Just found this in April 2020, and watched it about a dozen times. I wish this kind of "Here is a top-to-bottom run with me and friends. No lame intro-outro. No music. Just amazingly fun skiing" video had become the norm. I find myself far more engaged and entertained by this than by most of the other ski content out there.
I live in Unikornia, went to school in the bay area where i met my friend Alan, who lived on Lake Whatcom with his folks. He invited me to go sailing and general mischief for the 4th of July. They owned a wooden 24'+ sloop, and it blows like stink at Whatcom. That night, BBQ steak, chicken and cut off ski poles. Then, we could drive to the rez across the border and buy pop-bottle rockets, etc..We could set-up rockets on the open-end of the ski pole, light'em up, and shoot each other. Keep in mind our protective gear was a garbage can lid of sorts. In the winter, i met his friend Chris Angel, who skied with the local ski team. Mt. Baker, ski team? i laughed till they taught me a lesson, blew me away. I watch this post atleast once a week, to remind me of the good ole days, chasing Alan. Thank you, always brings a smile to my face....(this was in the late 70's and 80's).

I might have watched this video more than anyone else. Still my favorite ski video. For the last five years, each ski season brought me back to this. Now I'm trying some of these moves, just not nearly as graceful.
Working on turning this style of follow into a little series... may be a little while before I get em going but try9ng to shoot some this year, and then expand next year!
In all my years, holy cow! Hat's of to the shooter! Sans the 360 tailgrabs, hung in there all the way! Distractions, dustclouds and all. Bravo! ALTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Really interesting to see how modern technique has changed so much with the changes in technology - rockers, huge sidecuts, fat skis etc. Almost a different sport to the extreme skiing of the 80s and 90s. I'd love to see today's pro skiers on a pair of old 2 meter race skis!
I've always liked watching a full ski run. Most videos are way too chopped up, you get maybe 2 seconds before it changes. Great stuff here! Well planned run and the stamina to keep up that pace... impressive.
The only thing my instructor said, to get me through trechious lines like this "Pre-down unweight, bend your knees" Now I can speef and smoke with the best of them.
It depends a little bit on skis and a little on style. Skis that are very springy make it super easy to get extra air off little jumps. Also, some people prefer controlled, disciplined lines, while some people like bouncing off of every little bump. I find people who grew up skiing slalom tend to be more into carving and people who ride park tend to find more jumps and such in natural terrain. Just because your style doesn't look like these guys doesn't mean you're doing it wrong!
well....i've got the same shreditors as you dude, just have to keep practicing to catch up with skills (long fuckin years :O ) greets from europe folks! :)
The amount of style in this video is just ridiculous. Two of the most fluid, stylish skiers out there.
👊👊
This is the best, most unique ski channel on YT. The “Let’s take a lap” series is stoke in its PUREST form. Love this content. Never stop!
thank you so much! really appreciate all the comments and glad to hear the channel connects with you!

Thanks I love showing that kind of relatable skiing! thanks for watching!

I come back and watch this video every year before ski season
Its a solid one! thanks for watching
So Epic!!! This kind of stuff keeps me stoked on skiing. Thanks Sage, Thanks Pep
Y'all make it look so effortless. Sick how you jumped over/between those trees.
Oh to be young and fearless again!!.. That was amazing!!!

Always a pleasure to see Mr Pep skiing. Thanks Mr Sage
That looks like it was a ton of fun! Love how you guys are just freely flowing through!
Love that you brought back this series
took me long enough! lol
I shared this with some Skier buddies of mine too, great run!
Has to be the sickest run I've ever seen. Epic trail creation fellas.
Such a great movie Pep always killing it.
In all my years, holy cow! Hat's of to the shooter! Sans the 360 tailgrabs, hung in there all the way! Distractions, dustclouds and all. Bravo! ALTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These dudes inspire lots of us, keep doing what u guys love cuz it's great!
calibomber209
thanks!!
Sage CattabrigaAlosa Have you had any cameras break just taped to your goggles skiing like a maniac?
World Class!! Great run guys, thanks for sharing!!
That was awesome! Sage and Pep, such legends. Best POV video on youtube, no doubt.
You guys are studs!! Make it look so easy; just slayin' the Mt.!!
Damn, awesome little clip guys, looks like so much fun. Thanks for posting it up Sage.

Epic! 10x for sharing this! Shared many times everywhere!
Wonderful, that jump between the trees was amazingly beautiful , be blessed my brothers !
greattttt footage. good lord, just got in from a howler of a run in stowe VT.
Nice run, great skier so moth and athletic!! my ideal style!!!!!
I havs two comments. First is: Jesus Pep, save some glory for the rest of us. 2). The guy keeping up with Pep, you deserve some serious kudos.
My god this looks like an incredibly fun run.
Holy shit, this was amazing! Well done fellas!
How well did you know the route beforehand? Or were all the jumps improvised?
thats a classic line at alta but the hits are always changing, we had done 2 or 3 laps before this one..
Sage CattabrigaAlosa how did you stabilize the video. It looks amazing despite all the motion and shaking. What camera did you use?
Sony action cam steady shot
built in
Just keep doin it fer Dale, keep doing it for 'Murica....Leeroy Lives!!
Is this the shreditor 112?
That was so awesome!
Would love to cruise the mountain with you guys!
What skis is the filmer using? Seet video guys
I've always liked watching a full ski run. Most videos are way too chopped up, you get maybe 2 seconds before it changes.
Great stuff here! Well planned run and the stamina to keep up that pace... impressive.
i’ve been watching “Let’s Take a Lap with Pep” for 8 years.
The original inspiration!! took me 7 years to figure out to make it a series lol!
2 of the worlds best, don't feel bad if you can't do this !
I choose to believe the name Pep is short for Pepperoni
or peperorl !
Dope. Excellent shot.
Get it boys! Shreddin' the mountain!
definatly one of the top ski videos ive seen on youtube. these angles were sick
that terrain was kickass. where was this?
one of the most epic vids!!!
one of the best lessons on skiing technique,cheers
U n pep ripped it! Two thumbs up!
no problèmes, it's a very very GOOD run. Welcom in 06 (FRANCE ) for the same
Which camera is this and how is it mounted?
Sony min Action Cam on his goggle strap
Where's this at
holy sheet. You guys are epic.
what type of skis r u using ? freestyle?
K2 Shreditor and Atomic Automatic
+Waaw Nope, thesere are freeride skis ;)
+Maarten Weyens All freeride skis aren't each time twin-tipped thats why i ask
POV: Trying to follow the npc thats given you a quest
What trails/line is this?
They're cutting all over the place. It's hard to explain a line like this with just a name or two.
Nice work fellas.
The only thing my instructor said, to get me through trechious lines like this "Pre-down unweight, bend your knees" Now I can speef and smoke with the best of them.
I think my brain just spazzed and turned off after reading this.
Nice skiing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
to my understanding, this is the only run at alta...
...okay?
So RAW. Also, jumping all over the place and not even a hard landing - either you guys knew the mountain hump by hump, or you have atomic thighs
Thanks for letting us all come along on this ride! What kind of cam, how was it mounted?
It's a Sony mini Action cam mounted on Sage's goggles
Yea Sony Action cam with google mount thanks ShredLife
mini Action with lots of deck shredin' climb action traction!
No introduction required…Alright…. Another zinger!
This is the one that spurred the idea
@@sagePerspective We owe Pep for the inspiration.
no, these guys are pro ... super light on their feet
Ah you got me Jonesing! Great run!
does pep still know a guy from hilt California named John Trinca
Looks like way more fun than rippin Bachelor =)
Insane run!
u have a big likeeee for this video..
EPIC VIDEO!
so so perfect,just fly down according to the rules of universe))
Pep is a beast , goddamn
ya I can hear all that wind
Great to see the real shit! Worthy!!!!
Its nice to see some actual skiing instead of all these helmet and pole cams that give the viewer no real perspective.
well that was a helmet cam
@@bigmems5630 he means its the viewed skier in frint of the camera
Marcellin Eberl oh gotcha
sick m8 sweet style
Are people always this springy when skiing?! I'm worse than I thought
not sure what you mean by springy, but of course these professional skiers are better than you lol
sjpro1
They're practically bouncing with springs for legs
It depends a little bit on skis and a little on style. Skis that are very springy make it super easy to get extra air off little jumps. Also, some people prefer controlled, disciplined lines, while some people like bouncing off of every little bump. I find people who grew up skiing slalom tend to be more into carving and people who ride park tend to find more jumps and such in natural terrain.
Just because your style doesn't look like these guys doesn't mean you're doing it wrong!
tarmander13 indeed, I've worked hard to get loose since my slalom days. Easy to fall back into those ways 😣
LOVE!
alta is the best
Just perfect
Ah good shit boys!!!
ihr seid sehr gute skifahrer
sick....
I like the part where he slowed down for a second. 0:45.
Yeah, thats a move I can actually do.
Bad ass!
Pep is a hard charger
For sure
NICE
bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutaal!!
well....i've got the same shreditors as you dude, just have to keep practicing to catch up with skills (long fuckin years :O ) greets from europe folks! :)
Ski Ninja!
Duude fakin asome!
ski MRG
Gotta put tunes too it Brother :)
No please dont!!!!!
Eggz Ackley Matt, the sound of the wind and the sleet like snow hittin off, that's skiing.
Snowboarders want to take those runs. Great stuff, but you are a traitor to fun snow sliding.
Y'all are nuts LOL.
