Actually the land the gap is on is owned by Apta and will eventually be lift service. The space that makes the gap is 100 year old mine dump with a mine road between piles. You have to put in a hundred man hours or so to build the kicker proper. I've not seen it set up right since about 2002 when chad was still doing it. It's only 80 feet from the edge where it gets built after snowboarders started trying .
0:58 “my ankles are broken!! “ “his ankles are broken!” That’s the exact same line from the episode of it’s always Sunny where the gang hits the slopes. Dennis falls at the end and says it exactly like that. I never knew they were imitating this!!
Sage Kotstenburg hands-down the best trick with most style 01:20 (Maybe Romain Demarchi comes close 00:22, suprisingly the kickers don't look so much different..)
The gap is only 80 feet where they built jump at edge of tailing. Chad built his booster in the middle of the mine dump on north side of road. I've measured it with a loggers 100 foot tape . I've never hot or, but my photo on another gap was used in powder mag article to discourage people from just thinking anyone can build and successfully make this jump. The one got printed of me was 96 foot gap with 15 foot step up and the article describes Tanner breaking his legs and the blood on landing from a life flight the week before his accident.
the position of the booster pad is only 80 feet from the take off to the landing. this is the short version that snow boarders started doing about 15 years ago because they could not actually make the 120 feet gap. Chad used to build the kicker at the north side of the mine tailing pad, these all have the kicker at the south lip of the mine dump. ive measured this with a 100 foot loggers tape. its 80 feet not 120. you show one guy over shoot the landing and he may have done 120. the rest are going 80 to 90 feet.
"My ankles are broken!" Holy fuck that's where always sunny gets the line when Dennis breaks his ankles skiing. I'm fucking dying yo
Only missing one iconic shot! Tanner Halls redemption dub backie from 2018!
*2016
Candide Thovex is the true GOAT of Chad's gap and, overall, of freestyle and freeride skiing.. Love Tanner though
😂😂
There has never been a bigger overshoot in the history of overshoots than Mike Wilson.
Sinon Dumont wasn’t bigger but there was no powder 💀
@@westindisbih725 exactly
legends. I cant believe they can leave the ground with balls that heavy
Sometimes the ankles pays the price of the extra weight :/
Sore backs
looks like judging speed is tricky on this one
they overbuilt the kicker later on.
I have been to Chad's. It is pretty hard to gauge the distance.
I hope that guy’s ankles are OK
@@eracerJoe that's t hall. He's coo. Competing still!
@@eracerJoe his ankles are broke
MY ANKLES ARE BROKEN. fuuuuuuuuuuuh
IKR
That is a bad day. Broke one at Joliet supercross in 2000. Hasn’t been the same since. Still rockin though. Have fun!
@@jro341 Damn J Ro good for you for keeping it going. Make the most of it!
Thovex is the king in my book!
You mountain folk are insane! I love it! 😄
Did they ever find Mike Wilson?
LOL
😅
Some say he is still falling
Hes still stuck in this landing
ruclips.net/video/IWK5sK-yph0/видео.html
Did Mike Wilson survive that???! 1:05
yea... thats what i was thinkin
*the kicker becomes vastly better later on.* candind and chad did it with almost no kicker.
2019? how'd they get there, thought ski patrol blew it up
No? Can you imagine how pissed people would get?
It’s a running joke so people don’t go
@@etiennemazellier gotcha

@@TheJellybean2319 Ahhh ok, that's why there was snowboarders hitting it.
Willie Nelson? Didn't know he learnt to ski that well somewhere in middle of his country career.

I lost my shit when I saw that scene because I got the reference instantly.
Coming off that jump switch on skis is nuts.
Legendary Chad's Gap. I remember this gap when Candide Thovex, made it first and Tannner Hall came back and made it. It's like iniatiation Chad's GAP.
I have been to Chad's Gap and still can't believe people do it.
Mike Wilson at 1:03, did he survive?? He flew so far!
holy hell man that was just insane
Yeah look up his rope swings. Dude is a maniac.
@@loopghost he needed a longer hill
What a chad

Mike Wilson landed in another mountain range
I had mind the addiction when it came out and the candide spot was the craziest thing I'd ever seen. With the M.O.M soundtrack behind it
They should rename "chad's gaps little brother" to "virgins gap"
It’s called pyramid gap. And it’s fucking massive.
Humans are amazing
We had a 60 meter jump in Banff
We used it when the jump season was over
Believe me there’s nothing like sailing 70 meters
much less inverted. 🇨🇦
RIP mike Wilson 😞
Holy frick mike Wilson went so far on his dub backie
WOW!, Chad sure has a BIG GAP!! LOL
I was here!
The first jumps look much farther somehow. For me thovex is king 😎
This kicker created broken jaws.
Holy shit Travis Rice SENT that
Nice to see Willie Nelson skis in his free time
As insane as this already is then Travis almost OJs the entire landing. Mayhem.
Rice.
Classic Trav... WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
FUCall ! Haaa to good a time great vid great song
travis came in so mfkin fast bruh
Wow Super Jump :-)
Sickness … I’d love to see Nicko Vink hit this on a mtb
Where’s the Jerry’s sending it straight as a board and landing in the flat?
Doing the one foot .......unreal!!!!
Did the overshoot die?
Nah he was ok lol
His ankles are broken!
Hi
what a chad
How the fuck did mike Wilson get that much air holy shit
Well you see, he forgot to pop
Man you can really see the difference betwern snowboarding and skiers in those big airs
Yeah, skiers have two planks on their feet and snowboarders only have one.
@@the6ig6adwolf nah the boarders started building the kicker 40 ft closer
You forgot to include dan greene in this
It's now Sage's gap
Why
@@fk4410 lol just cuz that's my favorite trick done on this gap so far
Travis rice went like 400’ lol
1:03
Should have included Tanner's return
Just send it.
What the song?
Daylight by matt and Kim
Great band tbh
That Willie Nelson shot was Pyramid
But can you... lay tuck tuck triple?

Fuck yeah Matt and Kim
to ez gg
Willie nelson skis? Hmmmm
Why would anyone hit this? Mis judge slightly and your ankles explode...
Travis rice didn't even use the landing lol
Best one is when the biggest kook in the world tanner hall snaps his ankles.
Dude 1:04 may have hit 200ft. Easy
Candy gap- where heels ankles and acls dont exist
Ian''s hit was Pyramid not Chads.
Facts haha I thought that was so funny they mixed it up
@@801actioncam still massive hit, and i could only tell after we were talking about this edit one evening.
Dude I just realized that the Willie Nelson hit is also pyramid gap 😂
Missing Christopher Bartimiolis gap he was actuslly the first to backy on the rail and land back on it but ex wife ruined his career in 09
Ski....
Bruh 😂😂 wtf happen to mike wilson
?
Snowboarders don't count
And then you fake it
I only gave you a thumbs down- simply for the music choice/volume... bad editing. Regarding Chad's Gap... I'll stay on the Collins lift.
Nn
Amazing skiing. Music absolutely sucks!
