THE COOLEST SKI LIFT IN THE WORLD - MountainVLOG 2 

That backwards and forwards skiing when negotiating the terrain at the 16:40 mark is just beautiful.

The amount of anxiety I get when they're close to the edge is insane

I love how Tof just shows up out of nowhere, on his own, says hi then just takes off again. Absolute legend.

OMG what a views. What a PRO skiers! This is what I call serious skiing. Ok let me go back to my red and black slopes....

7:02 one tiny mistake and its adios amigos

The actual Couloir footage... absolutely breathtaking! But can we all take a minute to appreciate that sick combat skiing at the end? Very slick.

It's tough to really know without being there in person but a couple of those spots I'm not sure I'd trust anything but crampons.

I skied that. And it was the most incredible experience I ever had. Just be aware of the real dangers. You could smell rotting flesh on occasion from what the glacier claimed.

Insane... my inner self shuts down watching this. Unreal to be happy and cool in these conditions.

“What little ant person walked here” 6:00 hahahahahah

f-king hilariously good skiing throughout , but love the pivot rock moves at the end

Awesome video! Thanks! I did something like this - another route down the Aiguille du Midi - back in my 20's (1980's). On the lift up they stopped the cablecar about 300 feet before the stop, opened the doors, and 2 skiers threw themselves out and down. The lift feels nearly vertical at the top before the station. It looks so crazy today. -Frank

I would literally die if I tried any of this

Now show us what your bases and edges look like! :D great skiing!

I'm a ski racer but I too enjoy doing some off road. But not like this,on a semi-steep hill up at 2700m and I just glide and cruise on the snow and it's truly amazing

That was hella scary to watch. Crazy how chill you guys are when skiing in such rocky and steep (and deadly) areas. Hope you guys stay safe! I love the passion you guys have in skiing, its great :)

That was legit those pov's on the entry into that thing game me goose bumps.

I was literally watching the first 30 seconds thinking “damn, that looks like so much fun. Tooln’ around on rock skis!” Then record scratch

Great ski descent, looks so awesome and fun that you forget the possible danger.

I would shit bricks at the thought of doing anything like this...hats off to these guys, super talented with balls of steel. I'll be sticking to the pistes this year thank you very much!

My butt hasn't stopped puckering from the moment you left that lift!

Finally some skiers I'm jealous of. This is my kind shooshing.

This makes me glad I only mountaineer and climb . Huge respect to you guys .

I'm a novice skier who went down my first Canadian green run two weeks ago, and I swear it looked EXACTLY LIKE THAT ONLY A BIT STEEPER.

Wow just wow. There is off piste and than there is off piste like this. Truly you are skiing superheroes.

Hah, I thought I was something for finding my own powder on a small hill in a spot out of bounds where no one goes... You guys are my inspiration after watching this, haha!

My grandfather was born and raised in Norway. His name was Marcus Adrian Ness. He came from Norway when he was 16, on a moments notice by ship with his older brother back in the 1890's. He was in the Spanish-American War. He settled in Duluth, Minnesota. A city with many Norwegians and worked for the railroads. He married, built a nice home, had three daughters, the youngest, my mother. All of whom went to college and became teachers. The oldest was Junior high school home economics teacher, the middle was an art education professor in the New York University system at Brooklyn College. My mother graduated from Northwestern University with honors in choral conducting and piano. There's more to the story, I don't want you to fall asleep. I LOVE lefse and Gjetost (yay- toast) cheese. I ski, but not at that level.

Nice film! What's the drone situation in Chamonix? I thought it was banned?

“Pretty far left”. “You communist”. 😂😂

Thanks for posting this. I got to snowboard this descent a few times in 94-95, in deep powder, all the way to the valley: hands down my best days riding ever. Thanks for the memories! (That entry looked brutal up top tho...ugh)

Awesome video 🙌. Perfectly sums up the Chamonix skiing experience in the first 30 seconds! And great riding from you all in nasty conditions....

The snow at Alta would fall 5 to 6 feet in a night. That's desert powder. When you scooped it up in your glove and blew on it it would just hang there in the air. There is a run their called East Greeley. to get into the top of it you have to free fall 60 feet down a vertical cliff face. But then your looking at a wide open face of 6 feet deep powder, when you make your turns you go under the surface of the snow and emerge again on the top of the turn. You never feel the hill. You are skiing on air all the way down 25 turns as I recall. They had a word for it 'spacial' also 'orgasmic'. Men would literally fall in love with the mountains.

My heart was pounding at the beginning, I was nervous traversing within the ropes. Absolutely awesome run and the way you skied forwards and backwards around those rocks at the end was genius ! Going to try that move 🍻

Pleasantly surprised by watching a video not made by the big names like gopro and redbull, still excellent content, and not omitting the sucky parts, like going home on the side of the highway. Keep up the good work and stay safe!

A very nice line! But I don´t do such things anymore. When I got my first son I came to evaluate risks differently. The change was imminent as when I first held him in my hands. However now I love to watch other skiers doing their thing on places I have been around and elsewhere. Keep it up and stay safe!

God this makes me feel sick! My iPad just slipped out of my hands with the amount of sweat coming from my palms.

Loved the comment about the steps and the ant person. Too Funny! Been there quite a few times...

Just insane, but I could not stop watching

This makes me think about the time when I was young. Not a care in the world and the only exiting way down was off-piste. I remember the feelling standing on a icy almost 90 degree cliff thinkig this is not going to work out, but it always did. I remember walking miles in deep snow to get back to the piste after a wonderful freeride through a valley. Now weve got responsibilities, tend to take things easy. Thank you for this video.

The technique at the end of that video was breathtaking! The video as a whole unbelievably good. Nerves of steel!

Y’all some crazy euros.

@ 14:27 that perspective is beyond my Saturday in Northern Ontario looking out at my 40cm blizzard and dreaming of steeps! You guys have such a TIGHTLY unique group there...that's an experience not many will ever get to be in! @ 17:27 I was thinking what this guy says about the ski's or particularly the edges...They have to be trashed! What's the story in the rock run anyways? Is there usually tons of powder in there for pillows and it's unusually lacking in snow? I love @ 17:46 how you now can look back up and see EXACTLY where you just were! That's simply freakin' AMAZING! I WOULD take you up on the offer to trail you guys down if I were there!

Glad to see a ski video on youtube that actually has underground rock music as opposed to royalty free EDM or new age pablum.

Just found your vlogs and they‘re amazing! Crazy to see you so chill while hanging out on the edge while I am actually freaking out from only watching!

Just a day in the hood... MENTAL! Glad you're back Jacob!

guys are nuts, skiing on the edge among the rocks, well done

Can you buy a season ticket to the Midi or do you have to pay each time you go? Inspirational stuff, by the way. Makes my home mountain seem tiny in its way.

as someone who isnt comfortable on my skis on flat ground, seeing you skiing on the edge of a cliff is terrifying

This is insane. When u guys were on the rocky egde, almost got heart attack. U guys are super cool and great skiers. Thanks for the Video 😊

i was glued to the screeb for 19 min lol

I didn't know skiing could be so intense. Thanks guys.

Living my life through you until I can get back in the mountains. Serious vibes.

Awesome but absolutely nuts!

Paesaggi incredibili e sciate spettacolari!!! Mi fate sognare

The degree of casualness well these guys are skiing right next to cliffs and rocks is insane

Unbelievable shots Jacob. Chamonix is surreal.

jesus Christ, that mountain would have killed me 5 times before I hit the bottom

Unbelievable! Thanks for sharing this.

Nice footage! Great watching both this and Nikolai’s perspective! Keep it up!!

Why is this channel so underrated? That was one of the sickest skiing videos I have ever seen

That looks sooooooooooooo flippin sketch man! Sweet.

Through the video I’m just assessing “I could ski that, I couldn’t ski that ,I could ski that but I wouldn’t enjoy skiing that, I could ski that but my skis would hate me forever!” Conclusion? I’ll let you guys ski that. Great video! Stay safe!

Those extremely narrow, rocky access points you're going through are more dangerous than anything I'd ever try to "ski". Especially the one with all the cables you were crawling under. Certainly looks like the chutes in-between were a lot of fun though. In any event, mad respect to you guys for pulling this off!

I get anxiety getting off the ski lift.....

For a guy that doesn't ski and is terrified of heights this was fucking AWESOME!! Live it up you crazy kids!

Grymt Jacob! Så jäkla härligt att få lite fler filmer från dig! Fortsätt!! BIG up!!

The actually skiing looked very nice. The last section through the rocks I would have take a hall pass. I am a east coast skier so what I consider ice is different from a west coaster. Very nice and thanks for sharing, well done.

I was there some years ago, and looking down the couloir from the walkway I can tell you the thought that it would be a great place to ski did not enter my mind.

20 seconds in and my palms were sweating already haha

saw the steeps and had a feeling Nikolai had a hand in this. That man is insane

Skiing it looks so much easier than getting to it. So gripped just watching them negotiate those rocky, razor-edge drop-ins.

Thats impressive!! Giving me chills down my spine haha. Ill head back over to my blues and blacks thank ya very much😂 hit a double black one time and well, it took a while for me to get down hahaha. Ski on guys!

Loved the drone shots of you guys coming down. Just incredible to watch because I am not that brave. Lol

Did this a few years ago with the wife before kids. Amazing experience. The kids are now skiing. One day we’ll take them down it.

Chamonix is one of the coolest place to be in winter! No pun intended I took the gondola to the top, still the best experience I've ever had! After watching this, I feel I wanna go there again! Good vid ☺ merci!

I’d be the one turning around and getting back on the tram😋

Great video but why did you guys bring that snowboarder ? Just to have the feeling of someone wrecking the back of your skis in a lift line ?

Great skiing guys, enjoyed the video on that "Scared me $hitless Aguille run" with the sketchy entry. I have been down the Aguille many times but never on that run.

Wow that was awesome! If I could ski even half as good as you guys I’d be happy.

That's a lot of work and exposure for subpar snow. The views were amazing!

I love the shoots, fun skiing

Gives a whole new meaning to, living on the edge! Holy crud you guys are crazy

This looked amazing! I would love to do something like this one day.

Wow! Glad you guys are still alive!

I was there in 06, and a man, I kid you not, fell down from the narrow ledge that leads from the tunnel to the glacier. He was lucky to grab hold of a rope that had been put up the same day. His ski equipment fell 1000 m down and when we passed him after he had been pulled up, he was in a fetal position in shock.

Nice production quality. That was fun to watch but the only time I wasn't nervous was the exit couloir.

You guys are insane :) Awesome footage. My legs burning just from watching it. Sh***ng brick here in front of the telly !

WOW!!! we have come along way from Warren Miller days!!! That totally got my stomach on several areas of that mountain. DANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You guys actually lived and didn't die on that mountain. GOOD JOB and thank you for sharing that thrilling adventure with us.

Absolutely incredible!

Sitting at my desk, watching you guys on those spines, feeling my stomach in my throat and my legs turning to jello. Cool once you get to the couloir, but everything before that is a big cup of hell nope.

I skied this many time in 2002/03......and again in 2007 and 2009. The loss of snow and ice is remarkable. I remember that cable well..the entry was nothing like that....

This is absolutely bananas. Honestly next level stuff great work

You guys are absolutely mad. Incredible video.

Wow! JUST AMAZING!! You Guys ROCK!!! 😃

Wow nice job. Some of those exposers had me freaking out and I’m sitting on my couch! You are so casual there. You guy have crazy skills especially at the end skiing frontwards and backwards through the rock field.

I felt badass when I ran a green slope last week. This is insane.

The story telling is awesome!

Absolutely an amazing video, with the editing, felt I was there with you well done guys and stay safe 👍👏👏👏👏

How the hell do they build that gondola

holy shit thats insane dude! to think you bois are out here doing that and im barely able to do 180s off park jumps! thats crazy!
