I believe credit goes to dad for his undying patience and his ability ti instill confidence into his kids. I mean the kids are amazing too, but they get that way because of their dad. Way to go Eric!!!
I love that she hasn't grown up too much that she till talks to the trees. Thanks for taking us along.
Adia: “daddy, my first time on the corner pocket, l haven’t done this last year, or the next year,OR next year”. Love it
Love it
Awesome job Adia. The boys have lots of patience as well. Great job Eric. You’re kids are fortunate to have all the opportunities you offer them.
Wow can't believe you took Adia on that run. She didn't seem nervous just tired. Her progression is amazing. I'm also a big believer in adapting them to tougher terrain early 👍
I'm a fan of spending MOST of our time on easy terrain. "Maximum speed on minimum terrain" is the goal for 90-95% of out time on the mountain. The other 5-10% is a mix of steeper terrain. Does it have to be Double Blacks? Of course not. This run is short of a fun and novel run because of the tires and ropes and I knew she'd enjoy the rope and I can always help her down when she gets tired skiing. You can tell by her demeanour that she still had some stem left even after the run in the park!
Amazing😮😊😅 great daddy
I love how she questioned the rope and investigated to ensure it was safe. A natural borne ski guide/ski mountaineer in the making.
Over the past two weeks I haven't had the way to watch your videos. But today, this Wednesday in March, 2023, your voice, Eric, it is so wonderful to hear! Your words are kind and gentle and so wonderful. If only we ALL could have a DADDY LIKE YOU! Adia - please tell her that she's really really totally AWESOME!!! She is AMAZING WARRIOR SKI GIRL!!! WE LOVE YOU ADIA!!!
No hater here, you handled that like the GOAT Dad you are . I don’t think you realise what you’ve started! Your loyal subscribers are going to be here when your kids are making content with there own children 😂
What an EPIC adventure... Adia at Corner Pocket and your boys exercising Big Brother patience ❣️❣️❣️ An invaluable life lesson all round❣️ Well done, Dad👍❣️💕💖💝
It’s a beautiful thing
That is just amazing. Skiing that trail with 3 kids of different ages and ability levels. Filming it too. Your kids are so great. So courageous and willing to try. And you are so patient too.
Adia, that jump you did at the end of the video was terrific!!!! Good for you!!
I am a snowboarder but i just enjoy Adia getting better everyday of skiing!
As a mother of 4, grandmother of 8, I love your parenting philosophy and style. 😊
Just beautiful how involved you are in sharing time with your children. Love watching your videos. They are so very inspiring. Filled with zen harmony.
You, as the parent, know your children's strengths and weaknesses..It is great to see them try something difficult and overcome it..
I’ve been watching you since Aida first started skiing. Your parenting ethos of coaching your kids through challenging situations rather than avoiding the challenging situations is something I will adopt when I have children. My parents were extremely cautious with me and that has effected my skiing ability and everyday life, I have been skiing for 9 years and I know I’m a good skier yet I’m still anxious of black runs and I’m also a very anxious person. Ignore what anyone says about the “risk” you’re taking, I’m an example of what happens if you don’t show your kids you can be safe even if you’re in a situation with some risk. You’re doing great!
You are doing great as well. You have self awareness
@@rayray4192 awe thank you
I'm amazed at how you can ski so well with Adia in your arms !!! You make it look so easy. What an amazing day for you all ! I'm just in awe !
Aida is a true trooper, admiring her determination and courage, mostly her quick adaptation to such a huge challenge. Knowing her with good hands makes it much enjoyable experience watching her negotiating every step on the deep slope
I love your approach. Life is learning how to overcome adverse conditions, whether in the wild or in the work place. Learning to overcome obstacles early prepares you for the vagaries of life as you go through it. All too often I see parents preventing their children from encountering difficult or scary situations instead of guiding them through the situation. Well done.
My parents were terrible parents that, among other things, were very very strict, and tried to prevent me from learning and experiencing things, so I rebelled big time! Then they went to the complete opposite extreme with my sister, spoiling her rotten, and she turned out to be an even worse disaster than I did! A wimpering simp who wants everything handed to her, and refuses to stretch or exert herself in any way.
But in those days there was almost no public discussion of child rearing. In the the 60s and before, many people took an all or nothing approach. There was only 1 book in the world about the subject, by a Dr Spock, and it was mainly about babies and medical issues, not much on the psychology of a healthy child. Of course I forgive my parents, but I wish so much they had been like this family!
Well said
Way to go Family! Adia, you did an AWESOME job! Love how the boys were great and patient with Adia coming down the tires!!
So sweet! Since I didn't learn how to ski until my late 30s, I'm so impressed at how calm you are with all your kids. You are all amazing skiers. I remember once when I was learning how to ski seeing a 4 or 5 year old doing something I was terrified of and thought, if they can do it, so can I. Not really true with skiing - I learned. Little kids can way out perform me all the time! Thanks for sharing!
As mentioned before your videos help with depression. I smiled, laughed, and cried. Peace brother.
Awesome, long-awaited video, thank you. Loved August helping Luca and Adia you are fearless. Wonderful life skills you are teaching them. Thank you for sharing.
Omg! Way to go Asia 🤩. I am so very proud of you and the way you went down on the tires! I would have been a little scared too but you handled them very well! Kudos to Dad for helping his girl when she got a little tired❤️. You’re am amazing skier carrying her like you did. I’d want to hv you on my trail any day! Happy skiing kids! And I love the way adia kinda sits to ski and also uses her wings 😊. I’m glad Luca wasn’t hurt. . TFS
My heart was in my throat the whole time Adia was coming down! Love how you helped all three with different techniques. Until the very end, Adia was quite confident and chatting about everything under the sun. If you don’t introduce children to challenges, they will grow up soft. They won’t face the fear or feel the excitement of accomplishing the task. Dad, your awesome!!! 💪 God Bless your Family ❤️🙏🏂
Guess they will grow to achieve what they want! Cause the dad is on his own with 3 kids, 3 dif ages and skills...and filming!!! Lets not ignore this amazing achievement! Way to go Daddy!
Adia you had me on the edge of my seat. Well done little girl!!
Awesome, awesome! Luca and Adia got out of comfort zone, took the challenge in very risk-manageable way with help and support from brother and dad, "stop him August", "little step down, I got you"...
Wow! It's Adia's turn to experience the corner pocket. She's so excited to talk a lot 😅 and brave enough to go down... Her habit of talking to trees is still there,happy to hear that.🥰
30 years back I did the same sorts of things with my kids at that age. I firmly believed that having to challenge fear and make good decisions needs to be taught and experienced. When you accomplish something really challenging we say "ego goes up 3 points" but the kid also realises they can tackle tough things and succeed. It's a valuable life lesson. Skiing is great because if you pick the right places, the consequences are usually just a lot of snow in places you didn't expect and sometimes a long climb back up. We have a family anecdote when our oldest was 5 did something similar and half way down he decided it was scary and yelled at us that we were "irresponsible parents!" a few minutes later he was skiing the rest of the way down then that evening was proudly telling everyone in the lodge how he had skiied that double diamond.
What incredible children. I agree with your philosophy but there is no way I would have gone down those tyres, even if I could ski 😀 Adia is amazing for her age but she has inspiring parents and siblings. Respect to you all .
Yes much respect
Wow!!! All the kids are absolutely killing it!!! Adia!!! Wowzers! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼♥️
You are such an awesome dad to provide these wonderful opportunities to your children. The time spent making memories is something they will forever be grateful for.
☘☘Happy St Patrick's Day to you and your wife and three adorable children ☘☘
Bravo sir. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. I’m a southerner from Louisiana and learned to ski when I was 40 years old. Snow and mountains were very foreign to me and intimidating. However, I always wanted to learn how to ski and challenging myself to do so was one of the hardest and most rewarding things I have ever done in my life. No risk, no reward. Now I’m an avid skier and still try to challenge myself out there on the mountain, searching for that reward. There is nothing wrong with encouraging your kids to take on challenges or something that’s scary. They will be able to conquer anything life throws at them because of it. Semper Fi and let the haters hate. They have been found wanting..
You and I are the similar, sir. I learned to ski at 41. Never looked back!
Love to see this. It's nice to see (in a nice way) that Adia has good and bad days, and how you support her through.
You are a great Daddy 🌟
😮oh my goodness, you're an amazing Dad,and your family are wonderful, I can't believe Addia came down those tyres😮❤🇮🇪☘️
Wow, Luca, Adia, and August! Going on a really hard run is something you choose because you want to be challenged. People without confidence stay on terrain they know they can do easily. Here’s hoping you approach everything with such a great attitude!! ❤
Totally Awesome! Love watching the boys and Aida ski! Wonderful Dad and so patient.
Bravo for daring with your children! They are not in sugar and learn to surpass themselves with the security of a loving and ... competent father! It's even more genius to offer your daughter so much openness. Kisses from France
It shows just how much kids can do if allowed. I loved watching this .. great job dad and kids!
ADIA!! WOW!! That was just your first time doing corner pocket and you did a PHENOMENAL JOB and no hesitation at all,you are one brave girl! Luca you almost had it bud it looked like the front of your skis hit but awesome job, I loved how you assessed the situation and committed. August awesome job on being the best big bro and stopping Luca from going down the mountain and being patient and always encouraging your little sister. Erich and Court 🤙
beautiful! great work! super dad=Super kids adorable kids!👍🙌🤘
You are an awesome dad and you care for your three adorable and amazing kids!! And you are so right children can learn how to do challenging that are hard and learn from them when they have a positive adult who is willing and patient to help them out! And in turn they will pass it on to their children or friends etc..I wished I had a positive and gentle, and a patient teacher in high school in Vancouver BC Canada where I live when I was a teenager 🙂🙂👍👍 but I did have a teacher just like you when I went back to complete my Adult Dog Wood Diploma...👍👍🙂🙂☺☺🍁🍁
Thanks Katherine. Glad you found some positive mentorship!
Back in the mid 80s i was a liftee at Mt Norquay in Banff. There was a local 4-5 yr old who’s dad was a ski coach, and he would ski the green chair lift by himself. You would have to boost him onto the chairlift because he was so small. But this kid could parallel ski and pole plant with his turns.
On a day off i was skiing, and bumped into this kid in the lodge with his dad. The kid asked me if i could take him on the Big Chair (double black diamond) for a couple of runs, as his dad was coaching and couldnt. His dad said the kid had to go with an adult and if I was willing, i could take him.
This kid had very little problem skiing the moguls on the double black diamond 38 degree slope. It was something to behold.
Haha that’s awesome! I know there are many that have come before us. 🙏
This is so awesome, she will grow up to be amazing human because she did all these awesome things with her dad, good job for investing into your kids, it’s so beautiful.
Sir I salute you. You are 100% spot on with your parenting choices. Oh,.. and… I wish I could ski a double black diamond with 4 year old on my hip as confidently as you can!
Great job Adia, always a big fan of her
Wow.. I felt like I saw one good adventure movie that can be named Daddy of The Year! Surely your kids are learning challenging themselves and being patient and confident for any hard situations. I am so proud of your kids! 😆
Little girl is adorable. Good job to dad in raising confident fearless kids. God knows we need more kids with grit and courage.
You are a great dad! 👍 your children are beautiful 🥰❤❤❤❤❤
Oh my goodness Aida you did great. And dad you were wonderful. You ARE doing it right. Way to go family. Wheeeee. Lol.
This approach to life gives the opportunity for more growth. Your children are extremely lucky. I was introduced to challenging activities at a young age and I am better for it. Keep up the fun and challenges. Great job dad.
Wonderfull!!! We can see their confidence, their risk assessment skills and good reactions to the challenges (no bad anxiety at all, and this is soo important I think).
No one and nth is perfect but boy you are doing an awsome job.
Thanks for sharing with us
Just incredible she is amazing!
OMG I can hardly type because i am squeeling with delight at the cuteness level of this. Your daughter is just awesome, your sons are warriors and you ARE THE GREATEST DAD EVER. What is the sexy level of daddy skiing his princess down the hill in his arms. Man o man am I glad I subscribe to this channel excellent family lessons, carry on teaching your children to be strong, wise, confident and competent and not affraid to at least try things in life. Well done Sir, well done!!😀Hugs from Canada
On my first day ever skiing i rode black diamond, it was absolutely ice and amazing
I can only wish my parents had 1% of your parenting skills. We always chalk it up to a "generational issue" but I firmly disagree. Thank you for this wonderful cast.
You are one of the best dad's ever and adia is fearless.
I really needed this video. I am a strong believer of allowing my kids to take on challenges. This means my son trusts me when it comes to risk assessment. He has also started to show massive improvement in risk assessment of his own. My son has started to take on a steady diet of blacks himself because they are new and challenge his ever improving skills.
Your philosophies align with how I would like to raise my kids. My next challenge is getting my younger child skiing and balancing their abilities.
I feel parenting is 🌟Thank You ❗️
She literally warms my heart bless her ❤ that daddy daughter time is priceless and irreplaceable, the time, confidence, courage, love and support and basically just what you give her all round is amazing and reminds me of my own “daddy daughter” time learning to sail not ski, and let’s face it she’s just SO cute too love her 🥰 and the “Adia what’s TikTok” “I don’t know” video never fails to make me laugh 😂❤
I just watched your video. Your daughter is great. She had jokes that had me laughing. Like out of nowhere she said I'm hungry. It's also great that you are building confidence in your children
To put your words simpler: You guided and supported (physically and emotionally) down challenging terrain . . . LOVINGLY.
Nice job Adia! You inspired me to try a daffy today- I did one but the second time I tried it I caught my tip. There's always tomorrow. 👍🏻 My parents did not parent the way you do but I wish they had! I'm learning how to be competent and confident through skiing- and it most definitely translates to every other area of life.
Good on ya dad! the kids where learning life skill and loving it.
Children learn by doing dangerous and difficult things carefully… good job dad! They are learning a lot of life’s lessons without even realizing it, this is great stuff to watch.
Listening to the two adults talk at around 6:00 has to be the most stereotypically Canadian conversation I’ve ever heard lol. I’m saying this as someone from east coast USA.. great videos guys!!
I don’t think the 360° cam really shows how steep those slopes really can be!! Wayyy to go Aida! I know I’d be way more scared than she is!!
Your kids, for their short time of life, are so confident and that is a credit to the parenting skills.
So many people that are not used to go out of their comfort zone are probably be the ones thinking the kids shouldn’t be allowed outside the small slope and some even thinking kids should just be playing on the playground.
Great job 👏
amazing job Adia I did the same thing when i was four so proud of you! 💗
You are all wonderful. Love you all ❤❤❤❤❤
I think this is great! My Dad taught my sister and I how to ski when we were itty bitty too. Some of my best childhood memories are from our ski trips. It’s a sport I love and now my kids do too!
These memories and lessons will last her a lifetime!
Awesome mom & dad!
Wow great job, CONQUERED the tires hill!!!!
In the three almost four years that I first started watching this The Mountain Life Addia was skiing down by your house steps, barely 1 or 1 1/2 years old. Never have you ever pushed, coaxed, your children to do anything that was too dangerous, too scary, or something they did not want to do...We need MORE parents that teach so much confidence, manners, sportsmanship as you are as their FATHER!!❤ The experiences are the best teacher, you are always there helping with your wife or your parents.
YOU SHOULD BE COMMENTED, YOUR WIFE TOO!!!! Thank you for sharing with us,.
I really like your approach, I think it is important for kids to learn to push boundaries/take some risks while they are still small: It is much safer that way!
We're Norwegian, but the 1991-92 winter we lived in Utah, so our sone who turned 2 just after we arrived, got to ski in Alta, Solitude, Snowbird, Park City, Sundance etc every weekend. By Feb/Mar he was going down the blue runs, with people yelling down from the lifts: "How old is that kid?", from above he was just a helmet with a pair of skis underneath.
We would reply "He's two, but that's OK: We're from Norway!"
This was just after Norway had really cleaned up in the Albertville, France Olympics, so we felt it was important to remind everyone that Yes, Norwegians are born with their skis on. 🙂
Awesome stuff! Thanks for sharing
Wow thos kids is Awesome. and she is only 4. if i go down there i nead som cleen underwear. you must be a very proud father. and those children must be very proud of themselves. they drive many places even brave adults wouldn't drive. bravo to the kids. 🥶👍👍👍
Oh you need to keep that baby skier hydrated man! Hahaha lovin' ya' from K.C.!
Dont worry about your way of raising your child, Youre doing an AWESOME job!!!!!
My parents did the hands off approach, support me in my endeavours, but everything had its consequences, some good some bad... gave me the ability to solve and problem that comes my way and just adjust to the situation... best life lesson ever...
Wow, Ihre Kinder sind so mutig. Ich finde es sehr bemerkenswert wie August, Luca und Adia Ski fahren. Auch das August und Luca sehr geduldig sind, sie sind tolle Brüder. Es macht einfach Spaß ihnen zuzuschauen, und Adia ist ein ganz zauberhaftes und fröhliches Mädchen. Ein Video von Ihnen und mein Tag ist ein besserer!
Eine großartige Arbeit, die Sie leisten, Sie und Ihre Frau, Ihre Kinder zu selbstbewussten, starken Menschen zu erziehen, die sich den Herausforderungen stellen werden. Und ganz wichtig, der Zusammenhalt in der Familie und die wertvolle, gemeinsame Zeit!! Ihnen allen alles Gute und weiterhin spannende Abenteuer. 😃⛷️🎿🏄🏻🍀
You're doing great job with your kiddos
So awesome to capture this moment!
what an epic video, seeing the kids take on a slope I would struggle to do is inspirational. Keep doing what you do guys.
Awesome getting your kids out on that Trail!!!
Just got back from Colorado with 2 of mine.
Hi massive mountain woah I was scared watching 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Dad you’ve got a big job with these x😊😊
Those boys had great patience, they were doing awsome, same goes to the 4 year old girl!
Excellent parent - great example of empowering your children 👍
awesome dad and awesome kids...keep up the good work!
Such a great video! Thank you for that!
I was watcing this and thinking "good on you to throw challenges at Adia". Not once was I thinking, "wow that was a bad choice". I would have never learned if I was not challenged. I worked for ski hills in a office environment for many years and ski very little every year. I took on a senior management position and the president of the ski hill insisted that I must ski at least three - four times a week. Every time I went out, he joined me and gave me challenge every time. I went from a confident blue run skier to a very confident black diamond skier in one season. It was step by step, little challenge at a time and that is what builds character and life skills. Adia will continue to challenge herself even when you stop pushing her.
Sweetest video I’ve ever seen…. What a great Papa!♥️
i must say he teaches his kids very well... he makes it easy rather than forcing them down it or letting them not go down it... good video.
That was impressive! Well done.
Great video. I love seeing how you kept the children safe - ish while making them feel confident. You are doing a wonderful job Eric, teaching them skills and how to tackle tricky problems haha. The children will never forget going down over the tyres. And when your little girl has had enough, she is bundled into safe arms. Fantastic.
You are a great teacher. Awesome!
All four of you did a great job on the tires 😀. Glad Luca didn’t hurt himself there, it looked like a painful slide.
You are AMAZING and so are yours kids. I wish I had someone close to me just like you, maybe I'd feel more confident to try more challenging blue runs instead of only living in the green runs because I'm afraid and have low confidence, even though my coaches say I have the skills. Thank you so much for this awesome video.
I wish I had some popcorn ;) Very impressive Dad!
Outstanding parenting in very difficult situation, as well as excellent teaching! Lastly, YOU are a GREAT skier!
