What a trip. Skiing Japan is definitely a dream of mine. A fun episode to watch. 20 years ago, I had a similar, although less grand experience. I was living in Aspen and got a call on the morning of the last day of the ski season from a guy from Ice Ski Polls. "Do you know why I'm calling you?" was his first line too. I had won a trip to Park City to go Cat Skiing with Glen Plake. That trip, even though it was just one day in the Cat is still one of the greatest ski days of my life. The skiing was awesome as we had a late season storm the night before, and his comment about the pros skiing really fast was so true. Plake was skiing on some super G boards back then, and it was ridiculous trying to keep up with him once we entered the trees. Thanks for putting this video together. It is good to dream.
So happy to see a guy who truly made the most of the experience, and also happened to be a good skier. It's always fun to see the pros when they're not skiing, and being human again.
Simply one of the best videos that you'll ever make. I envy that boy so much that You can't even imagine it. Skiing with Mike and Kaj in Japan would make me the happiest guy in the world
Such a good play Salomon. Might have been one of my favorite episodes. So rad to see how pumped that guy was to experience his dream trip. No corners were cut. full experience.
Fantastic photography, very grateful person, one of my favourite salomon freeski tv episodes. So nice to see a humble person enjoy the slopes with the pros.
this is awesome! My dream trip would be Douglas, Cody, and Kaj in Whistler, because what better way to be shown around the best mountain in the world than by a hometown boy and his rippin buddies?!
Hey Mike, what are the skis you guys are using in the touring segment? I am looking at getting my first set of skis and wanted something with a bit of touring capability for getting into the back country.
What are the skis at 4:50 (the one used by the contest winner)? and at 5:00 (used by Mike Douglas)? Are they not on sale yet? .. Oh and love the show guys, been watching for a couple of season, it's amazing, it makes me dream!
+Mike Douglas Thats nice little piece of equpment! I havnt recall you used this before. Great shots and rides as allways! Thx! btw, you just revealed greates secred of good skiing - 'Go that way, really fast. If something gets in your way... turn' :) have a good next season
Do you guys use some sort of gimbal to get those smooth follow shots? And if so is it some sort of third part GoPro mount or is it an actual camera like the DJI Osmos?
+TWP Productions Pietari I must admit it is reminiscent of Lindsey's early dubstep pieces, however, this SizzleBird's "Valley". You can find the song, along with a lot more wonderful chillstep music, on his Bandcamp page. ;) Enjoy!
Oh my god... The winner speaks the sterotype german accent ;) Actually, german schools are putting much effort in teaching their students to speak without this accent.. Zumindest in Bayern (by the way, sorry for my own mistakes)

Park city is TRAAASSSSSHHHHHH, should have gone to powderbird or other Alta cat skiing
Mike Douglas does it all, including one-ski front flips!
This is probably the best of Salomon Freeski I have seen. Very good theme and real professional job. The lucky one was the one to choose.
Amazing lifetime experience, with the right people and at the right magic powder wonderful land! Life doesn't get any better!
So happy to see a guy who truly made the most of the experience, and also happened to be a good skier. It's always fun to see the pros when they're not skiing, and being human again.
One of the best episodes ever! Really great to see you guys skiing with fans!
Yes totally !!
Mike, the shots and the cinematography just keep getting better. nik is one lucky dude. now I'm totally stoked for the coming season. 😵
Wow that was a really amazing episode. Japan just looks incredible! Nik looks like he would fit in well as one of the free ski team.
Call an ambulance because Im about to die of jealousy. By the way that shot following the skier downhill was one of the best Ive seen.
Nice to see proof that people actually win these types of contests !!!
That is absolutely my dream trip too. The snow, the place, and even the skiers. Awesome episode but I am mad jealous!
Simply one of the best videos that you'll ever make. I envy that boy so much that You can't even imagine it. Skiing with Mike and Kaj in Japan would make me the happiest guy in the world
I can't describe how intensely happy this video made me! Pure happiness. Thank you!
German guy! ;)
Such a sick video! (Night skiing music is so nice!)
The camera guy shreds the hardest! Bottom half of the ninth minute, some serious skill there.
Such a good play Salomon. Might have been one of my favorite episodes. So rad to see how pumped that guy was to experience his dream trip. No corners were cut. full experience.
Yes! Such a good episode. This should be segment each season, this is why I love Salomon Freeski TV!
Fantastic photography, very grateful person, one of my favourite salomon freeski tv episodes. So nice to see a humble person enjoy the slopes with the pros.
