Waiting for someone to say "this is a blue square trail where I come from in Europe." Apparently Europeans ski off the back ramp of a C130 at 35,000 feet with no parachute.
@@elonmust7470 having the alps doesn’t make their intermediate trails have a 15 - 20 foot near vertical drop in onto a 45 degree slope with hard rock walls on both sides and rock bands in the middle of the couloir
I've done it nearly 20 times (lived in Teton Village 2 years in the 70's). Stay way LEFT which is counter-intuitive because of the rock wall, but it's by far the easiest track. My roommate and I actually skied into this (no stopping at the edge !!). We both blew out of our bindings ....pretty wild ride for sure.
Going out there next year and I’ve set my mind to do this I can’t wait to go “oh fuck that’s steeper than I thought” even though it looks insaneee right now. Nice job boys may have fallen but at least you leaped
This video does a great job of capturing the Corbets experience. You guys are having a great time and that is what skiing is all about. Fuck the bitching and stick throwing. Get out there and enjoy yourself!
That was like a comedy, "you gotta do it again" good work boyssss, this is just some young guys having the kinda fun that happens in the resorts out west on a daily basis
Totally fucking rad dude! I have only been skiing a few years so this looks insane. Good to see some people actually try it and have fun doing it! Sweetttt
The camera does not show the magnitude of this chute. I have been to almost every ski area in the Western US over the past 20 years, and this chute is one of the scariest. I've skied many expert runs, but I won't go off of this one.
That looks awesome, if it is in these conditions when I go I'm hoping to try it. But if there's less snow and more of a straight drop I just don't think I'm skilled enough.
This runs on my bucket list, from the videos of the run, jumping over the lip seems to be the best approach since it’s such a sheer drop. However jumping in is really ballsy so I don’t even know if and how I am going to approach it since i’m sure it looks way steeper in real life.
TGR did a session there with John Spriggs, Griffin Post, Daniel Tisi, Matt Phillipi, Max Hammer, & Jeff Ledger. 180, 360, front/back flips, switch...they had the advantage of landing straight & knowing the run out was clear.
I half wanted to see you guys do the drop, but then again screwing up something that big would be incredibly painful. I got to give you props though, how do you think it would be on a board?
I’m a young, but very good skier. I’ve worked my way through jumping many cliffs, going at very high speeds and getting used to it, and downhill skiing. My ultimate goal is Corbets Couloir. Any tips?
Age is irrelevant, all that matters is time spent. There's 8 year olds who are better than the majority of adults because they have the time and luxury to be constantly on the hill.
The slope isn't that horrible, it the fact that you start with a jump that imparts a shit ton more initial velocity than just rolling over the edge right on to the slope. Couple that with cliff faces 50' apart and it tends to be challenging.
wow, lief if these guys knew us even a little bit they would laugh at how far off these comments are, were from minnesota and do 1 ski trip a year... we have nothing to prove to anyone, but we sure know how to have fun! :P
Don't try to play it off. That's a full-on Red Bull helmet or a decent replica :) Not that anyone but 3arnotg even cares? Nice helmet; but the skillset doesn't quite match expectations to the outside observer :) Some might even call you a poser. Far as I'm concerned, people can mind their own business. Keep having fun, and screw anyone who's got a problem with that ;)
