- In this episode, Marcus travels to Minneapolis, Minnesota to experience The Ski Challenge -- the largest recreational ski racing program in the world. What we found was an extremely passionate group of skiers, and that it doesn't take big mountains to have fun on skis.
This is skiing man. Nothing corporate. All about the love of it and the GENUINE culture.
This is one of my favorite videos of the series. No epic views, no deep pillow lines, no mach speed carving, but still pure distilled stoke, and ski enthusiasts having the time of their lives. This is what it's all about, and I'm proud to be a part of this community!
Marcus, I hope you appreciate the amount of magic you're creating for an industry that mostly regurgitates the same uninspired and tired stories for almost thirty years. Your point of view is, as the kids say, "on point." Keep up the great work.
Thank you, TUADC! I, for one, appreciate MC's humility and respect for the sport. It's supposed to be fun, after all.
Came for the mustache, stayed for the narrative style.
Something I’ve never understood is how people have bad days on the mountain. Skiing is a blast. Full stop. These people get it. ❤❤ I could even go to Deer Valley and have fun 😄.
Best ski series on the net
I have fallen in LOVE with RETURN OF THE TURN!
The best skier out there is the one having the most fun!
Thirteen turns top to bottom. Bigger mountain than I started skiing in the 1960's. Many, many small Pennsylvania ski areas have closed with the loss to the communities. Others have become a land development or resort with a ski area. We need to support our local mountains so they exist for the next generation of snow riders. Yes, I'm still out there enjoying sliding on different toys.
This series is absolutely great
My favorite episode so far! Great story. I love that they love skiing with nothing to really ski! Great attitudes ;)
Yup. Us midwesterners will ski anything and enjoy it.
I watch all your videos, and have watched them many many times but I always return to this one for the SOUL of skiing, you nailed it. Love the pancakes too. It really is about having fun!!!
We need a beer league like this in southern Ontario!!
I’m from the Midwest and have never skied the West or East. None of my friends know how to ski but I’ll eventually make it out there.
All there is to do here is turn! Nothing super steep, and nothing long. We just get good at carving a line but I know when I make it out West it’ll be worth it.
I love that bare-bones skiing culture. Thanks for this fun film. It was fun to watch.
"Eat pasta. Smoke rasta. Ski fasta." 😂
I reckon I gotta give it to Minnesota skiers! I'll put them right there with us eastern geeks. Reminds me of The Berkshires! Marcus should come visit-Mohawk, Berkshire East and Jiminy Peak- the 'big' three! He'd have a blast ! Sick edit, MC! Really captures the spirit.
P.S.- Weed's legal in MA. Dials in the stoke. Let's just say it helps!
P.P.S.- Great convo with Ellsworth on The Blister Podcast. Inspiring!
SFLNT!
I just found this searies and am binge watching throuh the whole thing... some of the best ski content on the net imo, cant wait for more of this
This is the real soul of skiing
Came for the skiing... stayed for the pancakes.
Loving the Deer Tick soundtrack
Marcus, I’ve been your fan since you started return of the turn. Thank you for your effort. I currently live in Michigan but love little cottonwood canyon. I like your opinion about skiing because I totally understand what you saying being a michiganer. This episode really touched me from my heart.
52-1:12 there are so few pieces of footage that can go 20 seconds and not spoil pacing. That 20 seconds is the absolute key to the pacing here.
when in doubt Carve It Out !
Thanks for the love letter, Marcus.
Wow dude... the editing, the shots, the narrative, this is one of the best uploads I’ve seen In a long time. What you have made here is actually inspiring and I can’t wait to see more from you. You from the Midwest then?
utah
5:04 straight out of a cartoon
Totally different conditions but exactly the same joy of skiing I pursue in New Zealand and Japan. Come ski in Japan or New Zealand!
My home hill! Also it's definitely not great skiing, but when they're out of steak and hamburger is all that's left, that's good enough.
Awesome video! Getting amped for some ice coast turns.
Marcus, you are an awesome dude! Thanks for this, can't wait to get on my boards again. Come to Ragged Mt. in NH some time soon. Ski the East, Born from Ice.
Learned to ski at highland hills, spent a lot of time at buck hill and afton alps as a kid, not the biggest vertical but you can still have a lot of fun there.
Still wanna see that powder segment though :)
inspiring! Keep doing these please.
Buck is great for a quick 2 - 3 hour workout. $24. Beats the gym. Thank God Marcus did not reveal the bump run location. Race suits. Chasin' sticks. Cool. If that's your thing. Less riders hittin' the bumps. See ya out there.
We need this on the Wasatch Front!
Midwest pride!
I can relate.
Never seen a ski hill right next to a main road lol
Loveland
And Copper
Marcus, what’s your ski and boot setup that you used in this video?
👍
"The new race suit didn't help at all".
The complete skier loves to rip hardpack. Period.
