I love all the comments that bash side slipping 😂 however, I would be willing to bet that none of those people could actually ski that run anyway. Most that even venture there do the best that they can. It is survival, but we all want to do some turns. First thing I thought was thanks for pushing all the snow down the hill, but then I realized how steep and narrow it is. Been there, done that. Nice job all four of you for trying.😎

I was there last week and I am not sure if I skied chute 2 or 3. The one I did was really narrow and had trees to either side. Probably about only 8 feet across from one side to the other so I’m thinking it was two but does anyone know if that is 2 or 3?

i skiied chute 2 on wednesday and the snow wasn't this good. had been searching for a clip that someone may have taken with footage as nice as this vid. i only found one where a guy talks to someone dropping in, turns to the left and gives solid advice to drop in from the ledge on the left and head to the right. as he does that, the first dude wipes out and skids to the bottom 🤣 then he says "Yesss!... I hope he's ok" haha... i think you captured the extreme nature of the chutes really well. nicely done! Your comment about survival skiing is spot on. i was calling it more billygoating than skiing until you drop in and ski it out. beautiful back there.

I grew up racing at Taos, skied about 5 days a week sometimes, always at least 3. And, in those days, I was skiing ‘chutes’ … narrow and steeper than this one… on 204 cm skis. My other skis were 212 and 220, for giant slalom and downhill. 204’s were for slalom.

Nice area but next time point them down and go for it

Super gapers. Watchout for that oh wait steamboat is called flatboat for a reason. Try telemarking you tools

"Droppin'" lame! Hike out and give buddy a slap. IYKYK.

These guys on hill, 1 pm: “this is crazy, unskiable, survival mode only..” Same guys at bar in lodge 4 pm (loudly): “we totally crushed the chutes today bro”.

I definitely wouldn’t post this

This is hard to watch. Side slipping is not really skiing.

Does it make any sense ?

It’s the most gnarly run there in my eyes

Snow squeegee

That would only be "survival skiing" if the snow wasn't good! :)

Id be rippin the shit out of yhat lol. Hop turn hop turn double. Blue square.

Probably the most unnecessary 'dropping' call of all time

Steamboat and extreme shouldn’t be used in the same sentence

You posted that? come on rip a real run instead of pushing all the good snow off leaving a mess for real skiers

You got enough bad comments, I won’t leave one. Maybe post videos after you guys can ski

When you go on trails that you have no business on. What really is bs is when you are coming down these trails and you run into people like this.

Wonderful! A video of 3 or 4 idiots who don't know how to ski; and on a slope they have no business being on.

“I can’t even ski this, really” “I know thats the first turn I Got”. Jerry’s like you ruin the mountain. If you have to slide down like a heelside stuck snowboarder, you need to learn to proficiently ski easier pitches before being “extreme”. Smh!

if you really want the snow and the turns, you have to go outside the boundary/under the ropes. In some places in the US you are not allowed to but in Canada you sign a waiver before going up, saying that the resort takes no responsibility for your safety, including your potential death (true)..and you can go anywhere you want..

Wearing a Go-Pro on your helmet is like wearing white socks and an Armani suit.

Bro you ski like my old ass dad 😂😂😂

Ski much ?

The next trail was a groomer

Looks like amazing snow. Great day to start practicing jump turns

gnarly...

Bro single handedly nust wrecked that whole run for everyone else for the rest of the day 😂☠️😂☠️😂

what is she skiing on? 120's? snowplowing the chute send her back to the kitchen

So you're not really skiing you're surviving.

Send it

that looks fun

looks very tricky. In those conditions it is a great time to let it go as a fall will be OK. Also, learn a jump turn. It will make those tight chutes skiable and it gives you a split second, while in the air, to "plan" your next move.

Lovely scenery, and I guess there is a certain sort of, um, plucky go-for-it attitude here, but honestly, this terrain is WAY beyond your skiing ability. It's dangerous to you, and in the meantime you're just ruining the terrain for skiers who have the ability to actually ski this.

These are the type of people who after skiing and a couple beers in the bar will be proclaiming a little too loud "we did chute 3 and it was awesome", you can't claim you did it when you side slip most of it.

Jeez, you're sluffing off all the fluff! All that sideslipping ruins it for everyone who follows...

How to ruin juicy pow...

Learn to ski first and then go to such a slope, not a single correct swing. safet first !

Thanks for posting that. That felt very realistic. I know that feeling when you’re right on the edge. I definitely felt the adrenaline. You don’t need to see somebody flying off a cliff to get that. I enjoyed this more than watching some pro who did stuff like this all the time. Thanks.

Not for anything but that doesn't look like fun at all ....

Please!

I skiied this and thought I was going to die fun times haha. I love the Christmas tree bowl though if you go to the right of the sign there's a super fun wood run.

So lucky to find the gap between the tree and rock. Watch it frame by frame around 6:20 to appreciate how badly this could have ended

Don't listen to the comments that tell you you're not good at the Chutes. I did this when I was 13, a good skier, and I even struggled with this. It's a lot steeper in person and really hurts the knees. Going fast on this is not an option.

when is this filmed?

Survival skiing... only because the participants have not bothered to learn to a sufficient level of technical ability before going off piste and into tight areas that are marginally steep..... get a few full ski seasons of lessons and coaching and this is not going to be survival.

Куда их понесло???

Looks like infinite fun!
