Lucas is such an amazing skier and videographer seriously deserves way more attention in the youtube skiing community
Appreciate that man 🙌🏽
Ya one of best ski channels for sure
Love watching skiing so tired of all snowboarding terrain Parks shit on TH-cam ! LOL ! Love you Lucas ciao Bello,⛷️🌬️from a old lady 😂😂😂😂
fr
Love ya lucas
Ski’ing snowbird for 5 days for the first time starting tomorrow , conditions look absolutely incredible
should be all time monday/tuesday when they open terrain!
@Bkirlin313 Nice, I'm flying in Monday morning for the week. First time as well.
what a day! thank you snowbird!!
Deep Snow ! ! !
Fantastic Lucas .
What a crew you accumulated for the GS lap!!! Lucas, party of nine!!
haha i know dude! it went from 2 to 5 real quick!
snowbird really is just an amazing resort
love seeing you mobbing with boys thru the trees, love seeing you riding with more people
yah just happened organically. nothing planned or setup ahead of time!
Another incredible video from Snowbird! Keep them coming! I had surgery a month ago and use these videos as motivation to get back healthy and strong to get back out to Utah
love to hear that man. recovery quick!
The Sicilian skiing sensation!!!!!
More adventures we love them keep them coming Lucas be safe out there Snow is deep....
sure is! thanks man!
What a day this was! Way to capture such a sick day of skiing while also still ripping. It was a pleasure skiing with y'all on such a deep day!
yoo so awesome to rip with you for the day brother!
love the interactions with fans and even more doing a lap with them .
This one got me FIRED up, great video man
Awesome video Lucas! ❤
thank you!
O' face... on point! Epic runs!
Awesome video! Thanks I'm worn out that's how much I'm in it, not been to Snowbird in thirty two years, but remember the runs. Well done!
You make these runs look so easy! I hit the bird the first time ever and looked down some of these runs and could not understand how you do these so fast, while recording, AND talking to us! crazy skill!
thanks! the runs are always steeper than they look on camera!
From this day forward we will call you snowbeard.
I also skied 2 feet of pow today, but Tahoe pow does not look like that.
Bro it’s seriously cool seeing you ski with some friends! Deep snow and great vibes in this one.
I love the first lap powder day vibe on STH. No hoots, no giggles, just heavy breathing... No fooling... no friends on pow days.
Shredding with homies is what it’s all about. Thanks for everything you do! 💯
excellent!!! the bird really goes off when the base hits 100"
yeah! thats when it really gets good!
That looks like an EPIC (no pun intended) POW day! FUN! Enjoying the music added to video as well. Awesome Day!
thanks man!
Me and the Rad Dads are watching all ur snowbird videos preparing for our first trip to the Bird! “Go pro stop recording” what D-bag!
Great seeing you as always!
bro thats crazy
Sweet tape! Rope drop - insane!! I know the GoPro makes it look not steep and some of this stuff looked STEEP! Glad you're hittin' it for me! Thanks for taking me along!
another great video lucas! thanks for the stoke and inspiration
Sweet vid, skiing and pow day. Trek always finds the pow..
trek is a beast!
LCC is by far the best place to ski in North America. Snow quality, terrain is unmatched. I've skied all over and there really isn't any comparison. Waiting for the next storm cycle and I'm going back out there. Northeast ski season is a joke with rain every week. I've had enough.
GAD2 was sick on 1/11/24. Was on the 20th or so chair up Gadzoom and headed straight for GAD2. The trees around S.T.H were amazing. Knee deep fresh powder. Hit the Cirque later in the day. A classic powder day at the Bird. I love that place.
thats the way to do it
I just got back! Was at the Bird from Sunday through Wednesday, then I was at Brighton on Thursday for a "rest" day before heading back to L.A. You clearly chose the best day for Snowbird and with the locals helping out, it was an excellent day for all! I wish I had seen this a week ago so I could have planned some of these lines. (Only "Some!" I'm not at all near you guys' level.)
The year is starting to look better with snow.
The mountain I call my home. Drooling right now but have my week booked for the spring with my kids. Your snowbird vids get me stoked. You also were at aspen and those mountains where I spent a full season, I couldn’t help watching those as well. Great shots and some amazing powder in this vid.
thanks man! enjoy the week with the kiddos.
Looks sick out there keep shredding!
WOW! Great fun, and a great video Lucas! The snow is deep!
thank you susan!
Thanks for sharing your day. You do an outstanding job. Snuck up the road mid day yesterday for a week at the Iron Blosam. Currently stuck on Interlodge and your video has us stoked for what will be an epic week. Keep on rock’n.
Lucas had a gooooooooood day!
sure did!
Absolute banger Lucas!! This is my new favorite video of yours. You did a great job capturing an all time day. Skiing with a local or a friend showing you around is so cool and so much fun!
glad you liked it man!
Doesn't get any better than that! At least I can't imagine it any better!
it really doesnt! too much more snow than that and the mountain doesnt open anyways!
Soooo sick dude! Love this video. looks like so much fun.
Yoooooo such a deep day!!! Counted 10 face shots just down lower cirque!! So sick!!
Trek the goat
Lucas you are totally stoked after that epic day of powder. Only the bird can do that!
Although it was quick I’m glad I was able to catch you at the bird in that tram line. It was nice to see you there. Stay safe and healthy this season brotha.
Killing it out there Lucas!!
thanks man!
BANGER!! 🔥
thanks bro!
POW at the Cirque! Perfect timing you scored. That was flashbacks to last seasons pow days. Amazing content as always man, stay safe out there with all the snow in Luna!
Banger video I hit the bird last Monday. It was amazing.
What a sick day!!!
The Bird is awesome....
⛷⛷⛷⛷⛷⛷⛷⛷
so much fun man
The best place in the world to be on a powder day. Sick video Lucas!
Always enjoying your content!
thanks man!
Was at Deer Valley MLK weekend. For once we timed the snow just right.
Awesome video keep up the good work job happy new year
Amazing video man conditions looked great
thank you!
Any tips to keeping your gopro from doing the dreaded 5 second shut off due to cold battery warning? Are you running enduros?
keep the battery warm when you arent using it! dont just leave it in your gopro on your helmet and then turn it on when you want to record. and yeah 100% need to have enduro batteries!
looked like a blast!
super fun!
Looks like great conditions. Stay safe out there
thank you!
Just wait until the next two days "Saturday: Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 19 to 25 inches possible.
Sunday Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 18 to 24 inches possible."
mountain likely wont even open on sunday! and probably very late on monday
@@LucasCatania17 Got the next two days off work, "Groomer" just watching the mess unfold on the webcam.
I love the solo videos but the comradery is amazing too.
This is so epic! This is what the Bird is all about. Is there a cliff? Who cares, it's deep and steep.
haha pretty much!!
I was talking to a couple friends who coach up in Washington and they were saying it was like 20 below sans wind, looks like Utah is getting the cold fluff and meanwhile it was borderline rain with 50 mph winds today at squaw!! Need some love down here in Tahoe! Guess for now I'll have to live vicariously through youtube. Get some face shots for me home slice.
im starting to realize i am going to need some powder skis for this. hopefully i can pick up a used pair in town. my 93's are definitely not going to cut it.
yah if it snows at the bird, a dedicated pow ski will make the experience much better!
Many days a 93 under foot is great at snowbird. But yeah if you go on a day with big powder I would recommend renting a powder ski at a shop or even at the resort. I mean buying is awesome as well but kinda expensive and ROI depends a bit on how many powder days you get
Lucas I just skied park city this weekend. Totally sick and I was thinking of all your videos there.
This will sure bang! Sadly Fernie has had lifts closed for the past 3 days itching to get on that snow
Another great pow video for my mental training. I definitely ski faster after watching your videos!
love to hear that man!
Couldn’t keep the snow off the GoPro! Insane face shots man!
haha! at that point just gotta let it be part of the shot!
The pow depth was ridiculous. I thought you were swimming inside for a second. That’s an epic day at snowbird.
just insane snow up there. haha only a foot too!
that rope drop is why we ski, gnarly
amen
Damn that looks all time
Sick day
It's never a bad idea to go to the bird!
Looked like an all-time day at the bird
Nice weekend to get comp'd a room 😂😊
haha!!
Most likely there will be 50+ inches of un-skied snow at The Bird Tuesday morning. Could be a legendary snorkel day.
Hit Snowbird for the first time this past week. It was an awesome start to the 2024 season for me!!
Epic Snow out there, Im Jealous, we cant snow here in CT, just a few inches... bummer so far.
sorry to hear that man
@@LucasCatania17 it will come 😁 Tuesday and Friday next week..
Remember skiing the Cirque regularly when I was a ski bump there in 74. One of our regulars skied 223 downhills as his powders ski's and would straight line it LOL. Braver than me!
Good to see another old timer here. Do you have an opinion hip-check ''face shots''. Cheers.
Peter have to say never really hip checked, at least not intentionally. Just jumped in and started cranking short turns as soon as I could to control my speed. Maybe our narrow ski's of the early 70's slowed us up as we certainly did not float like modern ski's do today. My ski's where Rossignol ROC SM550's I believe, Rossignol's top GS ski which I think had a 66mm waist. Being a ski bum in those days we waited for no one! Lovely to see Lucas enjoying the powder. @@PeterDavis-nj5tc
@@garypoyntz6948 I hear ya Gary. There was nothing like pushing the tips down the fall line on serious pow day at AltaBird, fresh snow boiling up in front of you til it blows into your face and over the shoulders. It can still be done on todays skis, you just need to keep on the front/tips to get that pow build-up. My experience, your mileage may vary. Cheers.
There’s no right or wrong way to ski in my opinion. I do it to have fun and be outside. The term you’d be looking for rather than “hip check” is called a slash.
@@LucasCatania17 Us old suckers are stuck in our ways and only know one way.🤪
EPIC DAY
yup!
Wow and to think I got excited over 4” of powder the other day.
4" is solid!!
For fun, next time I ski steep tight trees, I’m only using my left pole while keeping my right pole out front and steady. Lucas makes it looks so effortless but I’m sure it’s not.
haha! and you gotta put some weight on the end of the ski pole too!
Should have brought your snorkel! Sick video
haha some people had snorkels on!
lol to the dude that tried to turn off the GoPro with voice commands.
Your a legend Lucas! You making it out to Colorado anytime soon?
i was legit just in aspen for a few days!
Sent this to my brother in snowbird right. He would appreciate this.
its real good up there!
Hey Lucas how do you do those face sprays? I wanna learn how to do them they look sick on camera btw
Is there an alternative to holding the camera at the end of your pole? It would be cool if the camera could be mounted on, say, a rig attached to your helmet with the camera in a similar location in front of you, so that you could be free to plant both poles. I guess that presents safety issues in a fall, but it would be cool....
Any 2 wheel drive sprinter van winter driving suggestions?
Lucas, I am not sure if you’re at snowbird right now, but we’re expecting a huge storm and the mountain to be closed tomorrow. Do you think we’ll be closed or we’ll be skiing tomorrow?
You will almost 100% be fully closed tomorrow and likely in interlodge for the day if the storm performs the way it says it’s supposed to. I would say skiing may resume Monday afternoon or even Tuesday.
@@LucasCatania17 appreciate the help Lucas
Please try vail almost everything is open. That my your place this year
lucas , what length skis were you skiing with?
these skis only come in one length. they are 183cm.
Yo Lucas!
Yo!
Now that’s a pow pow day. What’s that first day skiing Mach?
no i have skied it a few times before already!
No words...
Runs were so good from POV they had to be censored.
What app is that at the very end that shows your stats?
ski tracks
Coming too Brighton soon?!
i always find my way up little cottonwood instead :D
You know its deep when Mickey Mouse makes an appearance!!!
haha that is true!
Where you going when you head to BC Lucas?
ill be there feb 4-9 and march 15-17!
@@LucasCatania17 Your in for a treat. We also are getting unloaded upon. Utah and Col look ridiculous. Gonna have to head that way soon.
how do your skis never get damaged? you’re always skiing over rocks and stuff there’s now way there’s not chips and stuff on your skis
Define damage? There’s certainly scratches and chips and stuff like that but those don’t affect anything. I’ll use a ski till it’s full of core shots
@@LucasCatania17 i guess i just don’t pay attention to how beat up your skis are in the videos 😂
@@LucasCatania17 also love watching your videos. watching your videos always makes me hella excited to go skiing
Who is filming you from in front of you when you’re skiing and don’t have the GoPro attached to your pole?
I am! I have an extension off the front of my helmet and the 360 camera erases the pole.
@LucasCatania17
Maybe some day post a pix of the helmet cam and extension in front of Luna. For us tech neophytes
@@LucasCatania17 very cool! Thanks for sharing. I was baffled. As an older guy it’s sometimes tough for me to keep up with technology. I really enjoy your videos. Their quality is really amazing.
I posted a video 3 weeks ago going over all of my camera gear and it includes that extension. Season 4, episode 124.
I’ll look for that video. Thanks.
can i now make my 121 comments? i like the base layer beanie.. i have a couple masks that the forehead part slides down into my eyes.. that i what i need to watch out for... speaking of that my helmet goes down into my eyes.. my goggles prevent that from happening... to me if i have the right goggles they prevent my forehead from getting cold, my helmet going into my eyes, nose getting cold, and fogging up...
oooo... that snow looks good... it looks like you made right call with the 121s
some of my best skiing has been with the locals..
yes haah these were the 121s now! such a fun ski
@@LucasCatania17 it looks like you had a blast..
Can you please do more alta videos?
I only have 3 days left there
