on a cold cloudy snowy day is there anything better than the calmness around you and the sound of the lift cable rattling in the pulleys.....every day is an epic day!
Hey Lucas! I was introduced to the JJ after ACL surgery, during the 2011-12 season. I skied them as my dedicated ski until 2017. They were so fun and easy to ski, and there is something magical about clicking into those skis for sure. I still ski the JJ, but in the UL version. I also just ordered the ARV 100, and hope to get them on the slopes soon. All these years of skiing Armada , and I never paid attention to their clothing until I watched your videos. I just ordered some Armada soft gear. Even to a 60 year old, their clothing looks dope. A salute to the late JP Auclair and Julien Regnier for designing the JJ; it revolutionized the ski industry! Every time I get on those skis, I silently thank those guys.
thank you SO much man! really appreciate that extra leg of support. i really think the JJ is one of the most solid skis out there. its kind of hard to describe, but you start to realize its greatness slowly over time as the ski is used more and more. the ARV 100 was super intriguing to me initially - i just dont like how its not edgeless on the tip and tail! thanks again man!
it always surprises me with the world how it seems be currently, when you see all the skis and boards sat outside the bars ect, that there arnt thieves about nabbing them.
bro, I do not understand how your legs can last all day. Today was my first day and I was falling over from my legs being so tired after the 8th run 😆(still hoping you will come visit us up at Schweitzer in North Idaho! (FYI we're on the IKON Pass))
Hi Lucas 😊 I am digging the song you used for the video. BTW, the Alps are going to get hammered next week… the seasonal outlook for Central Europe looks good 😊⛷️
Hey Lucas! Loved coming across your channel in preparation of Park City this February! I love that app you showed at the end showcasing your stats. What is that called?? I'd love to use it, thanks!
Coming up for before new years. I know I’m a holiday goer but I live east coast. Any thoughts on how the terrain/snow will be? I’m hoping some good double blacks/chutes will be open I’ve never been to park city? Thanks!!
Vibin, Chillin, playin... it's always a good day when you are on the planks in the fluffy stuff. Great video and stoked to share another adventure with you. The season is starting to "heat" up!
Man, you do a great job presenting your videos. How do you record the clips looking back at you while you’re blasting down the mountain!? Do you ever travel to S. Vermont? Thanks for the sweet entertainment Lucas 👊🤘🏼
bro you gotta come to louise and sunshine. I dunno but mountain seems bigger but i might be completly wrong. Also what do you do to separate those caterpillars?
ive been to both before last year. park city is 7300 skiable acres, lake louise is 4200 and sunshine 3300. so park city is nearly twice as big as those mountains :D
Hey Lucas, what do you carry in your backpack? I’ve observed an increasing number of skiers with backpacks in resorts here in Utah, but I have no idea what they are carrying. What’s in your pack?
I think what I am finding out is that when the skis get longer and wider it takes some of the reactiveness out of the ski.. I hear you say that the skis are softer but I would challenge you on that because I have seen you on those skis on some steep tight chutes and it sure seams like those skis held.. Are they softer or less reactive or both? Do they hold good on tight steep and sometimes icy chutes.. Do they stick a landing? I have a cold this week and I think it is the perfect week for it.. There are a ton of people on the slopes with not much open.. The fresh snow looked good but dealing with all those people and especially all the kids is a problem for me..
Anyone have an opinion I’m looking at either the arv 106 or the new 100. Like the weight and playfulness of the 100s but the powder capability and stability of the 106s while they still look playful enough.
heading up LCC for Alta opening day today.
ready for something new.
I saw you I’m parked right next to your van

you're right, scott! thanks for the encouragement.

Ambient shots are really nice to hear the authentic sound of nature and the ones occupying it
yah! they are fun to throw in there.
Cant wait for the real trails to start opening up.
yeah me neither!
when do they open?
I’m also curious when we should expect them to open up. I’m heading up the 18th of December 🤞
Appreciate how you always put the run name and chair on the corner 👏🏻👏🏻
glad you like it!
Alta a real hotspot..... The powered Alta best in the world there's no doubt about it
no doubt!
it always surprises me with the world how it seems be currently, when you see all the skis and boards sat outside the bars ect, that there arnt thieves about nabbing them.
id like to believe that ski resorts are an exception to the other things going on in the world

it gets easier the more you do it lol
yah i mean just gotta get conditioned to it again!

Hey Lucas! Loved coming across your channel in preparation of Park City this February! I love that app you showed at the end showcasing your stats. What is that called?? I'd love to use it, thanks!
What editing software do you use? I also love how you put the run and chair in the corner.
thanks! i use adobe premiere pro for my editing

Hey Lucas, when are you going back to Vail?
Probably won’t make it back there!
Man, you do a great job presenting your videos. How do you record the clips looking back at you while you’re blasting down the mountain!? Do you ever travel to S. Vermont?
Thanks for the sweet entertainment Lucas 👊🤘🏼
thank you! those are typically done with a 360 camera on a long selfie stick! and i dont go to vermont, no!
Love UTAH love those WHITE WALKERS 🌲
these are the JJs but i love the whitewalkers, also!
Looks great. Can't wait. Be at Park City on Jan 14. First time in Utah.
Nice work! I’m itching to ski some real terrain so I’m looking forward to see what Alta has open.
alta was rad man! definitely felt like some real skiing.
bro you gotta come to louise and sunshine. I dunno but mountain seems bigger but i might be completly wrong. Also what do you do to separate those caterpillars?

Digging the new music ur using

Hey Lucas, what do you carry in your backpack? I’ve observed an increasing number of skiers with backpacks in resorts here in Utah, but I have no idea what they are carrying. What’s in your pack?
i carry my big camera, 2 lenses, a microphone, a long selfie stick and the gopro boom mount.
You can also carry extra gloves hat and jacket in case you want to remove lawyers or carry extra layers for your kids

Do you know how your 116s would compare to Bent Chetler 110 or 120? I heard those skis are really soft..
the 116 and bent chetlers are pretty similar! both are all wood skis with edgeless tips and tails!
Anyone have an opinion I’m looking at either the arv 106 or the new 100. Like the weight and playfulness of the 100s but the powder capability and stability of the 106s while they still look playful enough.
Depends where you ski and what else you have in your quiver. If you get decent snow and no other skis id say 106
for a one ski all-mountain quiver, i would say the 106
@@LucasCatania17 Sent it on this years arv 106. Hope I like it!
It’s mating season for the Elks on the slopes
hahaha lmao
So you have an icon pass, do you also have an epic to ski park city or are you just buying day passes?
