That is the most snow I have ever seen in the landing. My entire family hit it, women and children. As with skis just land on your butt and your good. No skill need with epic powder. No powder on a snowboard, it's for real son.
The drop is nothing once you make skis a part of your body, it's what the landing is that makes any drop significant, this run often has a horrible landing, lol
@@gbh5912 Absolutely agree with you. You can't tell from the videos but the landing is super poppy and flat. Guess that is why it is fun right. Hope you enjoyed the season. Oh wait it still going 😀
@staceymurray9644 I've never heard of the White Lady, and in fact didn't even know they skied there. I was blessed, I grew up in Vancouver, B.C., and I've been skiing Whistler Mountain since the second year it was open. 1968. To say I've witnessed some changes is an understatement.
Exactly! Tons of other different ways to have fun skiing, with a much lower probability of breaking your back, hip, legs, ankle and so on. Have to admit though, looks fun
If you are not enjoying the marathon is it life? You may be alive while progressing through the marathon but are you living? To enjoy the marathon NOW some people have to harm their bodies in the long run. It is unfortunate but to each their own.
You have the best chance if you land on your edges instead of a flat ski. This way you are already into your first control turn. A hip-check is even better.
I went once and we talked mad shit about how we were gonna do it. It ended up being closed the two days we were there and to be honest we were relieved. And our group were all very experienced and we all typically hit anything there is to offer at any location.
Why is it that people now-a-days are never satisfied to pursue the simple achievements? Its the super dangerous life threatening that they go after? And sometimes not even when they see how some of their fellow friends loose their lives,p they'll have second thoughts, about putting their lives in danger and the same happening to them. Where's does their love for their family counts? they are so careless in staying alive and most importantly, being well to raise. the kids they brought into this world! I remember in the early seventies they have those really tall Toboggan at the entaietainement parks and I really want to go slidding down one and went! I was then a young single mother of a few months old baby! They had just thrown wax over it! Going down and up and then just hitting the top of the ups & downs I suddenly realized that i wasķ sliding down way to fast, what if I didn't stop at the end of the run?? I would hit the metal gate about 8 ft away at the entrance and no doubt bust my body against it at a very high speed! The realization at the moment that this fun thing could be very dangerous to my health and leave my daughter motherless hit me like a ton of bricks and there was nothing left to do but pray that it ends well and I could go back home to my baby safe and sound That was the moment in my life, that responsibility knocked at my door, and I promissed that I would never again put myself in a situation where my daughter run the risk of being motherless, since I was her only support! Exaggerated, looking back at what I was so fearful of, maybe, but the fear was so very real!
as I understand it, sometimes young children and their parents can get in safely, and other times even daring young people have their doubts and turn away that day.
Reminds me of an old Woody Woodpecker cartoon where there are a bunch of hooded something's lined up on the cliff and when it goes over they all put their arms up in Scream woo!!!
