On the trail Conclusion, there is a cliff line, sometimes referred to as Concussion Line, that is to the skier's left of the trail. It has a few steep pitches, and when I did it there was some exposed grass.
In steep terrain an aggressive confident pole plant will commit your upper body to the fall line. Instead of trying to ride the first turn around just let the tips drop and you're already past the fall line. Put most of the weight on the downhill ski and let the uphill one float. Turn quickly to keep the upper body flowing down. Lots of tight turns will create the hanging in space feel and time will stand still. Bang a few while looking for a good spot to scrub speed. Never go full ballistic until you are sure of the run out.
I was taught to push on my big toe on my downhill ski and unweight the uphill. Best lesson ever. As simple and fool proof as it gets. Vermont and East coast always have the icy spots.
I remember hitting that by accident one day. Was trying to stick to the right but got forced left. Amazed I didn't break anything. That was before I really got used to moguls.
Just seems like a dangerous run that's patrolled to me, if you don't want them to follow, moutains usually always have sperate peaks nearby you can hike to and have runs that are un patrolled but you must be expert level and trained for avalanches
Ya! Me and my friends all love the difficult terrain. I will be going back to Killington this year, do you have any suggestions? When we went a lot of the terrain wasn't open because it was so early in the year.
@@skiingwithmax3902 Any of the double Blacks at Killington is a challenge. Bear Mountain has Outer Limits which is considered one of their most difficult runs. In fact, the last time I skied it was that slope some 30 years ago.
Cliff Line is nice to run, but knowing that double black versus Bromley's Plunge I have no idea why it's a double black. (Literally just the drop in is difficult).
Yeah. I was like 11 in that video lol. You should watch this video that I just posted from Jay Peak, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PxcKo7_1QYI.html
