First Time on The Handrail at Kirkwood

I wasn't totally sure what to expect, or if I would chicken out, but I got myself to do the whole thing.

Not the most graceful but I consider living through it to be enough.

Chickening out at Once Is Enough Chute at Kirkwood. Anyone want to come with me and pressure me into doing it?

Having some fun around Saint Simons Island, Georgia on a Hobie Cat 16 despite a broken jib luff wire.

I ducked to clear a tree and temporarily forgot there was a camera on top of my helmet. Luckily, the camera had been aimed too far down anyway...

no... didn't have it............ got incredibly lucky..... might want to stick to single black d..................
lol there will always be haters. I'm very glad I did it and will certainly be back to do it again. You never get any better if you never try anything that you might fail on. 😂
LMAO
Holy Shit!
wow! That is one wild trail!
Gutsy.
Go back on a nice powder day and that line is yours all day long.
Wise man!
To the most stylish way to do it, but well done! I’d have done a bit worse. So… 👍😁
That was pretty spooky on a kinda firm day! Great job.
The only good thing about this decision was you were in the middle of a ski area where patrollers would eventually come and scoop you up.
What was behind you on left at end? Before the rock/ski kiss. Was it not fully covered? Still looked crazy vert but maybe less rock?
Yeah I could have maybe gone around those little rocks to the left, but it was pretty narrow between them and the drop-off. In hindsight I should have just straight-lined them and then continued right into the final drop. There's always next year!

I thought you were doomed when you slid out lol
And I thought once is enough was the scariest looking thing at Kirkwood
Cakewalk!
This was sick mate
Fuck yeah is right, nice
Why ski this and maybe ruin the bottoms?
Fun
A big part of skiing is pushing the limits of your comfort zone and skiing over things that push the limits of your abilities. If you never even risk falling or scratching up your equipment then what are you even doing with your life? Skis can tolerate a fair bit of scraping with no noticeable effects, and can be repaired easily with PTEX. I don't want to die without any scars and I wouldn't want that for my skis either :)
Because it's there........................................
Easy repairs and skis can take a lot more abuse than people think.
good shit
"So Aaron how'd you fuck up the bottom of your skis?" 😆😆
Yeah I should have just jumped those, but the drop right afterwards was pretty intimidating so I didn't want to just launch from the small drop direct to the big.
I have been skiing in Kirkwood for years and about 3 years ago I became aware of this feature but couldn't find it. Then I saw another dude here (Spam Daley) show it and caught a glimpse of where it might be. Last weekend I thought I spotted it from chair 2 and watching this I'm pretty sure it's the ridge between the 1 & 2 man chutes. This weekend I'll poke around there, what could go wrong...
@@zerapio It's actually a bit lower down than that, and slightly closer to the cirque. If you zoom in to the top of the path in this fatmap link (fatmap.com/routeid/17927/@38.6685768,-120.0560504,663.5029651,-14.4775190,-166.9569074,2620.0241916,satellite) you can see the actual handrail feature directly to the right of the line. It is very easy to miss. I went by the first couple of times and didn't ID it until I was too far past it. I got there by taking Hell's Delight until I got to the clearing where it cuts back into Thunder Saddle proper. Then if you go slightly skiers right, you'll see that large tuft of trees coming up with a clearing to skiers right. Go directly to the right of that group of trees and you will suddenly see it there. Once you find it you will know.
@@aaronhoy1664 thanks a lot for the map and description. From the map I think that's what I was trying to describe but incorrectly attributed it to two-man chute because I saw the sign for it but still haven't gone there.
By skiing the baddest line on the mountain, that how.
Right on, bro
Good choice! Only hit it when there’s freshies! I’ve hit it a few times it was way steeper with a 15-20’ drop in! The Woods sik.
Ass was definitely puckered lol
Aaron, first system that I've seen that does not require bending over for lifting ! Great idea. How much can you lift. It would be nice if we could see the underside better. Any plans ?
Better driver vs. better car. Always feels good to be the former.
