Our instructor, for 5 days, had us hitting this every morning for our daily warm-up.😂
Then he told us it was called Valentin after the 1st man who died on it......nice 🤣

Wow, I didn't know that...

[@Plantagenaut]

Wow! Frightful, Captain! Ice, brings back a bit of terror... You handled it well! Bravo! 🌨🌧🌨

[@ChasingSnow]

Steep and icy, not really my favourite ;-)

[@jian1457]

I also been in 2alpes and I did jandri 1 and the diable

[@ChasingSnow]

Nice, I'm sure you had a great time... :-)

[@TORQKK]

[@ChasingSnow]

Cheers!

Woww this is my happy place ❤. What device shows the slope inclination, speed and other parameters in your video? If you write me back, I will be grateful 🙏.

GPS info from gopro and virb edit to display it...

You seem such a fanatical skier that it is is really worth investing in your own waxing and sharpening material. It is very easy to do yourself and I find it quite enjoyable. Put your favorite music on and there you go 😊 (thanks for all your great videos btw, really enjoy them and therefore I subscribed) What did you think of les 2 Alpes? i skied it 20 years ago and mostly remember very long queues to get up the pistes. Didn’t like it at all.

[@ChasingSnow]

Thanks for the tips and sub! You are right, I should at least invest in a sharpening tool to keep my edges in order. I'll look for some after season.
Les2alpes was better than expected. It has some really long runs, and I'm planning to go again next season once the new gondola opens, which should reduce the queues.
Enjoy! :-)

Thanks to a bad storm that hit Maine,many big trees down, power, phone, and internet were down for a week and the land line phone is still down. The internet is back which gives me a bunch of your videos to watch. I thought last season you decided to get a file and sharpen your skis before hitting those scratchy slopes. Bit of a comedown after Zermatt. On to the next video.

[@ChasingSnow]

I still need to purchase one of those edge sharpeners. I was left with one pair of skis as the other pair had a hole next to the edge so I thought better not to ski on them until they are serviced. Both are serviced now, ready for the new year...
Glad all is coming back online after the storm, sounds pretty severe... glad you are fine...

[@boogiejed5485]

Well skied, I've been here before, these runs to the resort are tricky especially when icy. Skidding and wondering when the skid will ease 😂.... Looks like ski patrol should have closed this run 😳😳

[@ChasingSnow]

It's a long way down if you slip... I didn't see too many people try it...

[@Puzzoozoo]

Suffice to say I will not be doing that run myself, and especially not on rental standard skis.

[@ChasingSnow]

Didn't want to risk ending my season early on this one...

[@Puzzoozoo]

@@ChasingSnow Sensible decision. No medals for being over ambitious in skiing.

[@dhowe5180]

I think I would’ve stayed in bed

[@fredbar2168]

Valentin is not so difficult in reality.

[@ChasingSnow]

Yeah, if my skis were in good order I think I would have enjoyed it....

[@keefsmiff]

I've seen a grown man cry after bum sliding down that...😂

[@ChasingSnow]

Exactly what I was trying to prevent by being so cautions ;-)
