- A usual skiing day for Candide in his home resort, could have ended in a better way this time! Out skiing with his friend Aziz Benkrich (red pants), we should probably tell you 'DON'T try this at home' !!
quiksilver.com/snow - Sport
despite the many impressive feats performed in this video, I'm still impressed by how fast he can run in ski boots!
Brony Twelve LoL xD
+Brony Twelve Haha :D I was thinking the exact same thing :D
Quote!
+Nak Attack Other shots looked sped up, maybe that one also
ikr and not falling
the most impressive part is when he ran in ski boots.
AGREED! Still laughing on that one. That was so unbelievably hilarious. I remember though, coming down fast one time....and there two people in front me, I guessed wrong, and one decided to veer off in the direction I chose. Only option go between them, with a quick cut to the right. Went down hard. Never would that happen to this guy...to sharp and quick on the draw. He gave all of us a new perspective in the snow. Love the share! Thank you!
Like how the hell do you do that
tru so so very tru
i can do that
I AGREE
Pretty sure those cops just wanted to give him a fucking medal.
+Acertive Pillow OMG yes thats so true
+Acertive Pillow I Think they were staged
+Emil Carlsson No you think??
pedropunky Yeah, dont you?
+Emil Carlsson haters gonna hate
That's got to be the best frontflip in the history of frontflips.
Kevin Thomas B hes talking about the guy in the red pants doing a front flip, dumbass
HellbentS7 Thank you :)
bullshit there is no frontflip
photomorti Look closer. You'll find it.
photomorti 2:55
"DON'T try this at home"
But, how?
home... station is implied
I'm live in the mountains
@@greenforests6239 hi live in the mountains, im dad.
@@Max-me9ol hi dad I'm I'm grandpa
Max rainmaker :))))))
2:27 Think if your sitting with your family, looking at the beutiful view of the snowy mountains and suddenly you see 2 people flying 3 meters above you doing flips 'n shit, made the view much better ;)
+Rekke Rekke can we all praise Rekke Rekke for giving a time 10 seconds before the actual scene so you can see the build-up and there's buffer time in case the video buffers?
+1 man, +1 man.
Ronan Fitzgerald Hahaha
+Rekke Rekke So true. More like flying 3 meters per second
Yeh and destroying for others

The speed that he skis at is just insane :) candide is an inspiration!
I saw this pov edit when it first came out, then re watched it when it became mainstream and on newschoolers, now I'm watching it again. This is the best pov edit every created. That is all.
OMG your sooooo cool!!! Did you really watch it before it was mainstream!!!! I mean that is so incredibly cool that I understand that you just had to comment about it! You are from now on my absolute fucking hero hipster!!!!!!!!!!
DOOODDDDD!1!1!!!!!111!!111 Ik bruh, I'm lyke da koolest gui evr. Just trying to say that candide is the shit bro. Didn't mean to come off as narcissistic
UNTILL NOW
How’s your life been since you made that comment 9 years ago?
This is his backyard, he knows every turn and every hill.. So don't panic about the danger he might bring.
It's not about his knowledge of the landscape, it's about danger, he might involve other people in ...
Ravenous Basilisk Trust me this is staged. He would also get banned from the place instantly if he did anything like this without permission. A pro like him wouldn't risk that.
Master Kappa yeah, i know, but still it kinda disturbing =D
He can't see through mountains so I don't know how he does to be sure he won't be landing on someone.
You're a fn dumbass. Home resort or not thats still dangerous and just not cool
This video epitomizes what every skier wants to do at least one run in their life, lol, and not get punished by the resort/patrol.
kind reminder we have the ski police in the Alps too...
Why aren't you allowed to ski?
@@romain.l5451 Quit lying
Romain Laurens yeah, what are they talking about? Never even thought about such a crazy idea.
@@atomulic we have something called alpine police, it's a police unit specialized for task in high alpine areas.
2:56 PERFECTION
That was probably my favorite part
Benjamin Gadberry that is awesome
Seriously, to all of you thinking this was dangerous, you're literally fucking confused. This is his home resort... it was staged. You guys really actually think he'd risk these stunts just for a chuckle? He could lose sponsors and be taken to court if he injured someone else. Seriously people, use a little logic please.
I dunno man, I haven't met a lot of forward-thinking ski bums...
Matt Stein yea beacause Candide is your usual "ski bum"..it's staged!
Matt Stein Because you suck at skiing
Pretty sure Matt Stein is being sarcastic.
BWinDCI Well, this is the internet. You'll never know for sure xD
Soo many hate comments, this is fucking awesome in my opitnion.
awsome excpet put other in danger.
WP4WW3 Psssh, don't underestimate a good skiier.
TheCameltotem If you're such a good skier why don't you upload some videos of your mad skills?
TheCameltotem Good skier cant predict bad reaction from other people (kids, panic...). Reason why other is in danger.
Only part I didnt like was the slalom of the t-bar cause if some dumb person freaks out and trys to move they would get hit so super sketchy! but other then that sick edit !
He is absolutely incredible. Such skill, control and finesse.
Im just amazed about how fast he can run in skiboots.
yes its amazing i cant run in my ski boots
Weißer Wolf
One of the coolest skiing video i've seen. Just really damn cool.
The way you and Aziz and everyone else shaped this mountain is genius. Jumping a squad car and other skiers. I'm about to watch many of these videos. Peace!
Thanks candide, for yet another inspiering film. You have brought freesking to were it is today.. For this reason you will always stay one of my favorite freeskiers...
That was absolutely awesome, and love just hearing the skis shred
The slo-mo "cop shot" edit at the end CRACKED ME UP! I'm still laughing!.GREAT video!!! And truly awesome skiing! Sharing this, Candide!
CE MEC EST UN MONSTRE !!!
When someone pulls off an entertaining ski video like this, I say BRAVO, ENCORE!, ENCORE!
I watched it so many times. And everytime, I am amazed.
I liked this vid better when it had just around 600k views cause it was mostly skiers and wintersports people who would look up and find it. Now that it went viral it brought in all the anti extreme sports enthusiasts who complain its illegal and dangerous. To all those people you just don't understand how amazing and cool this is.
fuck off hipster
Minase Iori Go back to minecraft kiddo. What he meant is that it's all staged and he had permission, it was all under control not illegal or dangerous at all. Even though you can't skii well, doesn't mean that others can't aswell. He's pro, and the vid was cool.
Joe Green minecraft is so 2012
Jimmy Henders haha what’s wrong what provoked you to write these comments random hatred (very random)
that dudes r just purely jealous, that they will never live in Alps, and have that great life.
3:00 Gros malade !!!!!!!!! Tes vidéos c'est de la bombe !!!!! Respect de suisse mon vieux
+SliceOfMoon Peut-être qu'il truque ses video
il y a beaucoup de montage la dedan x)
Unreal! Last shots probly my favourite ever in skiing, super fun to watch!
Toooooll...wahnsinn....wahnsiiiinn...HUT AB!
Ich schaue immer ...immer....das ist unglaublich!!
Waiting for the 4th episode!!! So stoked haha
Kefmans it wont come out :(
Why wouldn't it?
He’s racking up those frequent flier points with all the air he catches.
That is some of the most sensational skiing I have ever seen - Wow!
"NUT JOB!" Laughing. That was so much fun! Let's do it again. Great share.
The ending is just epic!!!
give this man a hero5
DuckyDuckFR why u so mad
Where’s mr ducky (a reference to the channel (your narrator) and don’t worry I am a skier
Hypersmooth Hero 7 please
Luca Studios YT )
Honestly my favorite ski edit
That's one of the best go pro edits I've ever watched. He's been around forever too.
let's be real this video is fucking amazing and if any of you parents really had appreciation for skiing you wouldn't be leaving hate comments about how you'd beat him up. Very likely it was scripting meaning the children were aware, due to his fame he has to keep a good profile with skiers even if not with police, so pipe the fuck down and enjoy this absolute masterpiece
This just made me realise how far we got with video stabilisation in the last few years and how urgent it was. 😂 thanks GoPro
He is just so amazing. I wish I could be half the skier he is.
Amazing editing in both this video and it's sequel. I hope to be this good at editing and on the mountain someday!
lol!! i love the ending the best!
Déconcertant de facilité, surtout le double back ;)
Just Love it. Share this around. What a great video and amazing Skiing!!!
The only thing that this video is missing is some nice music....
The sound of his skis shredding is more than enough to me
crazy good
If you go to the ski resort, " la Cluzaz" And see a guy FLYING, Well, it's Candide, for sure
aha c'est une légende là bas c'est génial
haters cant possibly be skiers. best showcase of skills i've ever watched no contest
Crazy tricks aside, that mountain looks insane! I've never seen a slope that open on a mountain before, it's like a playground :D
He did a fucking Dub 12 at 3:10
how many skis do you go through with one of these videos
Avec une go pro
+Clementine Bost non mais quand tu comprends pas l'anglais tu peux te taire aussi
+Stéphane Abbet toi aussi tu peut te taire 😡👨👩👧👧😡😡
+Clementine Bost Les skis sont faits en noisetier je crois
+Xa Xious X)
There is no danger in this video. Everything was planed before shooting, and edited to make a fu**ing cool video. Love it. :)
Awesome!
I can't even imagine what that must feel like!
"Dont try this at home !! " - because i have snow in my room -.-
2:57.. amazing
What an Ending! Amazing Skiing!
fantastic video, great editing... great tricks... makes me want to be there
WHAT DA FOQUE ???
Backflip audessus d'un camion de police, au calme.
Those are some insane skills, but those slalom in-between the people was just plain fucking stupid.
Why? You know how easy that is if you are good at skiing, maybe i don't see it from a beginners point of view.
TheCameltotem This is not about how good you are. You can't predict the reaction of the others skiiers. If one of them panics and changes his direction, it would make a stupid accident.
Pedro X They can't change their direction because they are on a button lift. They can change neither their direction nor their speed.
Timothy Leigh Oh sure you can't change your direction or fall because you're on a button lift. lol
Pedro X What direction other than up? You could sway to the side for a second but the drag is strong and you will get pulled back in line.
Awesome Candide and Aziz, keep it up!
i sat there with my jaw dropped the whole time. That was sooooo Dope! i really enjoy all your videos. Best skiier on the planet right there!! Ive watched a Few Words at least 20 times. So much so I had to by Faction 3.0,s . They ski fantastic and can rip, bomb,cut,slash, and rail. Awesome clip!!
I'm assuming the stunts involving other people were staged. If that is the case, fucking awesome.
But when they are riding in the lift, a woman with a white jacket puts out her sticks to stop them.

Cttwyt😡🤔💸🍋😇😇😇😚😇😇😏🍚🇵🇹💸😚💉😚🍚😚💉😳😬🍚😄🍚🍚🍚
fucking awesome
I've not been skiing before, but I really want to have a go now!
But it look easier than it is its very hard to learn
I had a huge snowgasm watching this madness !!!
Candide Thovex shows us some extreme lines in La Clusaz - not for the faint hearted..!
dans la description:
...'' Follow Candide'' .. quand on le voit rider comme ça, ça va être dur d'arriver à la suivre ! :)
Great idea to making this clip into a small story. Brings a smile to my face. Makes me wonder how many people you know and how you get them crazy enough to participate : -)
this is so cool thanks for the inspiration
0:28 I pretty sure someone hit him😂
sorry the "I" was a mistake
@@datboi5288 no problem man
you're right
pas évident de courir avec des chaussures de ski
This is an adventure film told with documentary aesthetics. Nice vision!
that's just freaggin' gnarly! loved it
dat half stretched frontfleo though
I want your life bro!
Ha if I tried that it would be a short one :)
incredible........
But it would be a good way to go :)
Watch his other one listed as "one of these days" it may be part 2? Most incredible runs I've ever seen
He broke his back in 2007 and he can only jump smaller thing so he mainly sticks to pow
it's so funny and fantastic! thank you for good emotions!!!
I am a snowboarder and never liked skiing but after watching this video I'm going to teach myself skiing. :D
Do you really think the T-bar guys/kids/girls were unaware that Thovex was slaloming between them in a while? Come on, you can't seriously think the entire video was improvised, you can't be so stupid. It was planned and scripted in every single step, it's an ad from Quiksilver, not a stand-up street battle
Well we know.
-.- *ya dont gotta ruin it*
Haters gonna hate
We really dont care about how he do the video... its magic
If only he had a gimbal.
This looks like so much fun.
***** dude this is set up. Its pretty clear. Plus Thovex is a pro skiier. That isnt reckless thats safe for someone like him to perform. If that look reckless I would recommend staying off the ski hill because you sound like a senior citizen.
That's right! Senior citizens should not be skiing! Think of how dumb that sounds.
Samuel Forsyth He's a pro skier so he has the right to put other people's lives at risk? Why then not let F1 pilots drive the wrong way on the highway if they want to, they're "pros" too.
Geez giving skis to such brainless idiots is like giving guns to retards.
The point is not that he's gonna crash into someone, but the fact that the others around him aren't pros, so you won't know how they react, which independently from the pro raises the level of danger significantly
Ballinobudget You're not worth my time.
This guy is a very good Skier but I think the risk is to high to hurt an other skier very bad...
Im a skier too, and i have to restrict myself for an shoulder injury, but, i keep enjoing the mountain. Doesn't matter if you are doing a great jump with a cork 720 or just going down a flat line in the backcountry, the only that counts its your happines! :D
One of the coolest skiing video ¡ve seen justa really damn cool
c de la bombe t viéo t un taré dans ta tete par contre tu gere grace a 3:41 gros GG a toi
Candide Thovex is french and 90 % of commentary under video is in english xp
Pure awesome I can't wait to go skiing in Italy now one 3 months:):):)
This is just a video that want me to go freestyle skiing again.
I bought a new snowboard last winter...now when I saw this....I want go back to skies! :D
AWESOME VIDEO!
Love 0:30
sorry 0:26
this is fake. no one can run that fast in ski boots
Ulysses Yarbrough no it's not
#BRAAAP LEGEND it was sarcasm, dude
Ulysses Yarbrough you a fucking dum shit
lol guess u don't get sarcasm either
XD
This is insanely awesome
Impresionantes 😲 es como puede patinar tan rápido, es habilidad muy excelente 👌
Me when her parents aren't at home
I liked this edit except for the part at 0:25... that was fucking stupid and irresponsible.
fuck what you think lmfao
Lmao, aren't you a badass!
I agree with you, I can't imagine skiers slaloming around you while your on a button lift
That's all I thought.. He's one of those DICKHEADS
that's why the lady hit him with her stick lol
The only video that makes skiing look cooler than snowboarding lol
Aziz's jump at 2:57 is INSANE !! Holy crap !! THUMB UP for this guy too !
Yep, the being a dick part was the only downside to this. I wish more people would follow the basic principle of not involving people who didnt ask to be involved.
I think the slalom between the people was unnecessary irresponsible and too dangerous...even if staged.
There are enough dumb heads out there who think they have to mimic this.
they arent "dumb heads", atleast more than half of them, others are just "concerned" about their safety...
That's one sick run!!
This is so awesome, having "Taking a frontflip over a road" at your criminal record, thats the dream
Quicksilver, as a promoter of the ski industry, you should not be supporting athletes who demonstrate reckless skiing. Using guests who are riding up a surface lift as slalom gates is completely unsafe for the public and goes against the Alpine Responsibility Code. By supporting this you are showing to others that this type of behavior is acceptable. As a responsible company, you should be discouraging unsafe skiing of your athletes and ensuring that it is never showen in video edits.
it may not be responsible but people of Candide's caliber can clearly pull it off
*****
I think you're both missing the point. Respect gets respect. Whether or not you have the skills to ski like that doesn't mean you SHOULD ski like that. The best skiers on the mountain also get hurt on greens and blues. It doesn't take much to catch that odd edge. I don't care if idiots hurt themselves, it's when you hurt others I have a real problem. Well spoken Andrew Bethel.
Chris Madison and that's why insurance has been invented :D
***** Chris Madison Go put up some SLOW signs, ropes and gates somewhere else you internet Ski Patrol heroes.
It was ALL organized... T-bar people, those guys with funny clothes, and the police. Everybody knew that Thovex was skiing and doing that video, the people in the video also knew: where, what and when he will have done it. So please don't open the mounth if u don't understand things. A bit of brain! Sorry for my english... ✌️
