Carving on Cannabis with a Snowboard Gold Medalist

- In this episode of FUEL, Canadian Olympic Snowboarder Ross Rebagliati embraces his infamous past and embarks on a new venture.
Ross Rebagliati was once embroiled in unchartered controversy at the 1998 Olympics in Nagano where he won gold and then tested positive for cannabis in the first-ever snowboarding giant slalom event. In the end, there was no infraction of the rules and his gold medal was reinstated.
Fast-forward to today where cannabis culture and legislation has drastically changed; Ross is now the go-to guy for cannabis in athletics. He openly helms a thriving cannabis company, which is a direct nod to his past: Ross’ Gold. Ross whisks us around Whistler showing us how he’s fully embraced and integrated cannabis into his life and diet. Consuming cannabis helps to fuel his body by increasing his appetite, essentially giving him the Munchies and enabling him to consume the calories he needs to actively perform and function as a faster and stronger athlete.
If you do have cannabis, make sure you do have food nearby because you’re going to feel hungry! -Ross Rebagliati

To be honest Cannabis is a performance enhancing drug I know because the 1st time I ever got high with my buddies I destroyed everyone in Guitar Hero
Sam Dondoe LMAO I was doin the same but it was rock band, my 1st time playing killin it
Depending on the strain I might feel lethargic and perform terribly at whatever game it is, but occasionally I'll have some really nice flicks in CSGO that I wouldn't otherwise have the precision to do. I have shaky hands by nature and it can help.
Dude I feel that. I went skiing once after smoking and I swear I was killing it. I felt like I was going so fast and doing everything perfect. Looking back now I probably was not actually shredding like I thought I was but it was still a great time lmao
@@candyqueen31 I think it's a couple of factors. Marijuana tends to actually promote blood flow and increase your lungs ability to absorb oxygen. The pain reduction and lowering of inflammation allows people to go a bit further without feeling absolutely knackered. Also possibly regulates blood sugar and blood pressure which is why stoners actually have a lower rate of obesity compared to average people.
When I'm high I am at my best playing COD or any game. Need 5 mins to get into the zone and then I am GAMING GOD. I think ;-)
*But mom, I have to get baked in order to excel at snowboaaard.*
i mean he DID win the gold medal, so apparently it works

My dude is so stoned he's driving with a helmet on
It’s 4:30am and I’m laughing my ass off haha
But do you how dangerous driving is? Lol. (Really though) lol.
I’m sure for it him feels just like a hat for him while high lol
I’m sure it feels very comfy lol
Y’all don’t do that?
But he’s only doing 5mph
I had "end stage renal failure" when I was 10 years old and I'm now 23! So I've had it for pretty much all my life, and now 40+ surgeries later and 13 years later, I have no kidneys in my body and am solely dependent on dialysis 3x a week to stay alive! I throw up on average between 2-10 times a day! (On average like I said) I not only have trouble keeping meds and food down, but I don't have a "healthy" appetite on top of that! So the only way that I have found to feel hungry and be able to keep food and my medications (ie blood pressure meds, and my dialysis meds) down, has been cannabis! It's seriously helped me feel a little better and allow me to eat and keep what I eat down! It's definitely been a miracle worker for me!
how have you een? do you still use cannabis?
Enjoy every day
maybe soon scientists can grow you a kidney in the lab and hook you up. much love. youre a f'n warrior!!!
@@francoisgrimard5816 its best to grow your own. 🖖
How you been doing bro ?
I love how he says hes just feeling the edible, as hes driving, staring at the filming crew haha.
Bro I’m laughing my ass off in bed run all over
I like that when this guy popped for cannabis in 98, he was like "yep, i smoke." When other athletes pop for drugs, they deny, deny, deny. I'm glad he got to keep his metal. He deserves it.
He did not say "yep, i smoke." He lied and said it had to be second hand from a going away party and he got away with it.
Smoke to wake up, smoke to eat, smoke to ski, smoke to work out. Duuuuuude
This guy needs to reset his tolerance....fucking Whister Brah
Bro needs a tolerance break
Nah bro. Not required when so many different strains and different temps to vape.
Some people need it. What’s the issue? Better than taking opiates to function or taking Xanax everyday. Some people are at their peak mental state when they smoke pot. If I works for him then right on
dk “Need it”. Lol.
honestly the munchies could be my favorite part about getting high. I love that boring bland food can be reborn into amazing shit. I've eaten entire bags of tortilla chips with no dip when i have the munchies.
I've never related to a comment more in my life haha
Bruh, imagine eating excellent food with the munchies, i hope you experience it.
@@Claedicus some of the best food I've had was when I was toasted :)
Olé
went raw dog on the chips😫
I feel sad for the other dad, i hope my dad will grow up to be like you.... Man thats harsh .
im just confused because if the kid can write and draw, why would they be saying that. The dad should be a full grown adult, like what????
Rose wait I read your comment and then he read the picture!! That shit confused me too fuck, he wants his dad to grow up??
It’s simple the “kid” is a full grown adult whose mom just has a child of her own that she married, which made the child the step-dad of the first son. It’s pretty common here on Venus.
@@Rose-iu1ho kids don't have great time perception, they don't really understand the concept of growing up when their young.
this whole fucking chain of comments is making my brain pour out of my ears
snowboarder turned skier, this guy is high for sure...
Skiing, at least Freestyle skiing is the real shit my man.
The variety of grabs that are possible and the possibilitys of individual styles is so much higher.
For powder i'd prob still go for snowboard tho
He said he snowboard for the first time in the olympics
Matthew Macchioni skiing is fun as fuck bro why make it seem like skiers ain’t shit
I do both...! So Enjoy the best part of both sport..! Also when I'm tired of attaching or detaching the binding.. Or I just want to hop on and hop off easier and faster from the chairlift. It is obvious the chairlifts are designed for skier. Depends on my mood. I usually split the day between skiing in the morning and boarding in the afternoon to use different muscles..
Lmao skiing is fun tho
This guy takes "stay blazed" to a whole new level
Haha...the look on his face at 9:52. "Turkey bacon..."
He was like overwhelmed with the prospect of it. Only someone stoned or someone that just got out of prison could be so enthralled with a turkey bacon panini.
Z Gates Best part of the video
Z Gates LMFAO THAT WAS HILARIOUS!
Daath Gnosis That's because cannabis isn't a toxic substance.
Daath Gnosis what the fuck go sniff some QUick Powder you methhead lolll
my body is like this guys. dont feel hungry if theres a bit of anxiety. dont sleep. weed helps me liek it helps this man.
I'm the same way
1111111111202 same bro
Excuses you smoke coz you like, end
Sr. D he smokes cause he like ? You speak English child ?
same for me👀
I love to see how Rebagliati (just) overcomes his anxiety and goes on with the things he loves in live. Big Respect!
marijuana does enhance your performance
I like to play chess when I'm loaded
nobody ever wins
seriously, why do people dislike this? this is beautiful!
Love showing people that you can be successful and have cannabis incorporated in their life while doing so
"I'm 43 now, so you notice when you're not 23 anymore..."
Well damn. You look maybe what... 27?
I’d say 35
Yeah id say like early 30s
Exercise and a healthy diet will do that
Wow just wow. What a positive inspiration this story is. Thank you munchies for producing this wonderful video.
Ross is just such an inspiration in my life and, I've probably watched this 30+ times this is pure gold the way this is shot,I wonder how he's doing now?
me personally I cant smoke before I do any activities, I enjoy rock climbing and surfing but when I'm stoned I feel a little more lackluster, usually smoke after a workouts feels more rewarding and a good way to release body tension
+NubaHuba I would recommend smoking or using a sativa or more CBD heavy bud. This will help keep your energy up and take away that "lackluster" feeling.
+Jacob Smith Thanks for the advice! But sadly being in nor cal I was already smoking heavy sativas! Though after I read this a few days ago, I got my climbing buddy who sadly has bad epilepsy to bring his CBD/THC considerate vape when climbing and that work a loads better!! But even then I still felt like I do better when not stoned, like I said I like the reward feeling mixed with a few IPA's afterwards more anyway :D
Also smoking makes me a shit load better when doing street photography while I'm downtown, I just smoke half a king J, put on some thrash rock in my headphones, and I dont worry about what could go wrong (which can if you take the wrong photo or enter the wrong building).
As a long time ski instructor , its such a part of the game. Weed allows you to be present and enjoy your time on the mountain. Those morning chairlift rides smoking a bowl with the sun coming up over the mountains is what i live for. Night skiing when the lights are on is better stoned as well. drop into the trees and smoke a joint . life is grand
You make skiing sound so tempting
the reason he doesn't eat/is never hungry, is because he smokes so much weed, so when he's sober he doesn't feel like eating cause his body just relies on the weed to make him feel hungry. I know from experience
Will Merritt dang i feel it
He wasn't enough before canabis?
I used to have the same problem
He said he always had a problem eating though
@@Butch_117 he smokes weed for 20 years. he dont even remember what before smoking was like.
I love it!
Smoking weed enhances life!
CustomGrow420 I tried to get high on life without weed by exercising and eating healthy but it just won't work. I may get a lot more happy but weed just automatically enhances everything. Only if we could activate our unused brain chemicals that weed/hallucinogens activate...
Jolieolie comin too ya in a comments section! Good growing!
Ayyy Jolie
CustomGrow420 maybe if youre life was not sogood before....
And your a fucking idiot. Keep on smoking and become a slave to a fuckin plant
I am yet to find a cannabis user that isn't humble. So down to earth.
I can’t find one that isn’t high.
I thought he was saying that his first time snowboarding was at the Olympics. I was like damn, weed is performance enhancing.🤣
Hands down, best mini-documentary on this channel
Honestly this guy makes me want to move to Canada so open so honest look at this dude he was an Olymic snowboarder and loves skiing now always open to new ideas what a wonderland.
wow I have exactly the same mentality as this guy, i can barely get food into me, if i don't think about it i will become very skinny, so I smoke weed and make shakes with a fucking magic bullet!
+danthemanzizle holy shit it's too similar man, I'm thinking of getting one of those things
+PMTJsmash They are awesome man. I get a big bag of Grade A organic frozen mixed fruits, stick it in the freezer. When its time for a shake, you have nice fresh fruit, add some veggies, organic juice, some flex seeds. Quick to make, super healthy, and tastes so good...and you get your servings of fruits and veggies.
+danthemanzizle I would be eating only 1 or two average/small meals a day before I started smoking, but with weed, I can eat as many times as I want XD.
+danthemanzizle I would bet you that if you led a healthy, drug-free lifestyle, with exercise included, you would have no problem with diet. If you don't have a strong appetite, maybe you should see a doctor about this?
@@1mill2 have you tried eating more meat? It has way more bioavailable nutrients than plants. Low blood sugar is a sign of high insulin. Insulin should be checked yearly on routine blood work with hga1c. Even skinny people have a risk of liver fat and diabetes. 20% of diabetics are thin. 🖖
This whole thing felt like an adversiment for Ross Gold
It was! No worries though
Thanks for being a role model man. This will help change the world to be a better place on cannabis being widely accepted in society and not looked down upon.
PS. I love safety meetings in the woods too while snowboarding! lol
Good episode. Dude is definitely about his mj. I've never thought about what he said about it enhancing an athlete in sport or anything like that before, but as a skateboarder/snowboarder and from firsthand experience it's so true
Some people are pro, some are against, it's obvious. From my personal expierience, I should say that pot has both good and bad quality's: Weed makes you feel relaxed, just chill, absorb the envirement you're in, a movie or a song is so much better, it makes you feel good, the way you should feel all the time,...but despite that it also makes you lazy and wanna eat muchies, and that's unhealthy, but what is healthy these days, I mean, people even start questioning milk, bread, pasta, peanuts, fruit juices...a bag of crips or chips is not the end of the world..
I think people who want to try or use pot, should be able to...those who don't want to use it, just don't use it...
If people use it before work, and they don't perform as they are expected to...those people should take responsibility for themselves. You only know what's good for yourself.
This is how I feel about Cannabis. I hope someone's with me.
Please excuse me for my English.
+Amplify: Drum 'n Bass Agreed, you hit the nail on the head.
+Amplify: Drum 'n Bass Couldn't have said it better myself. Why go to jail for something you want to do. But don't force it on anyone else if they don't want to to. Smoke responsibly.
+Amplify: Drum 'n Bass I knew guys that used to blow huge amounts of money of weed and more on munchies food. It can bee an expensive past time for the average worker.
They're not very responsible for their own actions, are they?
Amplify: Drum 'n Bass each to their own better to grow their own rather than do their wages in to over priced dealer weed.
"good luck rolling a joint that fast in the woods"... budy you don't know my SKILLS >:c
Yeah I’ll chill w you, real weed is still the king imo much better than all these vapes and oils
some bong smokes, funky tunes, and skiing are the best times
this man lives the dream
I like marijuana, but everything he says at 6:00 about empty sockets in your brain is 100% wrong, unfounded, and scientifically disproven... That's like saying because we have opioid receptors we should all be taking heroin to saturate those receptors for optimal function. We produce endogenous cannabinoids, and they serve a purpose, and like any other drug, when your body doesn't need to produce endogenous transmitters, the system becomes depressed, and doesn't function as well without exogenous stimulation.
Its not nearly as drastic as with primary transmitters/receptors, but the effect is indeed similar..
Rodrigo Partida
My point was, that to assert the body is 'made for exocannabinoids' is an inaccurate claim.
It is an erroneous assumption. Are our bodies meant for exogenous neurotransmitters?
Are our bodies designed to take exogenous hormones too? Just because we have the ability to make use of extra testosterone to increase physical performance does not imply that we are designed to take testosterone, and in fact, it's the opposite, just as with cannabinoids. Do some research,.
Just as taking testosterone shuts down your natural production of the hormone, the same is true with opioids and endorphins/ dopamine, the same is true with marijuana and cannabinoids. Our bodies produce cannabinoids as a way to calm us down. When we are stressed out, we produce cortisol and other chemicals, and hormones to make us more capable of dealing with the issue at hand, however, when the stimulus is gone, and we need to relax, our bodies create endogenous cannabinoids to help mitigate the stress response, and bring us back to baseline,. Just like supplementing anything else our body produces, marijuana depressed the natural production of these compounds, although this system rebounds quickly by comparison, marijuana use can cause the body to limit natural production of endogenous cannabinoids, as well as other neurotransmitters. You can assume anything you want about the body being made for weed, but you would be making shit up, and believing in a stupid theory that has been disproved by actual clinical trials.
+Snoitseuq Pie what about melatonin? our brain makes it but we can also supplement it without ill effecets.
Byron B
Keep in mind the difference between facts and marketing. The fact is there is no such thing as a free lunch in biology, and there are side effects involved in taking melatonin, they are available online so I won't list them.
We have different mechanisms in our bodies, and different triggers for different hormones. Also some systems are highly adaptable, tolerant of changes, and quick to recover, some are not.
The body uses external light as a trigger for melatonin production, therefore this system is HIGHLY adaptable, and reacts quickly to changes.
Others are not, such as testosterone. The second you inject test into your muscle, your body stops producing endogenous test, and starts trying to convert the extra back into estrogen... This happens quickly, and it can take months for the body to naturally restart production. That is why men are given female fertility drugs like chlomid to help boost/restart the natural production.
The concept remains the same though, the only difference is how tolerant the body is of exogenous stimuli, and the rate it can recover once that stimulus is removed.
The cannabinoid system is another that recovers relatively quickly... The main thing, and this is true for melatonin too, and this is the crux of my point is that suggesting the fact the body interacts with a molecule means you should be stuffing as much of that molecule into your body as possible, or that it is healthy is at best wrong, at worst irresponsible and insane, and does more to make users of marijuana look like complete idiots with shitty excuses to use it, when they could instead use facts, and discuss actual benefits that are proven to be true... This is a classic assertion made when people argue the benefits of weed, this is not the first time I have heard it, but it is dumb, and wrong, and actually detracts from otherwise intelligent reasoning.
The only thing worse than a lack of scientific evidence, is making it up.
+Snoitseuq Pie What he was saying was not intended to be of any scientific merit, it was a metaphor for the human body's Cannabiniod System; which has receptors in many more areas than just the brain. What he says about cannabis being designed for your body, should be taken to mean that our bodies evolved alongside cannabis, and therefor we have an entire system dedicated to producing very similar chemicals as found in cannabis. This system is boosted when consuming cannabis. The same idea applies for opium and psilocybin, and the brains relationship to dopamine and seritonin.
+Snoitseuq Pie I should have read your comment before I posted mine. Haha.
One big ad for Ross gold
What do you mean?
This is great I can totally relate to him. Cannabis is my pre and after workout.
Thank you for doing what you are and being honest and forthright about the benefits of cannabis
Seems like such a genuinely nice guy, that's the case with so many mountain locals
This had my interest the entire time, Great episode! Make weed legal!
Now this.. this is on my bucket list
I'm impressed by this guy, never heard of him, but mad props for taking advantage of the plant in this way, being a proper athlete and all... Mad props
I used to take a lot of safety meetings at work lol
Safety meetings in a walk in cooler are zee best.
Oh yes, the 'joint chiefs of staff' meetings in the cab of the truck. Those were the days.
Real talk tho:
He has no hunger in the morning because when he’s not baked, he’s not hungry. Hallmark of marijuana dependency. I’ve experienced it myself.
Just sayin’
or maybe hes not hungry because his baseline weight is 170 and he had to be 190 to be competitve in downhill speed events. the guy did what he had to do an won a fuckin gold medal. thats balls, not dependency. If you like 2000 calories a day, but you're workout and skiing forces a necessary 4000 just to keep weight and 6000 for months and months on end to gain 20 pounds, you get SICK OF EATING. /thread
Im an “ectomorph” aka hardgainer aka “skinny” and I have had days where I went without eating, it and I dont smoke. It can also be your metabolism
just cause u were an addict doesn't mean everyone will abuse it. fucking nancy reagan over here. just sayin
this is what im talking bout!! awesome stuff munchies thank you!!
this guys awesome, i met him at a cannabis expo in calgary, super nice guy!
I mean on top of all this performance enhancing stuff, anti inflammatory, appetite...clearly dabbing all day every day is also getting you blitzed all day. I love cannabis and have consumed it for more than half my life but I really feel that it should still be used in moderation. I don't feel that Ross's story is very inspiring imho.
Yeah also talking about Performance enhancing effects is total bullshit and is certainly not going to help current athletes who use cannabis. This is a manches episode and all He eats is a shake and a panini while being highly active and smoking the whole day. No wonders he is struggling with low blood sugar.
@@timomeyerink9359 hahah seriously! I mean is this is a vid mean to advocate for cannabis use it's definitely not the most gracious one...
"I hope my dad grow's up to be like you!" lol
RESPECT to u Ross . getting the word out there about the magic of the herb.
proud that this is a canadian olympian ! cheers from vancouver island
I don't smoke pot but 100% agree with its legalization. Mainly because of the 20 years I spent working bars. I have never seen a pot smoker be anything other than polite, melow and pleasant. Drunks are nothing but angry, sad and violent. Millions dead every year from alcohol, no recorded case of marijuana death ever.
no recorded case of marijuana OVERDOSE death ever. One word can be the difference between saying something stupid and being correct.
Pot smokers are a bit hotheaded when not high
I support the legalization of cannabis, but as much as I support it weed is not correctly represented in this video by any means. He just gives so much misinformation about the drug that severely exaggerates its benefits. Let me share some correct, unbiased information:
-There is no natural "deficiency" in stimulation to cannabinoid receptors. Our body uses these receptors all the time for various functions such as appetite. We overstimulate cannabinoid receptors when we consume weed which leads to the calming effects. Cannabis is just not harmful because it does have a powerful effect at the receptor. Synthetic cannabis such as spice and 7H hydro incense do have a strong effect at the receptor and lead to horrific withdrawal symptoms such as vomiting and constant anxiety. So therefore your body is not "made" for ingestion of cannabinoids and cannabinoid receptors are not "empty plugs".
-Marijuana is NOT a performance enhancer. You can make it beneficial if you add it into your daily routine to boost appetite and inhibit pain. However, on the drug, the brain does not function as well as it does sober. Areas of the brain responsible for memory and motor movement are impaired by cannabinoid receptor activity. Your mind does NOT work faster unfortunately. In fact, it could possibly increase estrogen production, which could be detrimental to muscle growth. Also, despite opposing claims, there IS a MILD withdrawal when a long time smoker goes cold turkey for a time period.
-Cannabis is not necessarily a good anti-inflammatory medicine. Different studies have yielded different results, so it just depends on which source you choose to believe. There is no conclusive evidence to cannabis being anti-inflammatory. It only inhibits the feeling of pain, which is completely different from an immune response.
-A painkiller such as Advil is not unhealthy. It is actually BETTER at reducing inflammation than cannabis. Studies have shown that ingestion of one Advil per day can increase life span because of its beneficial anti-inflammatory effects. Marijuana is not able to perform on the same level of anti-inflammation.
So, I like the message he sends, but so much of it is wrong. Marijuana is not dangerous at all and is a fun recreational drug but it is definitely not as amazing as he makes it sound. It has beneficial effects too, but those are unstated in this video while the negatives are warped around to be positives. It is foolish to make a drug sound perfect because there really is no such thing as a perfect drug.
Decreasing estrogen is good though. "Growth" would not be just muscular, but fatty liver and visceral adiposity in general. Low blood sugar is a sign of high insulin. Chronically high insulin leads to insulin resistance and diabetes. Its crap. Antiinflammatories in the past half decade have been more stringently studied and more have black box warnings for increased cardiovascular disease. Bleeding is always a risk for nsaids. If there is a study comparing nsaids and cannabis for inflammation, would love to see it. Id rather lower my bleeding risk AND lower my inflammation by eating an anti-inflammatory diet like the ketogenic diet. Very clean, loads less sugar (inflammatory), no grain soy or corn (all inflammatory). By avoiding those foods, you absorb instead of waste vital minerals and vitamins like magnesium and b12.. Thats also wasted in diabetic meds..ironic? By avoiding grains it shuts the junctions between your intestinal lining to no longer let proteins go through which activate your immune system.. Aka inflammation. Cannabis does however have science showing lowering of inflammation amd does not cause bleeding. More will arrive by 2025. Id rather eat fatty meat, small amount of medicinal plants and fungi, and be fasting most of my day and taking care of my pain with cannabis. You cant take nsaids long-term without the high risks of bleeding.. Cannabis does not have bleeding risk. Vape and edibles to avoid smoking risk.
@@dana102083 you know your stuff!!

Seego vhit type b and vhit type c
This guys munchies are healthier than my sober diet
Man, I'm a very proud Canadian who loves snowboarding. Watching our first snowboarding gold revert back ski's feels wrong. It'll be a carving board for me in the later years..
honestly truly respect this guy and what he he does, all round great guy👍
I wish I was made like this. Cannabis throws me back on anything I am doing. I can't function at all on it let alone going to gym or even work. Makes me sort of "whatever man".
Dude's hooked on cannabis like a million other people. He just happens to be really good at something, too -- so good, in fact, that when he's impaired, he's still the best in the world at it.
He seems to have the personality for it. I smoked weed every day for 5-6 years, and it really has negative effects on my social and professional function. I definitely had friends that could smoke the same amounts all day every day for many years and never seem to have any overt or noticeable health consequences.
+HeavyProfessor Sorry to hear that, man.
+HeavyProfessor cannabis is not for everybody
I remember watching Nagano with my parents, one of the first olympics i remember because Canada lost to the Czechs and Ross won the Gold in men's snowboarding. I was nine.
This guy is a world class athlete and Champion. he has a medal to prove it.
I don't care what he smokes, why should anyone else?
It's great more people are being honest about ganja. Well done. And thank you. Hoping everyone can be high one day. Peace and love. Mental freedom
You all will have to understand that marijuana is a drug. Although when people do it they share similar effects, it's going to affect people differently. Some people get sleepy, some people get pumped, some feel artistic, and some people just turn mindless. I don't think you can necessarily say it is good or bad in any instance
choo snau So if it does all these things why label it as one thing "Drug" gtfo younging
It’s a very diverse plant and is technically called a drug but we haven’t done the studies we need to too even begin saying what it is and how it reacts with our brains
well no drug is good or bad, those are human ideals, which drugs have no ideals. it's the people that use them that push their ideals onto the drug they are currently using, making it also the drugs ideal.
choo snau or really really paranoid...
its a drug tard
I hear a junkie talking, I am sorry...
Don't get me wrong, I've been a smoker myself for more then 10 years.
I've seen that when I played football and was high, I would totally not get the level that I reached when I was clear minded.
The guy is like, you see that I can eat now, well stop smoking and the first days will be problematic, both eating and sleeping, but in the second week you will see your appetite comes back.
You will start dreaming again during sleeping.
Stop talking like a junkie and face the truth, try not smoking for a month and after that month, smoke the same stuff you were smoking.
You will get hit and not be able to get out of your couch, on that moment you should realize, damn this is some heavy shit, whilst when you smoke daily, your body is so used to the stuff, that you will get high, but still will be doing stuff.
Again don't get me wrong, Cannabis is very nice to use, very nice, but the way we make vids and act like it has no negative effect is just crazy.
true
What you are basing you argument on is tolerance, which confuses me since you were acting as though he's a junkie, you spew a bunch of nonsense in which you fabricated in your mind.and have no hard evidence to prove other than YOUR OWN expierence, don't speak for others, makes you look ignorant and moronic
P.S from all the Ross Gold items you didn't get this guy is a Medical Marijuana Patient and uses cannabis for him to eat so not having cannabis could cause serious risks to his health
You are a fool.
A cut and dried fool.
I see he's point
the culture is slowly changing thanks to things like this = ). very cool!
anyone who has a hobby uses cannabis. that fact was the most fun thing ive ever leared.
But whenever I do it, my performance goes from 100 to zero real quick
munchies interview a guy who hates food and rather just get it into his system as fast as possible? :/
This is a fantastic video thank you
Keep these videos coming!
Anything too much is bad for you.
guess you should stop breathing then
RioTVEVO i
RioTVEVO wow we breath 100% oxygen every day??
Quan Chi I get a few% of methane each day from the wife.
Quan Chi there is no such thing as 100% oxygen. Are you forgetting CD and CM?
Is this not a glorified plug for his company or am I overdosing on cannabis?
def not the latter
We've watched a 15 minute ad and i don't mind it one bit. If all adds were like this i wouldn't mind watching commercials.
I broke my arm when i was 12 snowboarding down a particularly icy slope, and it kinda scared me away from the slopes ever again. I really hope i can get over that fear
This guy is awesome. I like how he studied Cannabis before consuming it. and its actually good for you.
I'm glad I'm not the only one dependent on weed to help me eat in higher volumes. Anyone else have off appetites?
Cody Bradley Thought I was the only one. Have had trouble with my appetite since I can remember, first time it was brought up to the doctor was when I was 8. Still struggle with it but it's been better the last two years or so. Don't have to be high to force food down anymore, still see it as a chore though. Like he said, I don't know how people can't stop eating.
Cody Bradley I have to force myself to eat daily. I can go an entire day and then realize all I've had was a banana. I've tried numerous strains of cannabis, and none has ever stimulated my appetite. I don't and have never gotten the munchies from cannabis. I also eat very strict Paleo, and that may have something to do with it. Most people binge on junk food when high, which just increases ones appetite and causes bigger cravings. I know many do use it for appetite stimulus, it just doesn't work that way for me.
Nate Atwood why not add some complex carbs into your diet? It's not going to kill you as long as you workout..
Cody Bradley I'm the opposite to you... When I get the munchies I often get really afraid that I'm eating too much and my stomach might explode.
This guy is a badass hahaha, you can kinda tell when hes high by the things he says hahah. im just curious if he uses high drops, his eyes were never red
love it!
would love to get some quad copter snowboarding footage!
great piece. Well done Ross.
Cannabis doesnt effect everyone the same though. I started smoking when i was like 12 and was smoking every week at 15. I kept going til I was 23 and then started to notice I was developing some problems. It was effecting my heart really badly and I was getting scarily strong palpitations from smoking. I cant drink tea or coke now any more so i guess thats just me. I think people who enjoy weed the most didnt start til they were like 18+.
edibles
I started when I was 25 now I’m 28 and I stopped smoking everyday I just smoke like one a week o 2 and I feel great
Watching this sadly just make me so frustrated. I like Ross struggle to eat on a regular basis and I can often go all day before noticing that I haven't eaten anything. I find that ingesting cannabis changed that dramatically and I would go as far as to say it's my cure for what ever it is that makes me not hungry. I'm frustrated because the country that I live in ( UK ) doesn't allow medical cannabis in any shape or form. I wish I could convince them otherwise but the government somehow only sees cannabis as a dangerous "drug" when in fact it is a wonderful medicine that is just in its infancy .
+Craig Porter I live here too. There was a debate in parliament based on legalisation of Cannabis around a month ago. The tories are ignoring the facts, but representatives of labour and the green party had the decency to even listen to people explaining the masses of medical evidence. I don't really have much hope in the current government, we all know that that they've made enough fuck ups so far.
+Craig Porter You can watch it online, but I warn you, a couple of sprite, young, false statistic spurters will almost surely piss you off.
Scrambled Egg and Baked Beans Yeah I watched the debate and I had to resist the urge to put my fist through the TV lol.
You're aware medical cannabis is available in the UK just has to be under 0.2% THC, but CBD isn't outlawed at all bro
Craig Porter dont feel too bad. Your country still worships the royal family like they werent imbred oppressors before who usually got away with shit in the past because they didnt want to make the royal family look "weak" or for the peasants to, rightly so if I may add, rebel against a system that was built to leech off of what little they did make.
im proud to own one of his bongs, and he even followed me on Instagram, awesome dude
I love riding moto and taking some dabs right before. It is awesome to see stuff like this. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
what was that vaporizor?
I'm guessing it's part of his Ross Gold line of products?
He was using both an ileaf and itaste variable wattage battery mod, and a globe atomizer. these are all common in the nicotine vapor world, every shop sells them for e-juice (not weed related). However, he did have a custom dabbing atomizer as well (the stainless steel one he didn't take to the mountain), which was very cool, I want one!!
it might be a different brand, but if it's not... it's iTaste.
It's a pretty dope product, I love it.
i have been using a g pen but doesnt work well in the cold
6:32 Anyone think we should get this guy some better concentrates? That green/brown shit hes smoking is full of plant matter and butane.
Great inspiration
Great documentary!
dude smokes way to much weed. all good things in moderation.
For real. It kind of clouds your head, it’s a different existence. I’ve been there using shrooms and ganja heavy for a year.
wait, he's high and driving?
No no, that was stunt weed.
CBD is just a body high
i think he said it's CBD mostly. meaning it has very low THC so you don't get high. but you do get the pain relief effects from the CBD still.
Hilarious guy and very informative. Nice to see someone with a sharp knowledge of Cannabis.
best thing i watched in months
h paul 420 Times.
Definitely not a performance enhancer, hes just hella good at skiing..
Ryan McC For some people it may be as cannabis after all is a psychadellic and has different effects on different people. Also strain matters... But being a psychadellic (a very mild one) drug it does have the potential to be performance enhancing.
Depends on the users environment, mental state, genes/suceptability to possible negative effects of cannabis and much more.
I know people who are super successful working in Silicon Valley who work demanding jobs that smoke cannabis before work and swear by it making them better at their job.
On the other hand, I also know low life's at 30 still at their parents without a job who just game and smoke cannabis ..... From experience it really depends on the person.
It's not like alcohol where everyone gets pretty much the same effect unless your body is intolerant to say the grains, barley etc alcohol is often made from..
sachyktothea bro it shouldn’t even be compared to a psychedelic. psychs are in a different world that can actually change your life from one trip.
Strong edibles are kinda psychedelic
And for some people it definitely is a performance enhancer. It helps to focus in on what you’re doing.
ive noticed that enhances performance in the sense that it helps remove self doubt and anxiety
fucking destroyed that smith machine!
Hell yeah i always bring my dab pen snowboarding. Its Great to take a few puffs while on the lift going up. Afterwards eat some trail mix and wash it down with some snow. I cannot wait for next season.
Love the video and his vibes "...a lot of crimes cause of low blood sugar" lol a la max thanks vice
SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHH! Don't tell anybody that it's a performance enhancer! Then they'll know!
He's definitely addicted
I recognized that in my highschools workout class in the gym, the 5 friends of mine who smoke compared to all the "good kids" who don't, we are way stronger then most of them and then there will be one or two kids just naturally strong
I really enjoyed this video. I suffer from the same problem of just not having the desire to eat, or realizing I'm hungry. Looking forward to the full legalization of cannabis.
