    Great video. As a life long snowboarder, I’ve sometimes found myself struggling with mental preparedness the most. As my family grows as I get older, an occasional lack of confidence has sometimes held me back. When I manage to overcome it, it’s hugely rewarding. Confidence, not cockiness.

    Don't sleep on your endurance training! I followed a friend down 2 double blacks in a row at Copper, and by halfway through the second, I was absolutely dying. Tough terrain gets exponentially tougher when you're already tired and winded!

    Love the b roll of SkiT and Spam, especially Chief showing bracqage. He has the sweetest patient round turns

      Much gratitude. My childhood French and Austrian ski instructors are right now smiling with pride at your comment.

    A big tip is definitely to train all types of skiing. Most skiers I see only do one type, whether they strictly carve down groomers or live in the park. It’s so funny to watch extremely proficient ski racers try to go off the tiniest jumps or smallest cliffs and it looks like they have never skied before and fall on their ass. Or really awesome park skiers who can’t really carve well and just die on the moguls. Practice everything and you will be surprised how many of the skills in one discipline of skiing become useful in ways you never would have imagined.

    for anyone looking for other exercises, I got super into yoga this off season and I gotta say it has made me a much better skier. if you go to the right classes, ie ones that involve strength and balance training, I think it’s one of the best things you can do to get better at skiing off the mountain/off season

    I always ski alone. What happens is i often psych myself out of doing more difficult terrain because nobody is there to push me and encourage me. 9 times out of 10 if i can build up my courage i can complete these runs successfully. The mental factor is huge.

      Agree. Bro factor is big in doing challenges compared to being alone and not wanting be hurt by oneself in the woods.

    The Rosetta Stone of skiing is the pedal hop or jump turn. The game changes when you learn how to execute with complete control at 40 degrees

    Lake Louise used to have a run marked as red to signify a level above double black; not something I'd normally attempt but they dropped it down to a double black this season so I'll probably send it 🤣

    The mental side always gets me. I've got the technique for the most part, but I just get in my head about injury and stuff and bail on stuff I know I can do.

    Love your vids. Can you do a video about beginner/intermediate resorts or skills. Me and my fiance are new to skiing and have only been to wolf creek. I’d consider myself to be a beginner still but I can do a decent bit of parallel if I’m not too scared to leave my safety wedge. I’d like to know more about learning blues or knowing which resorts are great for those learning to really ski

    Triple Blacks can be found at Mt Bohemia as well and they are legit. Don't write off Mt Bo just because it's in Michigan! Good video tho. You gotta hit boho, yo.

    The biggest thing holding me back is fear. I know I can chutes, I’m aware I can ski straight, but I’m scared.
    Fear is the mind killer and whatnot

    "That was not a proper way to get down", but who's the guy there, William Hill? And how many broken bones he had already at the time?! Namastè.

      Nah. The advice is fine. I mean if an intermediate person used this as their only source of information, sure it might not be fully complete but it these guys aren’t full on ski instructors. They do provide lots of good tips in this video IMO
