“how far can I push it and not make my mom scared”
proceeds to jump off cliff
Burnt Toast Funny! As a Mom that is exactly what I thought plus “Dang, Kai must have one adventurous Mom!”
Burnt Toast I would like it but it is at 420 likes
Burnt Toast that`s What happens when you call your kid kai
Yea lol
I was thinking his poor moms nerves lol
"How far can I push it and not make my mom scared?"
Proper motto right there
😂😀😂
Anon Ymous They told him exactly what I would have told him to say to the camera lol
just don't show mom the video!
The father must be slightly crazy
😂😂so true
Whenever someone’s name is Kai they’re always a pro at something
Yep my sister is on the u.s ski team for moguls
Thanks and also i am a state champ in tennis
Robert Leetch idk why but facto bruv
yeah sickest beyblader to ever let it rip
My freinds name is kai and he is depressed and not good at anything
You know he is good when he has long hair and wears a hat.
Hibbs that is surfers
I have long hair and I wear a hat and I ski and I can do a 180 but... that’s the extent of my skiing
I have long hair and wear a hat and im a pretty good hockey goalie
I see that u like NF me too😁
@@akaeko3040 NF?
“how far can I push it and not make my mom scared” - that ship has sailed. wow, what an inspiration.
The quote I live by
Extremely telling quote - he's not scared *at all*, is what I got from that quote.
“How far can I push it and not make my mom scared”....been saying that for for 32 years
Should be a motto for everyone in their life *ponders*

Everything about this is perfect. The skiing, the filming, the music.

You must be thinking of Kai Petersen who is 28 now...?
Hunter, I gotchu
Ehem...
r/woooosh
@@OMGItzKontrol xd
When you think youre doing alright at life and then see this kid come along and realise he is gonna be sponsored by redbull at your age and live in a mansion.
money didnt hurt his progress
There is no money in skiing
It’s Mongoose say that to Jon olsson
@@henrymaynard3543 If you go to the Winter Olympics you will earn a lot actually.
Bogdan Dobre you get no money from the olympics only exposure. What event would he compete in anyway?
Look forward to seeing you in the Winter Olympics, Kai. You go boy! How courageously wonderful.
First they gotta make off-piste powder stomping an Olympic event. Maybe it'll be an X-games event by the time he's an adult but realistically I think we're looking at a ski porn career. Which for powder bums is better than the Olympics anyway. Olympics is all hardpack and rules.
He does big mountain stuff he’d be better in freeride world tour
I've seen him ski lately, im telling you, the kid is a phenom now.
This kid blows my mind and opens my heart! It just shows us what we can do if we try. Thanks Kai.
imagine what he is going to turn into when he is like 18.

This sport is sooo amazing . I wish I had snow where I live so I could practice for months . The last time I went skiing I couldn't go 10 min without falling on my ass and embarrassing myself haha
My first time I went to Ski, I fell down like 3 times in my first day. Also where I love there is no snow, but I went to Andorra my first time
Hugo, how do you think everybody learns? Even pros fall, if they say otherwise, they lie. I started when I was 4 (am 34), and felt twice whithin 10 days a month ago. So don't feel embarassed 😊! 🍺cheers bro.
dont stress about it man even i fall and i have more than 5 years of experience everyone does it is part of the sport just be shure to wear a helmet and optionally other protective gear like for your back and you are fine as long as you dont whipe out over a cliff or while going 100 mph
23M this year was my first season of snowboarding. First day out I fell probably 30 times 🤣🤣💀. I had a blast -- fall as many times as it takes to get good!
If you’re not falling you are not pushing your limits. That’s where the fun is!!!

cool then i am a pro aswell lol
Someone get this kid a grilled cheese.
The Snow Report nah someone get him a shot of whiskey
haha
@KING_Maverick 138 sorry kid that one is pg 13 xDDD
The Snow Report this is so sad.
You should be 21 days of age to order or are they on drugs
Future so bright I need to wear shades

How my grandpa went to school
Learning to ski at Jackson Hole every year growing up was one of the best experiences of my childhood, and shaped me into what I became. It’s still my favorite mountain in the world. Kudos to this kid for the extreme level to skill he has already achieved, truly amazing.
I was thinking "I can do that" but then he ordered a grilled cheese
Nate Veltman lmao😂😂
😂😂
😂😂
Ikr nearly passed out when I saw that
Lmao
This is what happens when parent(s) let kid(s) pursue their dreams ⛷️
Cool Designer
Let your baby birds fly
Cool Designer Oof my mum didn’t give me a choice to ski...she made me do it until I could to a flip off a hill on the terrain parks after that I switched to snowboarding
It also helps when the parent co-founded one of the biggest action sport media companies in North America.
And pay for it
Lol couldn’t be my parents-
Not only does this kid got guts, but technically he is a great skier. He has been well trained! Have a blast kid. We'll all hear about you in some skiing capacity in years to come.
So cool that dudes who cane before him show him the love to rip along with them. That is where it is at. He learns how to close the best lines and read the drops. I hope this kid get to pursue his dream and will inspire another kid when he is 28 and that kid is 11.
I thought “huh I could probably do that”
Until he whipped out a 20 foot backflip
1000 subs with one video? 😂
Exactly my thought process lmao puts into perspective how insane the stuff he’s riding down is, the camera makes it looks so much simpler.
Same for me
Yeahs
Bro same i Can only do 180 off jumps
There's something special about Kai... He is not your average 11 year old... the way he presents himself, the stoke he has, his passion for not only skiing but the outdoors, and everything else in between makes him the kind of kid that only comes around once in a blue moon. Having parents like he has and having Jackson Hole be your playground must be a dream. Keep shredding kid! Hope to see you around Jackson someday #jhdreaming
nice insight although it may be my imagination but i think kids like this are popping out more these days
Yeah and the privilege he's obviously grown up with that 99 percent of kids don't get.
*You won’t believe what this 11 year old can do*

Me: Clicks off the video
Shoutout to the goat Elizabeth Swaney for showing me this comment 🔥🔥🔥
Its disgusting how bad the Americans rating system is...
THE VIDEO IS GREAT
“How far can I push it before my mom gets to scared”. 2:38
AHAH I KNOW RIGHT
Im watching this like :
“Bro, i hope he wont end up dead uder an avalanche”
Milk Skateboarding sorry I am from a Europe, thanks tho.
Milk Skateboarding sorry I am from a Europe, thanks tho.
It’s too bad but you probably will read about this kid and his early demise. When you push the limits you will find it.i hope it never happens
Just Edits every professional skier knows that you just gotta start swimming
@@dredbud9272 yeah. To let your kid ski off the side of mountains, you need parenting skills.
Great intro, great kid, great skills!

“How far can I push it and not make my mom scared”
I think about that ever day
I thought I was good a skiing. Until a I saw this
Same lol
I’m mean I could do a lot of that but the backflips from that high. my ski hill is whistler blacomb and I have done Ruby’s Boul
Right??!!
Alastair H really whistler is fun I do grouse in a race team the problem we face tho is the lack of cliffs and good natural jumps
Same
its awesome to see someone so young be not only a super good skier and have super good style but to be so mature and composed while skiing such big lines while still just having fun and enjoying it.
Go look henry sildaru
@@VilleIiro yeah henry is super good, ive been watching his skiing ever since his sister first came onto the scene. theres just something different about kai. he makes skiing look incredibly fun which isn't always the case with some of the best athletes
I learned how to ski at Jackson hole 2 years ago, and it was the best experience ever. The staff was really nice, and we did a great job skiing for our first time(me and my sister). The runs are perfect for beginners, but there are also some crazy ones out there for intermediate and expert. Jackson hole is probably the best ski resort ever, only second to Big Sky Montana(which I’ve been to)
Amazing, Kai ! What a great skier you are. Keep it up and cheers to you.
Bruh he keeps falling from like 30 feet and he don't break his legs
He is landing on an extremely steep downhill slope, which takes most of the force of landing and absorbs it. If he were to land on a flat surface, say goodbye to walking for a year.
When you ski your legs are kinda like suspension like a car. The snow does help but you notice every time he jumps his legs kinda absorb and he is ridding downhill and you see himself bend his legs that helps with the impact.
Thats not a problem as long as the snow is fresh, deep and it's steep enough.
A barly good comparsion:
It's like in Hill Climb Racing App (a mobile game), you need a good angle and steepness, then you can use the force to progress further instead of destroying your vehicle (or in this case your legs ;) ).
You can trust me with this one, as I'm skiing myself since I was a toddler.
Landing on snow on a steep incline will do that. I landed on a rock when I did it. One plate and 13 screws later my tibia is good as new!
It's easy
When he said “how far can I push it and not make my mom scared” I was like not very far
Depends on the mom. Some moms are totally fine with their kids pushing the envelope in different sports/environments, and get more used to it when they see / experience those sports or environments.
Hybby z don’t get to technical. She probably is ok with her son jumping off cliff. But generally mothers are a bit protective.
John Malloy his name isn’t Alex Honnold. If you don’t know who he is look up free solo on CZcams. That would scare almost anyone with a functioning brain
Hybby z you're are that one nerd in school who always must be right and let's everyone know they're wrong
Moral of the story:
Let the kid have his grilled cheese.
🤣
Love this! I kept saying WOW throughout the video
Kal..you have great talent ! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE be gentle , as much as you can on stressing your knee joints. Your young and your growth plates are still growing in your legs and repeated hard compressions can interfere with bone growth, Don't want to having problems in 5 years from stress abuse . You gotta ski ..but Go easy on joint impacts . Keep in the back of your head you want to excell and be the best you can . Just don't know blow it on hard landings . Thanks
as a physiotherapist, i fully agree
ok mom
@@Sipover Hey STUPID RYAN...YOU DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT A GROWTH PLATE IS , IN A BONE . SO STFU ! YOUNG SKIERS , NOT YOU OF COURSE , CAN DAMAGE OR CRACK THEIR GROWING GROWTH PLATES AND END A POTENTIALLY GREAT CAREER !
Ok you know he is not going to read this
@@ulhasbhatt5682 Your right..but I bet his parents read every comment .
Amazing talent. What a perfect kinesthetic sense he has. Wish I could have begun skiing at that age instead of 30.
But what the heck, I've had so much fun XC ski racing that I'm happy with what I did.
Haha it's not often I see fellow xc ski racers on the internet!
Bro every start of the new season I go back and watch this to get me hyped
.
.

Same thing this year
Kai, love watching you fly brother. Want a long career? Focus on what you're doing from May until November, that is how you last a long time. Dont forget to file your flight plan!
the best statement ever: how far I can push it that my mom is not scared!!! I love it and than this rock jump
4:49 *GoPro and Red Bull wants to know your location*
That’s why I love living in Wyoming
69 likes.... nice
LOOL IM DEAD
lol now he’s sponsored by both of them
Kai you are my new hero. Never stop! You will be the#1 free skier in the world in no time.
I am 11 right now and I was researching for the next season and I felt good when I could ski a double black and when Kai jumps off a cliff!
This kid has a more promising career in skiing than acting that's for sure haha
Skiing is a hard future
Why do you have to be such a pap smear?
His acting is actually hilarious though lol
I think your name is my reply to this....
ahh why you gotta do him like that lmfao
There is a really nice sensation from when you do skiing that you can’t see in videos or photos you can only truelly feel it when you are there
its called adrenaline, and its the best drug on the market............YEEE HA
ive watched this every time it comes up in my feed and it amazes me every time
This young boy is going to go places....Big Places!! Keep up the awesomeness! I hope we all see you in the Olympics!! Keep flying!
The 295 dislikes are snowboarders who can’t do greens
Worst part about skiing...telling your parents your gay

😂😂 they break bones on blues if they attempt 😂
@@kevindonlon5509 the worst part about boarding is..... Oh wait the damn thing lol

Well. I can do pizza. So..
And the spaghetti! I remember when i had ski lessons and i couldn't speak German or English neither did the other kids so the guy always called the moves Spaghetti and Pizza!
Great times!❤

Dude, as a 26 year old, I'm super jealous/stoked about this guy hitting slopes and powder at the level that I wish I could be at. Awesome, to see him taking on some gnarly terrain and go after it. Keep at it bro!
Amazing, what a talented boy! You will be world champion one day for sure! And am glad that I also live around Teton.
Impressive, but I can do that in my dreams.
Doubt that
Yyeesss
I still can't do that in my dreams
Poosker Wolf bruh he doesn’t mean I can do that in my sleep like bragging, he means I can do that kind of stuff in his head while he sleeps
Evan D. I can do that which my eyes closed
awesome! if the camera stayed far enough away any real skier would say that was a 20 year veteran of the sport. Kid's got it for sure.
Jackson looks amazing!
Good for you little man!!!! Your awesome!!!!! God bless you!!!
He: Skiing off a mountain.
Me: Closes the refridgerator closely to see when the lights go out...

Sebastian Nam I’ve looked, but it doesn’t seem like it has one... But now i know a little more XD

First of all fuck u stolen comment second, him
I do the same thing 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣
WE DO NOT SAY BAD WORD
He seems to have such a great personality, he'll go super far with that.
That was some epic powder and cliff skiing...takes me back 40 years to the cornices at Squaw, Alpine and Mammoth! Get it Kai!
Fearless. Love it. Follow your dreams.
Dude I love skiing and I have always wanted to go to jackson hole, now i want to go with this kid
Awesome!!! Future Olympic champion right there !!
Fantasies to see those mountains and amazing snow. The sking and filming is epic too......dreaming bigger now 💕
I'm not sure I've ever been impressed more by a young skier. This kid is amazing. Ballz!
I think this kid will one day make an amazing Olympian!
Hes not a racer and hes not a park rider.....so no
Dude you're amazing! Very Inspiring!
It’s always incredible to see these kids, I had a 10 year old who was pulling huge gaps, roosting every corner, sending jumps deep or to even flat, and not to forget the huge whips.
I'm teaching my son(9 y/o) skiing and he finally found something he really likes to do(besides games of flat devices ugh) and I'm gonna show him this video. Thanks you are awesome!
Siiiiiiiiiick! What a badass! I love the intro.
I think that this kid is blessed to have real passion at a young age. Prodigies are just like adults that are masters at something. It just takes determination and the will to constantly improve and reach the unreachable. Child prodigies are special because they find this at an age we wish we all had. The sad thing is some adults never do. Just remember it's never too late to do your best. That's why it's called *your* best. ;)
I just skied in whitefish Montana for the first time in 25 years!!! Kai does the sport and the world proud!! Stomp on Kai!!!!
That is amazing. I've always wished I could go skiing more often. One day I will live there and skip all the time!
hurry up bro, global warming is COMING TO KILL THE SNOW
Outstanding talent love it!😋
This has been in my recommended since it was posted and I never watched it bc I snowboard, but I finally watched it and this kids dope

Thank you for this video!
I laughed when the ski patrol just said “sUrE” and moved the rope😂
I’m a ski racer my-self, the rush is insane!
I really really love skiing I go skiing 2 times every year, I started skiing when I was 3 but now I’m 10. Too bad that where I live doesn’t snow, and because of the pandemic this year I don’t get to go....I miss snow ❄️
You killin it yo...stay in the groove
He is so good god bless everyone
After watching that ... no words
Way to go kid! Super impressive
Wow, wow, wow! I’m speechless .
Dang I’m jealous of that powder and that looks like some epic skiing
I’m an 11 year old racer and this kid is amazing...
William Hobson 15 professional ski racer you in Canada as well I do grouse normally

I’m in the exact same boat as you :(, or have you gotten better? I stink at skiing 😂, I can barely even parallel ski and I get so scared to go down the blue slopes :(
Amazing
Amazing to watch !! Also amazing that an avalanche didn't happen while he was skiing .
I HAD SKIED A FEW TIMES AND IT FEELS SO GOOD
You passed the mom scared moment long ago! I’m holding my breath!!
