  • Skiing Twice is Nice on Cody peak, the snow was so perfect and smooth, i decided to just point it straight down the chute. Check out some other videos of the same couloir for reference, it's normally skied in a bunch of turns and often has rocks you have to ski through in the exit.

    I have a spinal cord injury and probably won’t ever alpine ski again, but I love watching your show. Sometimes I almost feel like I’m skiing with you. Keep it up 👍
    Thanks

    Decades ago, I went to a trail off KT22 at Squaw Valley (now is called Palisades). All I can remember is how steep it was and how I was going to make it down there without getting hurt or lose a ski. I have lots of respect for this skier's skills and bravery. Thanks for posting this video!

    Point and chute through the hallways. Nice line and best way to ski those, especially in those conditions, slow n steady. Can’t beat that feeling of seeing your line the entire way.

    "AVI danger doesnt look to high" ...No avalanche could catch up to you. Cool under pressure. Amazing.

    Well THIS Boomer skied virgin bowls in and around Jackson 40 years ago straight down on Skinny Skis. I even started and avalanche in Black Canyon but skied out of it. Those mountains are fantastic.

      It takes less than an hour from the top of the Tram, but several hours without lift service.

      We need a chart, I've been on the Harakiri slope in Mayrhofen, how does this compare to that champ? Amazing stuff! 👏💯💪🏿

    • @Amezis
      @Amezis Год назад

      Harakiri has a steepness of 38 degrees at its steepest point (commonly advertised as 78%). So if this video is 40 degrees, it's a bit steeper than the steepest point of Harakiri

    40 isnt too bad. I’ve done some that were so steep and with so many trees that I had little choice but to fall. I am far from a pro though, and probably should not have been on those double diamonds. LOL. Great run.

    Yo don't cut the clips like that. Just show the whole run you can show off the mountain b-roll as the intro or outdoor for the video.

      Dude he can narrate for a minute and a half and then make something requiring bravery and skills look effortless. Odds are you would be a bore for a minute and a half and then get yourself killed skiing that.

    I could handle the pitch but I need a wide berth to turn! I'd be a ping pong ball on those granite walls! I'm comforted knowing most skiers would be as well!
