@sSteppingStones, Hi, Thanks for watching my videos. I use Sony FDR - X3000 which is an enough old but excellent model. In my mind the only its significant cons is a very simple textual control screen. But if you use it for a long time it is not a problem. Besides, you can control it by your smartphone as well.

Thank you very much! Appreciate your response and very glad that my videos are in help for you! Yes, in my mind Canazei is a very good location for staying on SellaRonda ring. Another place I like and would recommend is Corvara. Have good trip and much fun in skiing on SellaRonda! ⛷👍

@markmd9, thank you very much for your good response! 🙏🙂 I always tried to give some help to other skiers in my videos. Hope my other videos you like as well. 😇⛷

agree, helps so much to understand the terrain

Thank you for good estimation of my video. 🙏 Generally, red slopes as well as blue slopes may be very different, because incline of blue slopes is from 0% up to 25%, red slopes is from 25% up to 40%. So, no matter red or blue but slopes of about of 25% are the best just for skiers who start skiing red slopes. From this point of view I would recommend not only red slopes but some blue slopes as well for start skiing red slopes. I would range difficulty level of Sölden slopes about this way (from easiest): 1. Simple Blue slopes: Blue 23, Blue 1a, Blue 6. 2. A special Blue slope: Blue 30. Not steep but very-very long slope. 3. Middle Blue slope: Blue 3a, Blue 3b, Blue 10, Blue 13, Blue 15, Blue 32, Blue 38, Blue 39, Blue 24 4. Steep Blue and not steep Red slopes (about 20%-25%): Blue 2, Blue 33, Blue 34, Red 12, Red 7a + Red 7b 5. Middle Red slopes: Red 11, Red 18, Red 19, Red 36, Red 4, Red 5 6. More complicated Red slopes: Red 1, Red 21 If you try the slopes sequentially from easiest, I think you would find the difficulty level which is acceptable for you. Have good time in Sölden! 😊⛷

@@happy_skier Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful response!🙏🙏 I really appreciate the time you took to address my question. Your insights were incredibly helpful and have given me a better understanding. Thanks again for your support and for making such great content!

Дякую за відгук! 🙏 Дуже тішуся, що мої відео приносять лижникам позитивні емоції. 😊

Так, я нерідко бачив дідусів і бабусь і на класиці, і на нових лижах, частенько без шоломів, бо вони явно до них не звикли. І вони дуже непогано, як для їх віку, розсікали по схилах.

@@happy_skier Справа в тому що їзда на класиці вимагає володіня технікою плаского повороту(ведельн або нова хрестянія). 99% сучаснихі катальників не володіють ніякою технікою(ні плаский поворот, ні різаний). Завдяки "карвінговій революції" на прикінці 90-х звичайний турист міг розвиртати лижі гомілками. На цьому магія годіля щезла.

@@МихайлоФедоренко-ч1п так, Ви маєте рацію.

Якщо немає снігу, то лижі не потрібні взагалі. 😊 Мало снігу, як правило, буває при відносно теплій погоді. А при теплій погоді на трасах швидко з’являються горби. А на розбитих трасах якраз вузькі слаломні лижі однозначно програють більш широким. Щодо ширини лиж висловлю свою особисту думку. У інших лижників може бути інша особиста думка. 80 мм для Альп це не багато. Як на мій погляд, то для Альп, щоб кататися цілий день на одних лижах при будь-якій погоді і будь-якому стані трас (від ранкового вельвета до післяобідніх горбів), оптимальна ширина лиж якраз 75-80 мм, мінімум - 72 (залежить від конкретних лиж, наприклад, Head Magnum 72 mm - чудово), максимум - 82-83. Якщо менше 72 мм - то в Альпах можна нормально кататися тільки десь до 11-12, або треба бути молодим (років 20-40) і здоровим, щоб післяобідні горби пробивати на вузьких лижах. Лижі, на яких я катався в Доломітах, - це Atomic Vantage 80 CTI, 166, R 14.4, модель 2017/2018 року. Для катання в Альпах цілий день мені ці лижі дуже подобаються. В останній свій виїзд в Альпи у січні 2022 я катався на прокатних лижах і протестував кілька моделей лиж. Найбільше мені сподобалися Atomic Redster X9 WB Servotec, 75 мм, 168, R 13.5, навіть більше, ніж мій Atomic Vantage 80. На цих лижах я також в задоволення катався цілий день по трасах різного стану.

@@happy_skier Дякую.

I am sure you had great days and pleasure! ⛷

@@happy_skier Yes! It was the best one so far! Thanks 👍🏼

Thank you for your concern. I have more important things to do than skiing last years.

Canazei is a very good place to stay. From one side (to the left) it is not far to the mountain Champinoi and famous World Cup piste Saslong, from other side (to the right) it is not very far to Arabba and famous mountain Marmolada. BTW, spoiler, I hope in some days to complete making a new video about the trip from Arabba to Marmolada and back. Good luck and have fun skiing on the Sellaronda. ⛷👍😊

Thanks a lot for response and watching, my friend! Unfortunately, I have not chances for skiing for 2 years already. 😢 But sometimes I remember my skiing and make videos from old recordings.

Hallo @jorgrupprecht1343. Wie ich weiß, können alle modernen Action-Cams GPS-Informationen zusammen mit Videos aufzeichnen. Ich verwende in den meisten meiner Videos Sony FDR-X3000 und GoPro 10. Nachdem Sie ein Video mit einer Action-Kamera aufgenommen haben, sollten Sie einen speziellen Videoeditor verwenden, um diese GPS-Informationen wie Geschwindigkeit und Entfernung in Ihren endgültigen Film einzufügen. Für Aufnahmen, die mit einer Sony-Action-Cam erstellt wurden, sollten Sie die Sony-Anwendung „Action Cam Movie Creator“ verwenden. GoPro-Filme können mit GoPro-Anwendungen wie beispielsweise „GoPro Quick“ bearbeitet werden. Grundsätzlich können auch Softwareanwendungen anderer Unternehmen eingesetzt werden.

@@happy_skier Vielen Dank für die Info.

Kann man das auch mit der Gopro hero8 machen. Bei der Gopro Quick app habe ich keine Funktion gefunden wo man die GPS Daten einfügen kann ​@@happy_skier

@giuseppebongiovanni3513, thank you for your note. You are right. I know this fact and it is noted in the description of my another video about Saslong, which is composed in the overview style th-cam.com/video/Bzq4dzTFsPY/w-d-xo.html But this video is devoted to Saslong from the World Cup point of view and according to the World Cup terminology this event is named “Val Gardena / Groeden (ITA), AUDI FIS SKI WORLD CUP - 56. SASLONG CLASSIC”. 🤷‍♂️

Thanks a lot for watching! I am very happy when my videos help other skiers. ⛷😊

the music is ok imo

Hi John! Thans for high estimation of my videos. It is very nice for me. But still, it is better to go skiing than to watch videos. 😊 Yes, Sellaronda is fantastic, I had a lot of fun skiing it! I was also on the Sellaronda for the first time when I made these records, and I also skied the Orange Sellaronda alternative version with black pistes, although I originally planned to go on the easier version, because like you, I only followed the orange signs. 😊 Only later, when I was already editing videos from those records, I understood where I had to return to the usual version of the Sellaronda. And that's why I made these comments in the video so that other skies don't confuse the routes. In general, the sign system on the Sellaronda and the colors of pistes are quite fun. 😊 The most interesting color situation is on the Green Sellaronda on the Sitta Dei Sassi piste, which is marked red on the map, has blue signs on the circuit itself, but I would rate it as green 😊 th-cam.com/video/WA5TxQ3naOs/w-d-xo.htmlt= 1010 As I understand you are still skiing on the Sellaronda. So, have fun skiing!

Sorry, I don't speak German. 🤷‍♂️ Thank you very much for your note. You are right, Sölden has two black pistes more than my video includes. I think, under the name "rote Kar" you mean Black 1b piste. Yes, it is very steep and cool. 👍 I only had the opportunity to ski in Sölden for a week at a time for several years. But, unfortunately, I was lucky to ski Black 1b piste only one time, but it was before I bought my action cam. Other weeks when I skied in Sölden, this piste was closed or ungroomed. So, unfortunately, I have not video-records of skiing this piste. 🙁🤷‍♂️ Frankly, I had impression that 1b is closed nearly always. Moreover, besides Black 1b piste, Sölden has one more black piste number 41 on the piste map. But again, every time I've been to Sölden, it was closed always, or rather this piste was not there at all - in its place was just a usual freeride slope that never saw a ratrak, and I never saw even pointers with the number 41. 🙁 So, to be exact, my video contains information and skiing of all Sölden's Black pistes which you can ski any time you come to Sölden. And I very hope I would have a chance to ski in Sölden again somewhen in future and to ski Black 1b and 41 pistes as well. ⛷😊

@@happy_skier Thank you for the detailed anwer👍👌

Grazie mille per la buona feedback! Il Sellaronda è fantastico! 😍⛷

Yes, they are 😍

Yes, you are absolutely right. 👍 This piste requires good skiing skills and there are very many skiers on it as a rule. As I noticed the only case when you can ski the piste without crowd of skiers around you is if you have a chance to start descent not later than about 10 o'clock. Good luck for next season! 🎿⛷😊

Thanks! Yes, this is really cool piste! ⛷👍

Thank you very much for watching and good response! 🙏😊

Vielen Dank.🙏 Ich freue mich sehr, dass Dir meine Videos gefallen.😊⛷

Sì, entrambe le Sellaronda sono fantastiche! L'arancione è un po' più difficile, specialmente il suo variante alternativa. 👍🎿 Spero di sciare qui l'anno prossimo.

@@happy_skier inoltre nei 3gg che abbiamo trascorso su a Canazei..siamo andati anke in Marmolada! Lunghissima ma fantastica!⛷👍😉

​ @Robuteo littles Sì, sono d'accordo, la Marmolada è fantastica e il percorso di discesa è molto bello! ⛷ 💪

Sono molto felice per te che ti sei divertito sulla fantastica Sellaronda.

Hi, Tony. Thanks for watching and response! Yes, Sellaronda is exciting route.👍 Exact descriptions go maybe from my nature and profession - I am a programmer and used to create precise algorithms. Hope it's not too annoying to watch? 😊

@@happy_skier Haha okay. No, not at all. Was just curious and a little unsure of there was something that I had missed out on :)

Thank you very much, friend! 🙏

Yeah, St.Anton is a great place to be visited! 👍 🎿

Thanks for watching! Yes, Soelden World Cup piste is really cool!

For snowboarders it starts at 1:18 xD

Thanks a lot for watching and good response! But Dolomites itself are much better than my videos. 😊🎿

Yes, you are right.😍 But this is advantage for those who remember about this slope because there are not very many skiers on it usually. 😉 Another advantage of the slope is that it is black but not very steepy black slope (a little bit more than 40%), so that it is very good for skiers who only begin to ski black slopes.

Ad essere sincero, non ho ben capito di quale funivia parli. Ho girato questo video a gennaio 2020, quindi forse questo problema allora non esisteva. Scusa se non ho scritto bene in italiano, perché ho usato Google Translate.

Thank you very much for watching! Appreciate your pleasant response! Yes, I just plan to make a new video about the Orange Sellaronda in the same style. Hope, I will be able to do that in a couple of weeks.

Yes, exactly! This place is great for skiing and having fun! 👍⛷

Thanks for the response! Yes, Sölden has perfect blue (and red, and black) slopes. Blue slopes are very wide, in fact, they are velveteen fields in the morning, skiing on which bring you really much fun.🎿 👍

Thank you, my friend! Yes I really enjoyed that days, though that was in the last year, Jan 2022.

Jurre Wilms, absolutely agree with you. In fact this is a good black slope, but at the official skiing map it is marked as red. 😲 Frankly, marking of slopes categories at the Sellaronda map is sometimes strange. Even more funny situation you can see at the Sitta Dei Sassi piste which is marked as red, too 😊 th-cam.com/video/WA5TxQ3naOs/w-d-xo.html

Thanks a lot for watching! Glad you like my video. I am sure you will enjoy your trip to St.Anton. If it is interesting for you, you can find more descriptions of my trip to St.Anton at my facebook page. It is in Ukrainian but translator can help you.

Sure, pass me your Face link. Always like to hear experience from someone about ski resort. Stay in touch.

Questo video è stato girato l'anno scorso dal 2 gennaio al 7 gennaio 2022

Hi @pelu1964, thank you very much for watching and response. 🙏 I skied on Sellaronda only one time and used just the way by using Alpenrose lift you wrote about. But according the Sellaronda map it is possible and I saw as this blue piste joins from left when I run along the red piste from the top of Alpenrose lift. Besides, I was told by some skier it is possible and I saw two skiers which drove past the Alpenrose lift to this blue piste through the bridge. I didn't include the way by the Alpenrose lift into my film because the battery in my cam got low and I hadn't noticed that, and this part of my route was not recorded.🙁 BTW, when I skied on Sellaronda in Jan 2020, the number of the Alpenrose lift was 127 but not 43. If you are sure it is 43 then maybe some lifts were renumbered from that time.

Thanks a lot for watching! In my opinion, as a rule beginning of Feb is one of the best periods for skiing in any area of Alps both from presence of enough snow and weather. Though nobody can guarantee the weather :). E.g. now the weather is ubnormally warm in average and as I know snow coverage is still low relatively to previous year. You can control the real weather and snow by web-cams.

Thanks a lot for watching and response! 🙏

Thank you very much, my friend!🙏🌹 Yes, Tirol skiing atmosphere is great. Hope, next time you are in Alps, you would decided to try skiing. 😊🎿👍

Thank you vary much for watching and response! Both Sellarondas are great routes to run! 🎿🏂👍. Have a fun vacation! 😊

Grazie mille per la visualizzazione e il bel feedback! 🙏 Hai un canale TH-cam molto "gustoso". mi sono iscritto.

Thanks! 😊

Thanks for watching!🙏 Yes, music is like coffee, each has his own taste. 😉 Just for this reason I try to use various music in my videos. Please, try this one th-cam.com/video/8X7TU-xn_RM/w-d-xo.html Have a nice holiday in March! 🎿 Skiing in Sölden is great even at the end of April, but in March it is fantastic!

Hi, thanks for watching! 🙏 I am happy you like it and appreciate if you put “like” for it and subscribe to my channel. I have a set of videos with the full demonstration of the Orange Sellaronda as well. If you stay in Canazei, the best point to start both Sellarondas (green and orange) is restaurant Kristiania in my opinion because both routes close well on this point and you can have lunch at Kristiania after finish. And next you can ski directly to Canazei by piste Red 6 Del Bosco.

Thanks a lot for watching! I am happy you like it. 😊

Hi, thanks for watching. If you stay in Obergurgl for a couple of weeks, I’d recommend you to plan visiting Sölden more than 2 times. I see you are interested mostly in simple blue slopes, so you can find a lot of excellent blue pistes there. Giggijoch ski area (pistes 13 and 15, in fact they are not a pistes but the whole blue field) and Tiefenbach ski area (pistes 38 and 39) are ideal for skiers who skis mostly on blue pistes and landscapes are fantastic there. You can find appropriate videos in my channel. If you like my videos, I’d be grateful for your subscribing. 🙏

@@happy_skier Many thanks I am a senior skier with worn out knees but still love the mountains, will check out your recommendations and have subscribed best wishes

@broadoak2006, Thanks a lot! As for me, Solden has one of the most excellent meal infrastructure on ski slopes. At least much better than Obergurgl has. And in my opinion grooming of slopes in Solden is better than in Gurgls as well. Enjoy your vacation!

Thanks for watching! It was New Year period 2019-2020. Yes, I've been planning for too long time to make this video. 😊
