What they call "sluff" is what normal people call an avalanche.

@MegaBanne 5 лет назад

A sluff is a type of avalanche, but not the kind that most people think of. The by far most dangerous and by far most frequent type of avalanches are the slab avalanches.

@1ironaut538 2 года назад

@@smnckl8602 oh my god this comment is 6 years old?? Crazy. Funny thing is, you guys aren’t wrong. I did have many years of successful trick and riding progression, but in March 2020 I ended up fracturing 2 vertebrae in a bad crash. Luckily, the injuries healed without surgery and I’m back to full strength and able to ski again. I learned an invaluable lesson in safety and risk assessment, and a new appreciation and view on life. Stupid? Maybe. Would I take it back? Absolutely 100%. But I am thankful and much better off than many others who have suffered chasing their passions, and love life everyday.

@yoyusung7096 5 лет назад

isnt that called falling?

@MikeGreenwood51 5 лет назад

Controlled fall on skis above the fluffly snow. Even going down a 1 in 20 nursery slope at 7 miles an hour is falling. Falling or using the gravitation fall line is what a lot of ski is about. So whilst there is some falling it's called sking. Nadia Komenech was falling as she won Olympic gold. But what may look like a fall to some was her controlled dismount.
