I've been up there in summer and I almost got a heart attack when I looked down at the edge. And a double WOW that you actually climbed it up. Respect!
This series is awesome showing things about finland i never knew. Im from Finland and i never thought there were colouirs. I just recently skied my first colouir with my dad and twin brother, it was so fun. I was also thinking about making a similar video about skiing colouirs. Thank you for the inspiration so much!
Great series, enjoying every episode. The second one looked like hard work and must admit i laughed when you were honestly describing the snow near the bottom. F F F
Great question. Personally I don't see that I was risking my life at any point on the icy couloir. It all comes down to understanding the conditions and your own abilities. Also the grade of slope plays a huge part. For example, on a slope with big exposure I would not have made the decision to ride but on this case the slope and conditions were manageable to do it the way I did it. By going faster I would have put myself and my crew in much bigger danger so I appreciate your question and thoughts because it is very valid point you are making. Thanks for taking your time to share your thoughts.
Awesome series! Great locations and riding. Very inspirational! Could you tell me which crampons are you using? Are These the Grivel Air Tech wide or the G10 wide? Thanks
Yeah, so when there is a chance of ice in the line I always take ice axe just in case if something were to go wrong. Then I would at least have maybe a possibilty to stop myself slipping down the face
Yes I believe that it is extremely difficult to find mountains with multiple couloirs since there is no mountains in Finland at all, too low to be mountain :-)
