Best Poached Eastern Skiing Tree Run 2019 - Busted on Undercut
Vložit

- Watch a raw un-edited vid as we rip a closed tree-run (Undercut) on a pow-pow day, then get fully busted for it by the ski patrol. It's a little long, but worth the wait. Hilarious lecture and consequences enforced by the SP at the end of the tree-run. In the end, and despite the consequences, we just keep on skiing. Karma balancing out for behaving ourselves during the lecture?
“We’re gonna skeeh aroun until they throw us off the mahtin” you guys are the best😂
LOL east coast patrollers. We had one guy that would always "clip" our day passes by writing on them with sharpie. You could just lick your finger and rub the ink right off!
LOVE IT! these guys are Legends! thanks for the stoke!!! ride on!!!
Rule # 1 when poaching closed trails is to not funnel back to the trail. Stay in the woods for 20 minutes.
Great effort on a pair of carvers, lot of energy keeping those tips up.
For east coast, that could be the best conditions of the season.
If we even got that
Are you retarded, have you ever been up north? Vermonts legit the snowiest state in the entire country by a good amount anually
@@joemicheal1314 Either you are joking with me or I am retarded. Maybe a little of both.
@@joemicheal1314 Don’t be a dick on the internet. We don’t need more of those
Zero reason for that trail to be closed.
Early season I ski out on just a thin layer of patchy snow, through grass and dirt. And they closed that powdery run. FFS.
Try taking a sled down that trail when someone hits a snag, root, or branch just under the snow.
These kinds of guys are the best kinds of guys to be on a lift with.
Shoulda taken break. Skied 90 degrees into trees and laid down for over and hour. They woulda had patrolman ski down tree looking for em and waiting then got bored and left.. patience is key.
'laid down for over an hour' lmao this ladies evaded patrol before 😂
I don’t fancy freezing to death
@@oLiVeR-ut9qi In an hour?!! Maybe if I stay there for a day or two I’d get frostbite in my toes.

In Europe you can go off piste all you like, but it's at your risk and if you get hurt, you better have a plan on how to get help. People get helicoptered off the mountain quite often. You have to get special insurance to cover you for off piste skiing due to the increased risk. It's hilarious that in the US it's a "serious" offence in a ski resort.
Only on the east coast
Same in New Zealand the mountains are considered public land, therefore no limits on access on public lands, the ski lift operators pay a lease to operate on public lands and can’t control where you go either
Even further north in the United States, and pretty much all of the west coast never give you shit for going into the woods, they just have policies that they aren't responsible for any accidents or injuries you may get, and if you need to be rescued off piste then you could be on the hook for paying for it. Only the far East Coast of the US have resorts that are universally known for not allowing tree skiing of any kind, and taking passes for the slightest transgression off their marked groomers... I've even had my pass pulled out here for going 5 feet off the trail in order to jump the berm back onto it like you always see people doing. I also lost my pass before for cutting between literally 3 trees to get from one groomer to another that were separated by less than 50 feet. You can go deeper into WV and find some resorts like Snowshoe that allow glade skiing, or go far enough north to hit Maine and Vermont where its basically the same as the West coast and nobody gives a shit as long as you don't sue after you go off the trail and get hurt. Just like you said, it's the most ridiculous rule ever, and as someone who loves tree skiing more than anything but lives on the East Coast, it's torture sometimes. You don't know the meaning of the word "patronizing" until you've had an East Coast ski patroller with 5 years of experience try to lecture you on how they are saving your life by not allowing you to do something as dangerous as skiing off the trail when you've spent 20 years doing exactly that in places where the ski patrol don't act like the fucking Gestapo
Breaking state laws😂 patrollers are wannabe super troopers
Shoulda hauled ass away from them and hid for a while lol that run looked like it had plenty of smow on it to ski.
I’d love to skip a day of work for a powder day at Loon Mountain! Conditions look awesome!
These guys seem awesome! Good on ya!
A pocket full of season passes? I thought you were just happy to see me 😉
From your newest subscriber.
Happy New Year 🎆
Wow nice!!! a few vicarious turns there
Go to Cannon. Cut across the top over to Mitersil. That's a hoot!!
It has been mentioned that these glades will be thinned and turned into a trail with snowmaking as part of the next round of South Peak improvements.
That's the best condition I've ever seen Undercut in. I don't understand why they close glades when they're fresh powder. Loon was where I learned to snowboard, and i still hit it up at least once a year, but with the new expansion to South Peak the ticket prices are just absurd. That combined with the fact that it's like skiing through a shopping mall means that this might be the first year since I was a kid that I don't go to Loon.
ABSOLUTE LEGEND
I love that you posted that. That’s an area I wouldn’t pay to ski.
I wish I could ski or ride that well looks fun. I have tried to ski the trees but it went very poorly....every time.
still baffles me that so many places don't let you do this. i do it consistently, and legally, whenever i go skiing in europe
Loon ski patrol is the most outskiable ski patrol in the east.
I had a question. If you get your season pass taken. Can you get another for free in a little bit like a suspension? Or do you have to spend another 500 dollars on a new one? Just for a little offense like that?
Absolute legends
In canada theres marked runs that are glades and they are much steeper than that. thats some BS right there
Not sure why their passes were pulled for skiing in the trees. I live in Washington and we have a ski hill just 12 miles from the house. We ski that type of terrain all the time. Can anyone tell me why it would be closed. Looked pretty fun to me.
Ski patrol said there were rocks and not enough snow cover. I’ve seen season passes be pulled for riding too fast. Pretty sure some places make you take a class before they give you your pass back...
@@Ziggysdankgenetics Ok so there were rocks. When skiing off run I believe it is up to the individual skier to decide if it is worth the risk or not. Here in the West for the most part we don’t have ski patrol threatening to pull our pass if we are in an area off piste unless it is closed. At my local area that off piste area would not be closed. Can’t remember where this video was made but it seems to me it is more restrictive to where you can ski than what I am use to.

Buckhouse even made the Denver7 news...this is in Colorado where I ride as well.
Their tickets were clipped because they ducked a rope.
Also what glades were those?! Where on south peak?
Yup.
Loon ski patrol is the
Worst! They are so rude! Nothing better to do then take peoples passes when they only did one run trying to have fun. They are so miserable and hate their job so much they have to ruin the customers time spending an arm and a leg to go this hill.
At 6:02 notice how the patrol guy already has the scissors out, before it was even announced that they'd be losing their passes for the day.
absolute powder hounds
I do not like that crunchy snow sound when I am in trees! It means I am working twice as hard as I wanted to on this run.
" i got a pocket fullo pocket fullo season passes"
And my homeboys do too
I never understand this I have yet to ski in the states but france, Canada and Germany never had it were you were stopped for going offpiste
Seeing this, being from europe. Why tf is there a thing as piste patrol???
Skinny skis and not great conditions. Good job
Did they pull your day pass because you got smacked in the face by too many branches?
Pretty old ski patrolmen
It is called the "undercut glade." Loon really sucks with this stuff. They wait forever to drop the ropes. LAAAAAAAAAMMMEEEEE!
I don't understand what just happened. What were those passes they clipped? I thought those were Day passes they cut off and the two skiers were supposed to leave the mountain... but they got back on the ski lift.. I'm so confused lol
They got their ski passes clipped. The passes are what the loft chair attends check to make sure you have paid for the day. There is always a date on them. Some lift attendants don’t even check the tickets. That’s why a lot of resorts have gone digital.
Also, this lift could have been a mid mountain lift. As in, there’s no exit from this lift. Got to up, to go back down.
Last thing, if you do get your ticket pulled, you are allowed to ski the mountain to get back to your vehicle. Some players are huge and it takes riding a few lifts to get from one side to the other.
Why was it closed
It’s against the law to Duck the rope. Imagine letting being ski patrol go to your head 🤣🤣🤡😂
your supposed to poach on your last run of the day with a day pass...
Boohoo Loon!! Let the real skiers take the lines they paid to shred🤙
What a bunch of rubbish. Patrol needs to take out the giant poles stuck up their arseholes. That was a perfectly skiable run, should never being roped off. I bet they charged you full lift ticket price, so you should be able to ski any run you want. Ropes like these are also just a guidance for noobs, never a hard rule for everyone. And big thumbs up to that cool lifty girl!! I'd buy her a drink.
I was wondering where his poles where
tf are yall ski-resorts on, never ever heard of "closed" slopes or backslopes, only if there isnt enough snow, but you can still litterally go. Yall never gonna catch me in NA, ill be in st anton riding where ever the fuck i want lmao
This is Loon yea?
Closed for what
So SP can keep the powder for themselves!
Rookie poaching mistakes…you could have been in and out of those woods with nobody knowing if you had played it a little smarter!
That’s why I buy day pssses
Lol nice run I lie to ski to
Never been caught. Im a runner
When he was going through the woods was he hitting ice or was it rocks that you could hear his skis going a crossed. And where is this
never been to a ski resort that can fine you for going on closed trails. all of the resorts around here are on forest service land, so the signs are just suggestions.
ski patrol are the biggest karens in the world
A lot of wacks in the head with those branches, any scars like a pirate or something
I've been skiing/snowboarding on RTE.93 in NH my whole life and I can say from firsthand experience FUCK LOON MT SKI PATROL.
Ain’t nothing wrong with chasing the pow
future me 😂
American ski resorts don't seem like a lot of fun.
Just in the East a little and especially MidWest, Minnesota only has one resort that even has tree runs, mostly due to cheap insurance policies. Out in the real mountains of the West this really doesn't ever happen.
I’ve skied all over North America. Except the East coast. Have NEVER experienced this BS. What is the point? Obviously no avy potential.
@@mrsmartypants_1 The patrolman said something about it needing another storm or two, and the skiers replied something along the lines of it being a little rocky. Perhaps it's to keep rental skiers from getting core strikes? It seems that this place does actually have designated tree runs and this would be one of them. It could be just the fact that if the trail isn't open it isn't being patrolled so no one would know if they get hurt. It's most likely just the resort covering their asses and reducing the likelihood of being sued. This is a common worry of smaller hills filled with less experienced skiers, and those who do know what they are doing pay the price as well unfortunately. I don't agree with it, but as a skier reduced to the 200ft hills of river valleys I see it quite a bit. Some patrolmen don't care but its really a crapshoot on whether you get a sub-par tree run, or get your pass taken away.
@@jwj8201 Thanks. Makes sense. I’ve never considered the ski rental POV. I did notice rocks sticking out and that the skier did slide over one or two which caused me to wince.
@@mrsmartypants_1 Yeah, you would think with all the arborism that goes into making beginner resort tree runs there would be some rock-picking involved.
They really tried really, really double promise tried. Uh...huh!!!
Wait... You're not allowed to just ski where ever in the land of the free?
Wow. I grew up skiing at loon. My uncle was the director of ski patrol there for some years. Never seen them before. They knew it was wrong, guy tried to justify it to himself. "We have too" You don't. Ski Patrols job is to keep you safe. They should be giving warnings that was just sad
Man I wish they gave them fines lol.
ur a fucking loser
The Land of the free wtf
America. This is not a problem in Europe.
Remind me never to hit Loon. These guys love their fake power a little too much.

Ski patrol on the east coast is the biggest joke
Ski patrol are such dorks
Thats crazy they take your passes off you, I think I will never want to ski in the USA and will stick to France, way more fun and you can ski anywhere with no ski police stopping you doing what skiing is made for.
I ski on Mt. Hood in Oregon. You can pretty much go anywhere you like without trouble. I've heard stories of power tripping patrollers at Meadows but I've never experienced it myself. All the patrollers I have interacted with have been cool and are more interested in educating skiers rather than punishing them. It's also usually true that a roped off section is because of serious avalanche danger or snow too deep to ride safely. Weekend skiers often aren't aware of dangers like tree wells and terrain traps. Both of which are abundant on the PACNW volcanoes.
I like how people always say "we have to do it" you dont have to do shit. Give people a warning then pull passes if they do it again. This pulling passes on 1st offense is bullshit
old scrooge
american ski patrol is so wack
only in the east
@@charliewhipple4461 yeah, west looks good tbh
Its a superiority complex
Yeah these videos always seemed so weird to me coming from whistler. Here you can ski literally anywhere if the chair is open.
@@charliewhipple4461 I had something similar happen to me at Big White in the west. Skied all day a powdery "roped off" run (it's a whole large area of runs), with a buncha other people. Then end of the day a focking patrol guy shows up at the bottom of the run, like these 2 focks did. Good thing it was end of the day and I was done skiing anyway. In retrospect I should have just walked away to my car and not even waste time talking to that patrol shmuck. They ain't cops, they can't do shyte...and cops have real criminals to catch, or just sit and eat donuts.
why is this not allowed in america? in norway its illigal to restrict people who want to enjoy nature, public or private dont matter..
Skiing the trees is allowed, but these areas are assessed by ski patrollers, who are responsible for mountain safety (not just picking up injured bodies to sled them down the hill to first aid). They ski runs before the mountain opens each morning. If they deem any unsafe, they’re closed for the day. These patrollers said the tree run needed more snow - maybe some rocks or shrubs still poking through.
@@heather2655 yea thats where we differ i guess, in norway everyone is responsible for safety... ski patrol do the same here sort of, but they put warning signs, and any fence they put is to catch you if you fall.
Typical Boston talkuhs
Please tell me that a US state did not waist time and money regulating skiing in their state. Like when is enough, enough on the freaking unnecessary laws and regulations.
If it does exist what is it called? I need to go read this bs.
I went ahead and looked it up. Most states have some guidelines or basic rules, but they all have to do with lawsuits at a worst from what I can see. This 2000 dollar fine is completely made up by what I can see, which is good.
ski partol need to sit down and re think before taking passes fr. if they think this is serious offence lol
Why is there so many rules with American skiing? Ever heard of off piste?? Ski Europe or don’t ski at all. I’d have just ran off
because Americans are basically owned by insurance companies and these are stogies that enforce the stupid rules.
@@robbanks4356 true, it’s always I’ll sue you this, I’ll sue you that😂 country built on entitlement and karens
Lawyers and law suits
True, but in Europe you also pay for ski patrol to take you out in a sled or chopper. They accept many credit cards.
@@adamaziz4903 UK is free, everywhere else your insurance should cover it if you pick a good one.
Won't be any snow in 20 years and you have to deal with these jokers? A lot of US resorts are on forest service land, which makes this kind of bs all the more repugnant.
Snow nazis
These guys ducked a rope under a chairlift and are surprised that they got caught? They got what they deserved and probably got off easy. Clowns.
Relax pewee and let the adults play
@@nickweldon9410 Interesting take. Entering closed terrain is illegal and it's closed not because the patrollers want to rain on your parade but usually for your safety(no base equals deadfall equals spiraling tib-fib fractures and no one wants to deal with that) East coast is one thing but in Colorado, patrollers are EMTs, usually explosive certified, trained to rescue you in an avalanche, they are experts in snow safety. Personally I wouldn't risk my pass or fines or safety on a bumped-up, dust-on-crust, green circle glade run. But hey that's just me.
