i know what you mean but if you are trying to tell me that i wouldnt get to the lip without crashing, idk how i should respond. and in this vid, the last 100 ft of the inrun are one fuckin cat-track wide and kinda smooth.

yes, pros are pros but its not like they are superheros. i could never do a trick over that thing, but saying that a better-than-decent skier used to big jumps isnt able to straight air that thing is just an understatement.

dude, its smooth in terms of grooming, but theres a big whoop and then you drop into a gnarly compression, followed immediately by being thrown 120 feet towards a pile of rocks and dirt.

its pretty damn technical

no the snow is smooth, but its got rollers and dips that are pretty sketch at 55+ on something that narrow, into a huge jump that you need to be pretty much perfectly ready for to land.

i think the compression is one of the biggest factors someone who just watches someone hit a jump misses. you cant really always tell when you watch it but once you go skiing again and hit a larger jump you remember how much it pulls on you when you have to cook it into a big tranny

I was up there today waiting for the weather to clear up so Leo Ahrens, Durtschi, and Wilson could hit it. The light got even flatter throughout the day. Bjorn Lines and the other snowboarder left. Forecast is lightly snowy and overall shitty for the next week. The snow sucks right now too. It might be a while.

There was a thread that told you how to get to its general area. I think it was like Altas top lot (never been there so idk) and you go thru a red gate and pass like 3 houses and i dont know the rest, but you turn there. I could be wrong so dont hold me to it. Have you tried google earth?

i think the angle of the inrun is something people don't get from video...to bomb something that fuckin steep, THEN think about 120ft of valley...

we can ask chad to make a better landing, just have to wait until summer

that's the point of the gap, it's sketchy. not to mention there's a ditch right at the bottom

actually i think the tranny at the bottom might be better on chads than pyramid. chads landing is a little bigger, and pyramid has that lump

Chad's is sketchier. You're hauling ass into a wall of sorts, and you have to turn out or else you get impaled.

Pyramid has that bump, which can be troublesome, but not nearly as bad as the ditch at the end of Chad's.
