Triple Digit Snowfall at Whistler Blackcomb
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
- A few days after skiing the mega weekend storm we had another 30cm + pow dump at Whistler Blackcomb bringing the 4 day snowfall total to 103cm. You know it's a good day when the pow-stache makes an appearance. The alpine was wind blown but the tree skiing was magic. I’m feeling super stoked that we’re building an actual base and the mid-mountain trees on both the Whistler and Blackcomb sides are becoming somewhat skiable.

Spiciest Ski channel on RUclips. I feel like I’m back at Whistler when I watch it.
I've never been to whistler in my life and yet I feel like I'm right there with james
Duuude this is so true. I've spent a year in Whistler and I watch this channel just reminiscing about good times there!
Y'all are the absolute best!
People who cant be adults in the lift line shouldnt be allowed at the mountain
I couldn't agree more, people need to grow up. It always bums be out to see people charging the line like that. It's dangerous for kiddos and the lifties are already working hard enough and shouldn't have to be riot police.
yeah its just a loser mentality imo, def a bummer to see it honestly anywhere lol@@riseandalpine
dude you killed it with the audio!
introducing the instrumental at 2:21
getting me *vibing* to the beat
pausing and making me wait/wonder *"did he really just do that to me?"*
and then dropping the beat again at 2:39 was just *magical!*
Glad you picked up on that little audio tease hahaha
Great to see that Whistler is finally getting some decent powder this season!
It's getting better every day!
I fvking love watching you ski bro i hope i meet u on the mountain one day❤
Thanks Henry! I hope we run into each other as well!
That's sick. I'm there Thrusday and Friday.....So good.
Sweeet!! Things are skiing so good :)
The past week really came through in the clutch! Looks great, another fantastic video as always
Whistler has really been providing!!
Best resort skier on YT
Check out Lucas Catania, he’s pretty insane too
Thanks Brother!
Have been there too that pow day kissed by sun in the afternoon. Best skiing day for years. Greetings from Germany!
Glad you landed a dream day like that. It's always one for the memory books.
Nice snowfall, makes me jelly again! Killin' it James...
Sorry & Not Sorry as per usual Paul :)
I am heading out there on Feb 25, first time ever! Hope I see you there!
Stoked for you!
The oooohs and the pure joy are so good. Ha
Lordy that was SICK!!!
Soooo sick!
Awesome video! Glad to finally see some pow!! Also congrats on the ski sauce selling out I know I need some for the slopes!
Thanks dude - can't believe it sold out again. Y'all are awesome!
My kid loves you always looks for you on the mountain!!!!
Tell him to say hi if he ever runs into me :)
some legendary skiing brother! keep that hot sauce stocked!
Glad someone is getting snow!!!
Hopefully the clouds can share the love!
Bro that's amazing, best place to ski
The best place!
I always miss those legendary powder days man! At least you could get up there!
Always a good day when snow is falling at WB
The hot sauce “liquid courage” is definitely different!! Gotta try that out. Been binging these videos after a trip out to copper got some good snow. Love the channel man.
Thanks for binging my stuff man! Appreciate that.
What a week!
Too cold to cook bib rice......but the snow is so good..
Yeeeewwwww!!!!
⛷⛷⛷⛷⛷
I love cold weather. The groomers were going off!
Love the videos dude!
Thanks Ben!
This is sick! Hoping for more of the same next month 🤞
Hope you get some storms too!
That’s badass! Subscribed! 👍
Ayyyeee Thanks dude. Welcome to my channel :). Really appreciate you tuning in.
😮🤤That pillow line at 5:25🤌🔥🔥🔥👏👏
My fav line of the day!
That 2nd run was ridiculous
That’s it, I’m driving up on Thursday!
Thursday should be really good!
@@riseandalpine Yes. Just need to get myself there safely. Taking a day away from work for this.
How i miss skiing Whistler. Used to get a half day of Freshies in on Jersey cream chair before it go tracked out. the lines look insane now.
Whistler still rocks but you deffo have to work a little bit more for fresh tracks
It would be an awful cold day in hell before I waited in line like that never
BONKERS!!!
One of my favourite words!
nice to see you on the 104s... sorry to hear about your other skis.. they blew out the same place that the Stockli 95s that i demoed and there was another pair 95s that were blown out there and a pair of 88s that blew out there.. i also talked to someone who had 102s that were blown out there... plus when i used to come out here over 25 years ago that is where i would blow out my skis..
The 104's always perform great! With over 15cm I always reach for the 115's though, can't beat a little bit of extra rocker for smearability in the trees :)
@@riseandalpine I will probably use my 104s tomorrow.. I got some 105s are really my baby.. I am more of a carver so I am working on learning how to smear.. It is a challenge for me but I think I am slowly getting better..
The tree run seems so fun!! Be careful with the lower than usual temperature. I heard it can get really cold.
Thanks Sam! It's been freezing at the base but the inversion has kept it tolerable up top. I've managed to avoid frost nip!
i haven't ski'd in a decade but the algorithm brought you to me... man i wish i knew how to parallel ski and not just pizza haha... this looks so fun and glad to see Whistler restocked on snow
Keep practicing and you can 100% parallel ski in no time!
Whistler rocks 🎉🎉🎉
The best!
As someone who regularly skis in Scotland, conditions like this almost never come, so I'm gonna have to stick to watching ur vids to get my pow fix. I am hoping for at least a decent season here but given how poor the past few have been, I sadly don't have much hope anymore, anyways, heres to hoping!
Glad I can help fill a powder void for you. Maybe it's time for a west coast powder highway trip?
Which runs are you on?
@@riseandalpine Hopefully one day
Sweet dude! Waiting for more snow in the kooteanys. Hey, love the vids and gear reviews, request for more follow cams, like the Sage C “One Lap” series….gives a good sense of speed and steepness. Keep up the fun videos, yo!
I love the Sage C series as well! I'll try and get more follow cams going.
Nothing like some first tracks on powdery tree runs
I have missed deep tree skiing so bad
I can’t remember where those trees are ~ maybe harmony bowl or symphony bowl. I remember we had a day like that last time I was there. It was the best ski day of my life.
The trees on Harm get sooo deeep!
finally winter is here fr
Finally!!!!
"Its way wetter than i expected" 😮
"Where are you?"... "I fell in a whole!" 😅
This Whistler or Vegas?
Viva Whis Vegas baby hahaha
I got 2nd chair up fitz that day 😃
I SHOWED IP AT 5:30 AM 🙃
I guess the miracle came
Back at it!
FIRST LOVE YA MAN!!!"
Ayyyyeeeee. Thanks Brother!
I find "mooing" in big lines gets me in my cow space.
I'll try and blurt out some moos next time hahaha
@riseandalpine I'll listen for the call of the cow when I'm up there from February 5 to 8 and 19-22. Maybe I'll see you up there someday?
Signed
Biker Rob (since you already have an "Adenture Rob", lol)
P.S. I bought my backcountry gear and took my Avi course just before Covid, so I'm yet to brave the backcountry. Too bad you broke your fat ski.
Dam i was there 2 weeks ago when it was raining in the village
I also hurt my leg and missed half my trip good to see what I missed
Damn dude, sorry to hear that. Hope you heal fast!
Yah alot of upper elevations on consistent dumps will get avalanche controlled and drop all the snow into the bowls and shark out the chutes.
100% - You can only get them on those sleeper days where the big slides aren't going down.
🎯🎥
This guy slaps
Works for me!
Nice video! Call me the camera angle guy, but I do think it looks better when you tilt the insta 360 forward! I struggle with the same battles with my videos. Anyways, I think this is the season you blow up, sick skiing with stoke energy. Keep it up
Thanks dude! I totally agree, this one I filmed parts with the Go Pro so you could see more of the helmet. Def 360 looks better angled forward.
Your lines through the trees fills me with anxiety 😢. Did you see the guys in Japan get more than metre in one hit? Thanks for your posts 👍🇬🇧
Send me a link to those Japow videos!
@@riseandalpineFrom what I see Japan’s pow is second to none. But Places Like Whistler beat it in terrain.
I was up on Sunday and it was chaos all the whistler sknclib s were meeting so all lift got delayed then cancelled then delayed again all white it was -32 degrees. 😂😂 I went home early
It was super chilly on the weekend but warm at the top. Almost froze to death in the line at the base. Thank god for inversion or I would have drove home too hahaha
I think that investing in some thicker skis and a longer snorkel might have been a good idea
100% - I wish I hadn't broken my 115's before this day LOL
i give you so much credit for dealing with those crowds..no amount of snow is worth dealing with that amount of people...Long live the small independent ski areas....sorry but F Vail
The skiing's good so I've learnt to be patient. You still smash out more Pow vertical than ski touring but it totally gets tiring standing around
Hi mate! Coming over from Australia to ski in early Feb. What time should I be getting up to line up for the whistler village gondola early Feb weekdays?
Totally depends on the amount of snow. If there's like 30+ some people are crazy and get in line before 6. I usually aim for like 7:30 but there will be a lot of people in front of me. The great thing is that on Powder days the alpine doesn't ever open until 10am or later so everyone gets a shot at fresh up top.
If there is no powder, there are no lines on weekdays.
Time to get some Volant Spatulas or K2 Pon2oons for these conditions
Had to google those skis. Pontoons look like they'd be awesome!
Pure Ski ADHD vid, so sick.
Love It!
Me over here in Florida where there isn't any snow at all ;-;
Get over here my dude!
I have an adventure Matt in my group who seems to fall into holes as well like Matt did at 2:00 👍
Matt's just seem t olove holes
The Tree runs 🌳 look so random and tight, do you ever hit one?
I kiss a tree maybe once every second season :)
James...I hate you! Skied ice all day today here on the ice (east) coast in NH, 1/15. PLEASE send some pow our way! Our sanity depends on it! BTW your hot sauce kicks ass!
My apologies Chris :). Here's hoping those clouds blow over your way. Stoked you're enjoying the liquid courage brother!
Jeez, why does the powder have to fall when I’m not there? I’m missing everything!
Classic... Looks like we have more coming. Hopefully you catch the next storm!
Go mid March to increase your odds.
🤙🤙
"Vile" resorts had always said 3 inches is 6!😂😂😂
LOL - I actually find they tend to grossly under report almost every single snowfall on their website. I usually just follow snow forecast.com
you gotta go to japan dude
It’s sad to see a hockey game break out in the line.
So dumb that people can't just be respectful
Dude! How do you deal with all those people? And to wait in line all that time for that as a first run. I do not get Whistler...
it goes relatively quick, its like 30 minutes at its maximum length
You get used to the lines. There's always pow to be found. You gotta enjoy the hills you live close to and I'm thankful to live nearby one of the greats
@@riseandalpine Fair enough buddy, I get ya. Over 20 years ago since the Sea to Sky was my playground. Great place, too many people. Happy Skiing! The next system is here. POW POW!!
do you record in active hdr
I always record in 5.7k stock settings. Then I use the desktop software to export at 4k and 110mbps
How were your bases after all that? 😢
Bases are still mint!
Crystal glide in north van should be able to fix the skis.
They are cracked straight through the wood on either side. I think retirement is the only option :). They served me well
@@riseandalpine Aw damn, sorry to read man.
@@dootdoot1867 Skis are disposable, knees aren't. Glad the skis took the brunt of the rock smash. It means I get to try something new!
4:40, why dont you put the bar down? I never understood people who dont put it down. Sick video though!
Since I keep my pack on and have cameras the bar often hits my head or cameras. I'd say I pull it down 95% of the time but sometimes I just forget.
Bro, I wanna ski so bad. I'm writing exams rn smh
The turns are going to be so much better after you crush your exams. I'm rooting for ya. Straight Ayyyyeees baby!!!
Frigin rights brother.Thank you. Keep on shredden @@riseandalpine
Ill be coming to Whistler Feb 10-15... Are the lines always like this??? LOL wtf???
On Pow days the lines are massive any day of the week. Regular days are chill on weekdays. Weekends are always fairly busy.
I appreciate the comment boss. Been all over just haven't been to Whistler... you're the man... can't tell you how many videos I've watched of yours over the past month or so. Hope to run into you while I'm there. Been bumping that Lord of Land song haha
no need for skiing when you've got cows!
Cows slaps.
Honest
Can you drop some sauce off to me very late Jan? Visiting from NZ
Hey Jayson,
Just about sold out. Would be happy to if I do a resotck by then, but I might not have stock until later in the season.
Sweet as Bro@@riseandalpine hope to see you whilst there. Enjoying your content.
@@JaysonBryant Hope to see you as well dude. Have an amazing trip :). Hit me up if you got any Q's
second view woohoo.
Thanks for dropping a woohoo with me!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Your poor skis!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😢😢😢
I miss them so much. RIP Enforcer 115's... They don't even make them anymore. Such a legendary ski
Man those lift lines 😕
Whistler has made me a patient person!
LOL
7 day snowfall 103cm
Base depth 165cm
As long as it's an upwards trend, I'm stoked!
Yeah, still need more snow.
Dudes bragging about triple digit cm when we got triple digit inches down here in the cascades
Or Little Cottonwood Canyon
Holy Ballz... I want to come for a visit!
@@riseandalpineAlta hit 113 inches this storm cycle!
@@riseandalpine it’s wet thick snow though :(
Please come and Visit me in the Horstman Hut at the top of 7th Heaven. Ill trade you some treats for some Liquid Courage. Big fan btw :)
Do you work at the hut :). I'm always willing to run a trade for snacks!
@@riseandalpine I’m the supervisor. Come and visit any day except Wednesdays and Thursdays :)
I came here to laugh at canadians using centimeters so they can say wild shit like "triple digit snowfall"
literally every other country except america uses the metric season im done with USA ppl thinking its superior like wth is farenheit
Classic American thinking they’re superior.
The imperial system is absolutely Bizarre
Straight lining powder, WTF, shame, shame. Learn to turn
You can only turn when it's steep enough! This west coast fluff is heavy.
The hot sauce “liquid courage” is definitely different!! Gotta try that out. Been binging these videos after a trip out to copper got some good snow. Love the channel man.
Glad copper got some great snow! Thanks for following along!
