    Epic run bro. Fack the haters, you did that!! GoPro effect looked steep so I can only imagine your perspective plus holding the 360. Keep shredding!

    Don't scrub the chute clean with your skid marks. Make some turns instead of just side slipping. leave some good snow for those that follow.

    Great video, I've always wanted to hit those runs but I'm too lazy to make that hike from chair 6. What are you using for a selfie stick?

  • @Tyler-be7nh
    @Tyler-be7nh 3 года назад +6

    Very awesome looking run. But you need to work on that massive body counter rotation. Until you do, you will always be plowing in between your turns and will never be stable enough to carve the steeps. It's an easy bad habit to develop but it is seriously limiting you. I had to take lessons to break it for myself but it's worth the effort. Keep at it and have fun!

    • @BenNdjami
      @BenNdjami  3 года назад +1

      Thanks!! I really appreciate the advice.Will work on it. It s sure to be a lot of fun when I learn carve down this run next season. 🙏🏾

      I don't know if I can post links or not but, if it works, the link below is a great vid that might be useful for you. The "Snowboard Addiction" channel on RUclips has some really good lessons on it too.

      🤣 Yo Brian, Lazy dude! Where were you at this day? that was 2 years ago you salty sucker. It was empty up there. I was the only one was hiking up there and I did 3 of silver king run in one day and more. Your lazy ass was at the base 😂 on the greens where it belongs. I can now rip all of it 2 years later. Better keep your mount shut if you can’t hike 20 min in deep powder all the way up there 5 times in one day before the snow melts away. 😂 the nerve. Crap me up. Thanks for the comment.

      @@BenNdjami I rode for 6 years straight in the Colorado backcountry and resorts. Point it straight and run it out was my motto. Just jealous it's been awhile lol. I had some spectacular high speed crashes for that motto tho 🤣

    • @BenNdjami
      @BenNdjami  2 года назад

      Hey Brian, welcome to the PNW. It’s not like CO powder here. I’ve rode in vail and copper on a powder day and that pow was so fluffy. We got a bit heavy pow here but you can still point straight from the top but it will for sure feel different. For sure recommend you come ride this run at crystal. It’s the silver king. I tomahawk last year trying to point it on this one😂. The chute is pretty narrow towards the end so consequence are very high. If you are in great physical shape and can hike in powder for 20 to 30 min each run, then Come give it shot with me this year. Should be filled in by March. That’s when it’s prime sendy season. Have fun and stay safe out there.
