      I mean it's pretty much impossible to have a substance stay the exact same in heat vs cold. There will always be a bit of warping going between extremes it's just the nature of our world.

    Corbett’s, for many skiers, is an Everest of sorts. I’ve done it thrice in my life and while it’s not that exceedingly difficult for expert skiers, it does require (for most) a methodical line, and a lot of confidence. You’re looking at anywhere between a 10-30 foot drop at any entry point. And really, once you get past that entry point, it’s pretty easy.
    With all that out of the way HOLY CRAP what an incredible run. Most people will stand at the edge, carefully planning their lines. I’ve never seen a person just launch themselves like that (even though I know a lot of planning went into making that jump). Very, very impressive!

    I started skiing in the mid 80s and we all watched Warren Miller ski movies and skied 206 cm boards. We hit the biggest stuff we could find at Grand Targhee, Jackson Hole, Snowbird, Alta, and the like. Then Greg Stump blew our minds with the Blizzard of Ahhhs and we saw ski heroes like Scot Schmidt, Glen Plake, and Mike Hattrup. Since then the equipment and the skiers just keep getting better. This stuff is insane - I love watching these guys ski. Rock on!

    When I first saw this a couple of years ago, I immediately recognized the location even before he clicked in. So, when he started towards Corbet's with speed, I got real interested. I figured he'd fake towards Corbet's, then at the last second make a huge GS turn to the right, spraying all the looky-loos standing around the entrance.
    But, when he stayed on his line and kept accelerating, I started to panic. My thought was maybe the dude's not local and doesn't know he's headed straight for a freaking cliff. But then I thought heck, it's a CZcams video. He's obviously not going anywhere near Corbet's because they can't show bloody mounds of quivering flesh on CZcams. What the heck am I watching? And Why Is He Not Slowing Down?! WHAT THE!!
    When he blew right past the entrance at that speed, and flew off the very cliff edge that tens of thousands of riders the world over have backed away from for decades, my insides felt like they fell out. I could NOT believe what I was seeing.
    Then he landed that impossible drop, AT SPEED, ON HARDPACK. It was clear to me this video was either CGI or someone had posted video of an alien's ski vacation to our planet.
    Whatever the truth, after more than 30 years of skiing, I've seen tons of amazing things ON and IN snow. But, nothing has blown my mind more than what Gallivan did here. Absolutely incredible.

      There are quite a few guys who hit corbets blind now. It's always roped off though so people won't accidentally do it. Can't say I ever did it. Dropping in is good enough and you can get up to a 40' drop depending on where you go. That is enough for me...

      What you need is a ton of speed, then it’s a piece of cake.

    My study shows that skiers and Leo Taillefers have a 75% chance of winning line of the winter.
    Sorry snowboarders

      "Leo Taillefers" lol xD but yea in general skiers just charge harder, loving when boarders go all out though!

      Isn't there just more skiers well that's the case in Australia so that would automatically give them a higher chance but could be different else where

    I would have worn my pole straps.

    • @heinzketchup3323
      @heinzketchup3323 Před 6 lety +1

      Obviously good to keep the poles with you, but I do know someone that broke his thumb because his pole got caught in a tree and the strap pulled his thumb back quite nastily, so I'd be careful having them on around trees...

    • @hoffer54
      @hoffer54 Před 6 lety

      I agree he looks like he's going around 70 mph (guessing) when he lands, One would not think ski poles attached would be a good idea.
