  • I skied each and every chairlift on Whistler and Blackcomb as fast as possible! It's mid-April and the Whistler conditions are better than they were in February.

    Good vid! You know when you film with the camera stick holding it in front and above you? You can adjust it on the fly to film yourself from behind and above by changing the grip: instead of having the long end of the stick coming out of the thumb side of your palm, it comes out at the pinkie end. It's like switching from holding ski pole as a sword to normal ski pole hold but pointed behind you and towards the sky.

  • @skippylegrandgourou2069

    Nice video man, I am from the French/Swiss Alps and i lived in BC for 7 years. It is so expensive to ski in Whistler $200 day and their chairlift are so outdated. I ski 3-4 times in Canada and 10-20 times in Europe per season. I pay 20-30 euros ($30-45 per day) in Savoie for a day pass, sometimes it is free or super cheap. Whistler is good for MTB but sadly this season Creekside is shut down.

    • @riseandalpine
      @riseandalpine  Před 2 lety

      A season/epic/edge card is the only reasonable option. Paying for a lift ticket is so ludicrous.
      I always hear Europeans commenting about the chairs... What makes the lifts so outdated? They are high speed quads not 2 seaters like most of the province. Do you guys have full service bars or something on those Euro chairs??
      Creekside shutdown is a bummer for MTB season, but it will greatly improve the flow on the Whistler side for next winter.

    • @sangodan3031
      @sangodan3031 Před rokem

      @riseandalpine can't comment for all of Europe, but skiing in Austria you have a few bubble (the restraining bar had a windshield basically) chairlifts, most being 6 or 8 seater for smaller queue lines, with a few even having heated seats and practically all lifts have piste maps. That may be what people mean by outdated for whistler lol

    • @riseandalpine
      @riseandalpine  Před 2 lety

      When you are carving hard it is actually better to drag/tap your poles. Watch some videos on ski racers and very good carving skiers and you'll see what I mean.
      Off-Piste pole planting is more integral. It's important to keep pole plants light because over planting can mess up the body position.
      So YES I believe in using poles all the time, but they have different applications depending on the terrain and ski style.
      Also - if I'm holing a selfie stick I never plant in order to keep the camera more stable for viewers.
