Great content, as always, Lucas. Stay safe...I think we'd rather watch you rip groomers all season than accidentally toss yourself off a cliff. Keep having fun out there.
I appreciate that man. I’ll wait a little longer until I throw myself off a cliff then
LETS GOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Thank you for your donation
WAIT!! I didn’t see the donation on my phone! Dude WTF
That is INSANE holy. Thank you so much dude omg
The amount of effort he puts into these episodes is insane
i appreciate that man
That reaffirming self talk literally gave me chills dude. Honestly inspiring
I can relate to the self-talk pep talk.
I’m glad man. Such a big part of skiing
The quality of these videos is insane man. Then you consider the fact that we get one a day and it's just unreal. Good shit mate keep it up!
Thanks so much dude. Really appreciate your support
I should have named this video - trying not to ski off a cliff
Always a smart decision… way to pump yourself up Lucas 🤘
Is that song in the beginning and as you were driving away some kind of strange version of Franklins Tower? Looked like treacherous terrain . San Diego is a good 7-11 hour trek depending of how fast you go and traffic . Godspeed if you do head down there .
Agreed lol
I had a very close call will a huge cliff on Lincoln it was a tiny chute but crows peak and submit chair make it all worth it as a person who has lived in park city for years at a time sumit chair was the best run of my life and crows too.
I haven’t skied crows nest with the chair yet..it’s been years. I remember hiking it then having to traverse back into the resort ..that shit is steep in there!
Ngl, seeing you come up to terrain and be like "naaaa that's sketch" is refreshing 😂 makes me not feel as bad :P another fun video!
For sure man. I’m sketched out 99% of the day I’m skiing haha
Whoa! thanks for the great video, Lucas. I'm 74 now, can't ski anymore, so live vicariously through your lenses. Sugar Bowl and Squaw (Palisades) were my home bases almost 50 years ago because I loved the "gnarly" terrain as you say nowadays. Lift tickets were half price on Wednesdays so we drove up and paid $6 for a whole day of Sugar Bowl magic. Right across the highway was Donner Ski Ranch and we could stay in the sleeping bag dorms for $5 a night, complete with a hot shower. Also enjoyed your video of KT-22 and Siberia at Squaw/Palisades. Great life you're living; thanks for sharing it.
Thanks Tim. So great to hear from someone like you who are in support of the journey I’m on. Means a lot sir.
WOW... I haven't skied there in 25 years..... Thanks for the Epic skiing..!!!!!! .....I will return there in January...2023
Had a top 5 ski day at Sugar bowl. Met a local and was shown all the goods. So many gnarly drops, cliffs and chutes everywhere off Lincoln. The Palisades at Sugar Bowl when they are open is probably the most gnarly terrain in Tahoe. Alaska style spines with mandatory 25 ft+ airs. This is a resort to play it safe otherwise your going off some cliffs. Nice work man!
Thank you Zach! I saw the palisades there and didn’t even comprehend how you’re supposed to ski them haha
@@LucasCatania17 the locals are nuts haha
I grew up skiing this mountain and I had NO IDEA it was THIS gnarly. Holy crap, once I get a bit better I really want to come back. The whole Mount Lincoln area looks insane!
i didnt even get to the gnarly stuff haha!
It is! A lot of those runs are really double black diamonds they are extremely steep, narrow.
Great video I’ve skied this resort many times in high school. It is nice because it’s still independently owned even though it’s very expensive. The vertical is gnarly and it’s never crowded. Just remember you support a local business today. Not some big corporation. Definitely love on your video since I discovered you@@LucasCatania17
Well done on 30K, Lucas. You're really popping off these days, man. Well deserved!
thank you jorge!!
Woah he’s gotten like 700 new subs the past week! I remember saying 30K at 2023 and he did it in like 5 days
Sugar Bowl looks absolutely gorgeous dude! You ripped on those black diamonds and I just wanna say I think it was awesome showing that raw moment of trying to psych yourself back up into skiing. Most people don't realize that confidence is probably the most important factor in this sport. Any self-doubt/negativity can be so toxic and ruin your whole day. YEWWW
i appreciate you brother. i go through a lot of self talk throughout the day but today was especially tough and i was feeling beat down by the mountain. just trying to keep it real
@@LucasCatania17 that's worth more to us than you think! Keeping it real is part of the journey and growth. I definitely need to do more of that self talking too 😤 you're an inspiration broski 🤙🏻
Haters be damned! All hail the Stoke Elk!
@@ericgulseth74 ALL HAIL
gotta love the last goodbye from the rocky area at 5:56 lmao i laughed at that
🙌🏽🙌🏽
the gloves are classic....on a side note i could watch these all day!!! Keeping the stoke Alive....Lets Go....!
Let’s gooo thanks Scott!
Loved seeing Sugar Bowl. I’m glad someone else talks to themself when faced with unknown terrain.
Thanks Monique! It was a fun mountain
Lucas, thanks for showcasing my home resort. I've snowboarded here for decades, it's a very technical little mountain.
What a sick home mountain man!
My home Mt too. So underrated. It'll be me and my highschool buddies' 18th annual trip there in three weeks. Love this mountain, kinda hoping you put it on the map, kinda hoping everyone stays away haha. Yee!
The adventure continues everyday. Sometimes we doubt ourselves on the mountain sometimes off it. Thanks for showing us how to work through some of that. Awesome video Brother!
I appreciate that bro. Try to keep it real during times like that. Hard for me to just shred the gnarliest stuff if my headspace isn’t eifhth
DUDE LUCAS BE CAREFUL!!! “hell of a warm up”… you don’t warm up buddy… u jump right into it. I need your music playlists by the way! Such amazing footage and beats!!! Love it my friend. Don’t think we didn’t notice that goggle zoom in to the tunes at 8:08 mark
Haha mark you might have been the only person to notice that :)
⛷🤙 love the wee peptalk at about 12mins. You’re right you are a good skier but skiing on your own in a resort you’ve never been is no joke. I love following your journey and watching these epic videos bro so no skiing off any cliff ok! Be safe out there, I appreciate you dude ⛷🤙
Thanks so much Chris. Appreciate you man
Sugar Bowl is one of my favorite mountains in Tahoe but I haven't been in years. Mt Rose is another small Tahoe local resort that is close to my house so I ski mostly there. Today at Mt Rose they opened the Chutes for the first time all year. Ski Patrol came to open the gate to the Chutes and for the first time they asked for someone with a beacon to go first and then they let people go in one at a time. They said it was very dangerous but they've been bombing it for a few days. I was the second one in and it was amazing. Steep and deep!! Your legs must be killing by now. Whatever you do go to Mammoth!!
Thanks man! Heading to mammoth now
Sugar Bowl is a super underrated mountain. Grew up skiing here and have a family place about 5 mins down the road. It tends to get overshadowed by the likes of Palisades and Alpine. But, it has some of the most technical terrain in the Sierras. Great mountain with an old school 'time capsule' feel for a ski resort.
I can definitely see that! Went into the lodge for some water and was cool to see the older feel to it haha
That was beautiful, but scary. On the Sugar Bowl map, it looks like cliffs are all along the area where you were. A little fear keeps us cautious and safe.
I don’t know how people can afford skiing for one day anywhere without a ski pass. Good luck with fixing those boxes. 👍
yeah exactly! cliffs all along that mountain. and yup - thought it was gonna be $80 haha
@@LucasCatania17 Damn, even the smaller resorts with only a couple of lifts are over $80 these days, only places I've seen less are the single lift resorts on kinda flat hills. Most of the larger resorts, even those not affiliated with one of the big passes are $200-280 this season.
Wow crazy terrain! Loved the raw insight into your headspace and even more loved the positive self talk! We all have to be our own hype reel sometimes. You are a bad ass skier for sure.
Appreciate that Dan. Try to keep it real when I’m not feeling hot sometimes
Very cool to allow us to see you second guessing yourself, being a skier and surfer there are always those days where I'm oh sh!t, that's what keeps us going back for more, new to your adventures, been binge watching!
skiied there as a kid one of the best days and one of the most frighening days of my life. those rocks you managed to ski around.....yeah i went off those never seeing them never forget it the terrain prior didnt announce that madness was coming in any way shape or form. just watching the video brought back then pucker factor instantly. lol. had very similar self talk with myself the rest of that day lol. great video
Love the videos Lucas! Congrats on 30k thats a huge landmark! 50k here u come. Keep shredding.
Appreciate you jack!
Just came across your channel today, I'm addicted! The quality of these videos is insane, and proper got me missing skiing right now.. also jacket goggle combo is sick
Thanks dude! Stoked you like them
My legs are burning just watching you hit the choppy bumpy stuff. Great job, you always keep it interesting. Thanks.
Thanks Fred! Appreciate you watching
This is incredible! Love the content. The effort you put into these episodes really is amazing
Thanks Christopher!!
Awesome intro to one of my bucket list ok sugar. I were nailing it at the end. Tough decision on first entrance. I’ll give you a 96% on expert line choice terrain . I’ll be doing good to get over 90% my first time by mid judging a coulour drop direction like u nailed most in T or x drops. Change fast and in direction to. Tough place.
Grab some bailing wire. Thread back into plastic. Wrap bailing wire 3-4 times around the threaded metal then fish it between the swivel and back to where you started then twist wire together to secure. It should work until you can find some metal hardware that won't break.
Thanks dude. Just got it all fixed up and good as new
Sugar bowl is a mountain ive been skiing all of my life and it was amazing seeing you ski there. 16 yrs old just landed my first backflip there earlier this season. Love the tahoe content!
Damn dude that’s sick!!
The last few videos have been so amazing. The snow quality, wowoowowow! I can't imagine how much fun you've had!
It’s been incredible!
Lucas this is one of the best vids u have ever made, this was sooooo good, the cinematics, skiing, voice over... perfect, i literally got chills watching it, 100k baby letsss go!!
sick song too, it fit in perfect
Thanks bro!! Stoked you liked it man
The music is so good, and the views, and the stoke, and the elks - this one has everything
Thank you jeff!
Glad you made to my home mountain! So fun to see you rip lines I have to pick my way down, and some lines I don't try! HA! You're right about knowing where the cliffs are... there are a few spots where the exposure is no joke. Too bad Crow's wasn't running for you... you'd love those steep tree runs over there (far skiers left off Disney lift).
Sorry you got nailed with a full price ticket... like others have said, a bunch of us could've hooked you up with a buddy pass for half off. Next time!
Thanks Brian! Would love to try the glades over at crows next time
Hey man - it was so helpful and cool to hear you talk through the difficulties of some of these runs, your judgement calls, and self talk/encouragement. I'm a younger skier and have been in a situation or two on the mountain asking "can/should I do this?", and it's super helpful to hear someone as seasoned as you exercising wisdom and safety ❤
Thanks Julia. Definitely gotta be safe first. Keep shredding!
Sick terrain and video! Great and as always, very entertaining
Thank you Ted!
Sugar bowl is awesome...and in the summer, the ski area across the road Donner Ski Ranch, turns into a GNARLY disc golf course with a great view of Sugar Bowl. That whole Donner area is so pretty
I was wondering what that ski ranch was! Beautiful area up there
Great video....I see all the work you are doing.... Setting up shots.....I appreciate the effort and final product. I ski patrolled for 20years at alpine meadows. Tahoe was good to me. And you to....#stokeelklives
Haha stoke elk will always live! Thanks pat
I really like the cinematography very crisp and clean. Great skiing a-lot of those runs look pretty hard.
Thanks dude! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Love your content Lucas, alsoo recommended your channel to another person I met on a ski trip!
Thanks so much !!
Nice meeting you Lucas. Have a great rest of your season.
nice meeting you man!
I love the pep talk you gave yourself.
Thanks man
Great video to have an idea on how a black diamond downhill looks like. Thank you for sharing it and I understant all the extra effort keeping the video gear "rolling" properly. It looked super challenging avoiding cliffs there, be carefully enjoying the beauty of nature :)
Love Tahoe Truckee ! Been going up there and skiing in that are for over 10 years❤
its such a beautiful place!
100% understand your hesitations in this vid. It's a delicate balance between the risk and reward of skiing, especially with a brand new resort. Plenty more days on the sticks this season 💪
Thanks so much dude. Totslly right. Lot of season ahead too
Ahhh I skied there the same day and offered previously in a comment to hook you up with a buddy tickets 🙂 Bummed I didn't see you but dude, great job skiing the terrain you did. The terrain at The Bowl is no joke. Great video as always, great job capturing the spirit of the resort.
Thanks so much dude. Hope you had a killer day
Great video bro, I especially liked the thumbnail and on this one, keep it up, congrats on 30k!
Thank you bro!
SB Rocks. Good to know that some of that stuff freaks out great skiers.
Good to know I'm not the only skier that talks to myself/gets in my own head...haha.
For sure man. Do it all the time hah
these videos make me so hyped to go ski, love the content
Awesome riley! Love to hear that
You've really made me want to try a wider ski. I've never been on anything wider than 106 (which did not cut it this week in the cottonwood resorts). Thanks for another awesome episode!
Definitely need a 116ish for those deep days in the cottonwoods! Even a 120!
Nice Lucas....you landed at one of the last remaining gems of Tahoe area! Where all the locals ski now, and mostly only during the week. Mt Rose should be on your list too!!
Sick! Would love to check that place out too
It was pretty cool to hear how this terrain made someone experienced like yourself nervous. That must be some treacherous stuff! Even the camera made some look steep and I was oh boy haha
Haha it was no joke dude
That first drop in was scary! And I was just watching.
Prolly shouldn’t have done that run 1 haha
the quality of these videos and your dedication are unmatched man.
Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Winter Wonderland there epic Drops great job navigating them you got the experience 👍🏾
Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Bro I love the self pep talks!! I have been there snowboarding and skiing!! Nice to see I am not the only dude who gets freaked a bit from time to time! It's early in the season bro!! You kick-ass!
Thanks dude! Self talk is crucial
love your work Lucas.
Thank you Gary
Looks like an epic mountain. Definitely going to have to check it out!
Thanks man! Definitely worth the trip!
Good! Was hoping you'd cover Sugar Bowl as it is one of the few west coast resorts I've never made a vist to yet. Hopefully in the next couple of years.
Definitely worth a day or two there!
I see that this was posted a few hours ago so you may have come up with a fix. Suggestion. Get a length of all thread close to the dia. of the rod that broke. Bend an ell at either end of the rod who’s length matches the pivot points. Pull the two allen’s and put the ends facing out through the two pivot points. You may need some washers to space the pivots out a bit to allow movement. Use two nyloc bolts on the threaded ends to hold all thread to pivots. Re-install allen’s. This should work and last/hold up a lot better than original feeble design.
Thanks Tony!
Thanks for leaving the self-coaching part in. That's going to help a lot of people out
Thanks DC. Appreciate the continued support brother.
Congrats on 30k!
Thank you Brian
Make sure you hit Bear Valley. It’s on the way towards Sacramento. Fantastic skiing another small resort.
I’ll check it out!!
this vid is so good ima rewatch it real quick before school
i appreciate that bobbie. have fun at school man!
I used to ski over here, if you ever come back make sure you go to the palisades cliff area, if theres a lot of snow and its open
Haha there’s no way I could ski those
12:00 is what I tell myself going down a blue in Colorado lmao. There are different levels to this.
Hey man it’s all relative
Great video! Great work Lucas. I just finished skiing there at Sugar Bowl today lol! I went on all of the trails you went on. There are better trails for experts that you should've checked out!
Thank you man! Glad you had a good time
Sick day!!
You are ripping on those skis.
I bet if you showed the manager of the resort your channel, they would toss ya a ticket. You probably just made the best promo video Sugar Bowl has ever had.
Thank you Chaz 🙌🏽🙌🏽
The views looked amazing. I think if you had a local showing you all the sweet spots that would help. I haven't made it to Sugar Bowl yet. It has been on my list for years, but with it not being part of a pass, it is hard to justify the cost. Tahoe is very beautiful when the trees are all covered in snow.
Totally agree. Hard to justify the price of the pass for what you get. Rad mountain though!
Cool! This storm apparently got Utah good too, I just read that snowbasin got like 30 in in this storm
Yeah I saw Utah been getting hammered haha
Dude Suger Bowl is my favorite resort, I grew up skiing there but I do agree the prices are ridiculous, I got the icon pass a few years ago so I have been going to Alpine, as well as Deer valley (I hope to see you there over new years hahah) but next time if you come back to suger bowl I definitely recommend trying out crows peak and summit chair. Love the vids man keep it up!
Yes man woulda love to try crows but it wasn’t open yet!
Killer job man as always. I notice you may need a (new gloves fund :) Keep the positive stoke vibes going man.
Haha those are my special filming gloves
Looks like you found a hidden gem! Sick terrain
For sure bro! So gnarly
Lived in Tahoe for a 12 years and Sugar Bowl is my favorite place to ride. It'll definitely test you
I was at Sugar Monday, looks like you may have been there Tues?. I think you may have been quoted the buddy pass price-$81.. love your Chanel man keep up the good work. I'd say drive past Hevenly and get to kirkwood next.
Yup I went Tuesday. Lift ticket was brutal haha
30k congrats!
Thanks dude!!
just replace the clevis with a metal clevis and use a nut on the all thread to lock in the clevis.
Thank you!
Crazy line my man!! So rad
Thank you brother!!
@@LucasCatania17 I also try to hype myself with some positive self talk when i feel like i'm not skiing my best!! Glad I'm not the only one lol
You GOTTA go experience the k-factor over at Kirkwood! Have the local rippers show you around the mountain and you won't regret it!
I will man!
Your breakfast looked fantastic!
Haha so good dude
first time i boarded sugar bowl with my buddies was on a massive powder day. we went to silver belt just like you did but we got up to the edge of the cliff and had to unstrap and hike over because we weren't prepared to make the giant leap lol.
Yeah the cliffs there are no joke…
I hear you about forking over for a pass not on your Ikon or epic. I only have epic, gonna be a little hard on the brain to put out $250 for Deer Valley when I get to PC! Ha! Sugar Bowl looks awesome! Great vid as always!
$250 for DV is nuts!! Anyone with an ikon buddy pass?
Soo sick!!🤯🥵
Thanks dude
The Palisades at Sugarbowl are as gnarly as anything I’ve skied.
Holy Crap, too steep for my blood!! Be safe Lucas
thank you susan!
I Love sugar bowl!!!
It was beautiful!!
sugar bowl is awesome. my home mountain. choice mountain for all of tahoe
Sick home mountain bro!
“Get out of your head man!”…..that resonated with me.
That warm up run was impressive af hahaha damn
Haha thanks Alex!
That place looks nice, is there any freeway noise? I've never been there but been looking at it a lot... great shots, and thanks for all the great videos showing all these places! Good cinematography and editing. Tahoe can definitely be advanced with stuff that will kill you so you have to just take it easy and just have fun and remember there's always the backcountry!!! I hope to do a backcountry ride some day. Thanks again. And I hooked you up with CW for your next time in town if you want.
Thanks man! No freeway noise that I noticed really. All good up there!
No freeway near enough to hear but you definitely hear the train horn a couple times a day. After years of skiing Sierra at Tahoe I'm starting to fall in love with sugarbowl.
Was just at heavenly this week a lot closed but it’s now opened so much snow
Gonna hit it on my way back
I r sooo making me miss skiing. Sadly my knee is still in bad shape. I’m hoping I can get they cleared up asap ❤
Sorry to hear that Steena. Hopefully you can get out there this season
My local ski resort, so a fun place
Tahoe is Life!
its dope man!
Should of asked the local to show you around haha 🤙🏼
Dude, you should reach out to the marketing dept at any mountain you go to, sure they'd hook you up with free passes given your following!
Maybe dude. Gotta get bigger I think
“Prolly shouldn’t have done that” you nailed it though.
haha thanks rob!
