- The sun left the arctic for the winter, so we followed it south to the Alps, and linked up with Loic to ride some classic Chamonix lines.

I really love to see myself how you've massively grown as a filmmaker. These are legit movie quality "vlogs"! Keep up the great work!
Lots of cred to Joonas too, to say the least! 🙌🏼
The Hidden Faces guy in a Schirmer video. Best ski vid makers together! Nice!
I can't believe, you drove over 4k kms then do that...as your first line. Absolutely mental haha. Nikolai, that guidance and support you gave Loic going up, on the crux was divine. Can't wait for episode 2! Stay safe team.
Congrats on finally hitting 100K subscribers! You freaking deserve it!!!
Nico Schirmer and Cody Townsend back to back videos?! I'm blessed 🤩
Nikolai has the ability to stay so calm and focused as he gives clear direction to his partner in such a potentially perilous situation. This is true leadership!
Niko is always so calm, supportive & caring to his friends
Haha I am 196cm (6'5'') and would love to go on a rant together with Loic on tall skier problems and how most companies have basically abandoned us, making powder skis that dont come in longer than 189cm :D
Thanks for the great video as always. You are basically 80% of my ACL rehab motivation content. Probably gonna watch Eulogy tomorrow again on the stationary bike.
G3 and black crows make skis over 190 but idk any others
@@astasjaa black crows makes the anima in 194, yes. But where is the 196 nocta for example? Doesn't make sense to me that that doesn't exist, when it is a full rockered deep powder ski that u can easily ski in body height plus 10cm
Volkl Katana 108, 191 cm
Völkl Confession, 193 cm
Rossignol Black Ops Sender, 194 cm
Armada Tracer 118, 195 cm
Salomon QST Blank, 194 cm
Blizzard Rustler 11, 192 cm
Black Crows Anima, 194,4 cm
K2 Mindbender 116C, 193 cm
Elan Ripstick 116, 193 cm
Fisher Ranger 116, 193 cm
Rossignol Sender Squad, 194 cm
@@norway. look I am aware that I overexaggerated a little bit with the number 189. But the thing is that to a person my height, even 193 is borderline too short for a pow ski. I'm not asking for +10cm of my height, as most people consider the correct lengths for a powder ski. But looking at the Völkl example. It's great that the confession comes in 193. But where is the logic behind the revolt 121 (which is more specific to deep snow and also significantly more rockered) only going up to 191? Völkl used to be THE brand to go to as a tall person, the shiro even came in 203. What happened?
The 4frnt renegade used to be 196, now it's 191. The tracer u mentioned is discontinued, now the longest Armada ski is 192.
It's just a weird trend and I don't understand why it is happening. Surely there must be enough skiers taller than 185cm who would buy a 195+cm deep powder ski
People are recommending short baby skis, what you really need is a pair of 200cm reverse/reverse skis (Praxis and Heritage Lab both make one)
I can picture all of your videos playing at the Banff film festival. Incredible.
For Sale: 1 pair of 194cm Blackcrow skies. I can't even begin to imagine what it was like to "squeeze" through that crux on a 45 degree slope. Really enjoyed that vid. Hope to see you on the mountain this season
The shot at 13:35 is just too good. Great clip, great lines, great shots!
Loic was killing it, as were you! Beautiful shots and conrats on 100k subs!
always amazing to see the videos you upload and they inspire so many people to do what they love, thank you for showing your journey with skiing with us :)
I love how you prep talk to each other and compliment the turns - Team work makes the dream work 🎉
The soundtrack, the opening score in particular, coupled with the mountain views are Ahhhh-inspiring! Nice. Work.
nice...im skiing in Chamonix at the start on January so its nice to see the snow conditions are good
as always such a great video, the effort you put in is really noticeable
So good! Always get the stoke levels maxed when I watch you films. Get the first ski of the season in a day and this just fired me up!
This is amazing. The edits, the skiing,the zero emissions, your the best!!
Thank you for making me love my vallée even more, beautiful video!
Congrats on 100K! You and Joonas are great team 👊💯
Let's go Niko i've been waiting for this one and then you bring a Dane!! Another lovely film - Can't wait for this series! And congratz with 100.000 subscribers you deserve it so much.
Bro you are giving me so much motivation for skiing,cant wait to do my first lines and cant wait for your another videos keep doing this you are killing it
Congratulations for the 100 000 subs !!!! Amazing content and beautiful drone shots.
that was sick as, I'd love to see some content of you skiing off piste at resorts, it would be super cool to see what's out there.
To every normal skier this just looks impossible. Great Work!
Love your videos. Been watching for a few years and makes me want to visit the north! We get some dark in Seattle too but losing the sun is wild haha. Best of luck and thanks again for making these great videos!
Great video! Amazing skiing and decisionmaking, remember to stay safe!!
Absolutely love your videos!
Been waiting for this upload, and congrats on 100k aswell!
I don't know why or even if you will see this but I loved your videos so much that I started learning Norwegian on Duolingo
Haha!
@@Nikolai_Schirmer OMG I never thought you’d reply but thanks I guess it is kinda funny too
I guess if I finish learning it then I wont have to use the subtitles in your videos
congrats on 100k! I've said it again and I'll say it before, your content is some of the best on this site and I highly commend you for all the epic content!!
Niko I love what you do I watch all your videos on repeat and all my friends are sick of it. You bring infinite amounts of stoke to the table and I hope you never stop with this absolutely crazy content. Go topside boiiis!!
Topside boys forever!
Topside boys forever!
Amazing as always😍
Congrats on 100K!!! You deserve 10 times that. Love the content man, it makes me want to be like you. Keep it up man ❤️❤️❤️❤️
your videos are amazing, Nikolai!
Another epic! It was so refreshing to see the downclimbing bits as I thought on the way up how the hell can they ski that? As always send some love to the photographer/videographer they go to some extraordinary lenghts (or should that be heights) to put my heart in my mouth.
Bergschrund's are terrifying; wise call! oh, and, "There are less things to bump into,"... facts!
great job again Nikolai! head bowed from (actually HIGH altitude - I skate skied up to 12,000'+ yesterday) the Colorado San Juans!
That was a sketchy climbing session, the rappel in ski also a bold moment!
Big fan of you Nik!
Chapeau to your Dutch partner! Nice turns indeed!
Dude! Such a great video!
Did my first skitour of the season last weekend!
Cheers!
Niko has such great vibes - thanks for posting these vids man, one day ill make it to the alps
Crazy line, you don't miss!
Beautiful as ever, Niko!
Insane riding guy’s what a line 🎿⛷️💯💯💯
congrats on 100k nikolai!!!! onwards and upwards.
Phew. These videos just get more and more nerve wrecking! Stay safe and congrats om 100 k!
Such a extreme relaxing video
as always weeeeeeew.... congrats for the 100.000 subs :D
Cant wait for more!
Congrats on 100k easily my favorite creator
daym a lot more mountaineering than skiing, shows where the passion is, both :)
no joke these aren't only the best skiing videos online but their just some of the best content over all. really amazing stuff and you deserve all the success coming your way
First time I've seen the ascent look more fun than the ski down by Nikolai.
Go to tignes, i'll be there in february. It's my childhood and it's truly the best of all stations!
Congrats on 100k!
This is amazing man.
Spicy tacos for breakfast, love it. A+ as always - 15 minutes have never seemed so short.
Fet video, Niko!🙌
So good Nikolai
Amazing lighting!
you make the best video
I realy like your video’s Nikolai!🔥🔥
100.000 subs - congrats
Joonas' grading in this, sheeshhh, so good
Gongrats on 100k subs all deserved
You guys are nuts 😳 cool video
Gnarly and good.
Nice shot of Stetind. You need to climb the south west pillar some time, a great route.
Gratla med 100k 🤩
Insane!
He is bacc
amazing video
you are living the dream
congrats on 100k subs!
the quality of your footage is better than apples wallpapers now, such as the Yosemite wallpaper, nd your drone footage is insanely good
on point as always, compadre ;) 10/10
Takk kompis!
Congrats on 100k
Still the best ski content online
Unreal
the "bergschrund" callout was hilarious
Amazing video as always, appreciate your work!
Does anyone know the brand of Loics glasses when going up? The glacier ones?
"Did anyone bring sunscreen"?🤣💙
top-notch
Wicked!
10:15 "Blue pistes in Verbier just to get Started' - yeah, that's how I usually start my seasons as well. I don't transit to alpinism skiing the same day instead though :S
Rasmus is the man!
Clicking Like before watching.
10:54 top side boys!!!! all jokes aside, this is the real deal
I love your videos. But can you make a video about how you plan your tours. How you use the avalanche report and handle the risk? And how does a colour change the risk pf avalanches in addition to a normal mountainside?
jag är också svensk. jag gillar att se att någon jag gillar att kolla på är svensk som jag är.😃 jag älskar dina videor!!
lit
happy 100k🥹
5:40: "Bergschrund": noun. The word of the early 2022-2023 season among all the cool skiing kids on TH-cam. eg: "That bergschrund looks a bit steppy" - Cody Townsend about The Sphinx approach.
Loveee all of you so much but It hurts my soul the noises those skis made on the stones
Been following for a very long time. I wonder why your subs are still not skyrocketing. This is too niche? TH-cam doesn't promote this because of the dangers?
Anyway, stay safe and if possible keep on riding these dreamlines. I like that mountaineering twist on your videos!"
100k!!
@Nikolai Schirmer curious as to why you chose not to charge the crux? Obviously I wouldn't, but it definitely looks like it's something you would have done! What was the thought process? Too steep/firm on the exit? Too much exposure with the no fall zone cliffs below?
r. i. p. the skis
please keep doin those vids
Can I ask what is the main source that is producing electricity along your travels?
