this is life boys :) ufff whish any of us simple skiers will be at least half of this level :) Jim have you been thinking to use volkl katana on this one?
Guys - I'm getting real old, but gunna have to start climbing for some runs. I'm scared of that. Can someone explain how climbing is done in hard boots? There is no angle flex, I am presuming that its just hard slow work - am I missing something?
@@mettflow2648 depends on the boots. i have 1500g boots that are basically resort boots with "token walk mode" and touring inserts, i'd hate to bootpack anything more than 5-10 minutes in those. but my 1200g (and previous lighter boots) boots, i can walk 20km in them, booting extended periods, even doing basic mixed climbing in em is totally fine. just gotta get the right gear for your style of climbing/skiing
I am a simple man, I see Niko, I click!
was just about to comment the same. Topsideeeee
we need a documentary length video of niko with the teton boys
The terrain they're skiing is impressive but the speed they are skiing it is what makes this so incredible.
The world needs more Niko and Jim couloir speed contests. @Niko, time to come to the Tetons!
I would love to see Cody and Niko !!!
Man, Niko is all over the place!
mad respect to all involved. stay safe fellas
Hell yeah TGR and Niko!!
Great work - this is just so impressive. Very jealous of those lines.
That's crazy that he stopped falling...that was seriously steep, he was airborne. It would have been cool to see the full footage
What kind of green vermont beanie is that? looks super nice.
Jesus Christ TH-cam put an ad right at the peak tension of that fall. 😂 😮
Great video!
real drama is here, not in movies
glad u r fine!
Nice ❤❤❤❤❤

im surprised he stopped tumbling
Lyngen, not Lygen ;)
Thanking for first tracks? Someone hasn't read their Bruce Tremper avy books lately. 😅
Basically, anytime you go out with Niko, someone almost dies.....
It’s only a matter of time
Don't fall in a no fall zone.

"skier almost dies in Norway." i'm embarrassed that i ever clicked one on any of these ridiculous channels.
