2307]

Amazing

[@sheikhirshad2164]

Perfect ridering

[@dobro1750]

Crazy

[@christophedenis92]

1st drop is mad ... one of those days ;)

[@matusgerbiark3622]

How to keep skis together while such a big jumps?

[@jackdimaggio2474]

matuš Gerbiark, you just need to keep them together. You will also have more control.

[@ImRefraction]

just "keep them together" is terrible advice lol you need to be dead center of your boots and it will make it a lot easier

[@daytonhunt2406]

It takes practice, I recommend wearing a pair of skis on flat ground and practice jumping in the air as high as you can with them. It just gets your body used putting them where they need to go

[@zloyvinnipuh2411]

Божественно!

[@meryllcousin706]

Du lourd

[@corbinwoods8811]

We need another angle of the first drop

[@alexanderernst6201]

1:12 why was the snow cracking

[@ioanavornicita2021]

when that guy's skis overlapped at the first drop i got some serious anxiety

[@kjirstinyoungberg7794]

Hahahahaha! Naw...that's a RUSH!
