Sick walk-thru! I'm on the same JJ's and I love when people tell me they need to get their bases fixed after a tiny scratch. I'm with you - I'll ski a ski until it's a noodle full of core shots..haha
Dude! You’ve taught me so much about GoPros along my journey. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise. Thanks for watching man. 🙏🏽
If hype is about snowboarding you are the one unlucky getting skies and the arena, that is meant for indoor sports. Mittens are a common item for any mountain conquer. It's a power grip usually used to deflect incoming force beam.
Thanks for sharing on the equipment. While I don't own any, I like the stuff I've seen from ZipLine. We have similar outlooks when it comes to clothing- Below is what I use. (These work across the entire season including warmer spring days.) BASE LAYERS- BOTTOMS - Costco has great low cost underwear leggings (named 32 Degrees). If weather is below 10 degrees, I'll put on a pair of "Middle weight" fleece pants over the underwear. I've skied at 2 degrees (Burrr!!!) and stayed warm the entire time. Thick fleece is an option for those people who get cold easily. TOPS- For upper base layers, Costco (32 Degrees) base layer. From there I use a I use 1/4 zip T-neck technical tops. I wear a Spyder full zip sweater. Depending on overall outside temps, I'll use a North Face Apex vest. It's wind stopper so it keeps all the heat in when necessary, and will easily unzip to let the heat out. It also does not hold cat hair or lint like fleece. On warmer days (26 Degrees & up) I'll skip the sweater and just use the vest. GLOVES-I use glove liners when below 15 Degrees. I have a Bula Balaclava I'll wear when it's really cold. OUTER LAYERS Shells only - (Gore-tex or other similar). Down stuff / Insulated is not versatile. If you need more heat retention, layer up more! PANTS- Full side zip shell pants. 2 different versions. Bibs & Hip height. When things get hot you can always vent from the top of the hip down. Also, It's so nice to come in from a full day of sliding and just peel the bottoms off like a stripper! My bibs have a "Ass escape hatch" a zipper that starts mid thigh, and "horshoes" over the buttocks. It allows the wearer to drop trow in a hurry without having to remove jackets, or suspenders. This is also handy when having to use outdoor sani cans. JACKETS- Full venting (pit zips), detachable hood, & powder skirt, front zip, with internal thumb strap wrist gaiters. When coming in with wet snow, the best is a simple front zip. You don't have to drag the wet stuff over your face and head as with pull-over types. GLOVES- Again I go with the best deal. I use the Head gloves from Costco. They also has a zipper pouch that will hold a "Hot Hands" heat patch. I've never needed it, but hear its nice on super cold days. Each year, I buy 2 pair, as they are under ~$20 and easy to have multiple spares for cold / wet days. POLES- Goode Carbon fiber pencil shafts! Unbreakable, light, feathers! Always get the large baskets! All the best, Mo-
Virginia skier here I am admittedly more excited to watch your videos about Utah skiing then to ski on the partly melted ice pellets we call snow out here, either way here’s to a great ski season!
montec has grown so much as a company. i remember when i was one of the few people on the mountain reppin montec and now so many people do. great video man. we're hitting telluride and whistler this season 🤘
Zipline gear is pretty epic! Love their XT Goggles and their World cup Ski bag. Great video Lucas, this year has been so amazing to see from your lens and I can't wait for what's to come!
I recommend merino wool for everything with direct contact to the body. I most often sweat pretty strong and the merino just takes all the smell, I can wear it for prob. a week without it smelling sweaty. Socks would be my number 1 upgrade, solid merino ones dont even cost that much and the difference was huge for me.
Hey Lucas, I'm ready! Bought a new pair of skis, Elan Ripstick 96! Can't wait to try them out. Park City from dec 28 thru jan 5 or there about! Looking forward to the vids!
I'm an intermediate skier at best and I bought a 120 flex boot last year and have used it for my last 5 or 6 days on the mountain. Seeing you're using a 110 flex and considering a 120 tells me I aimed too high....:) I just found your channel a couple of days ago and I've really enjoyed your videos. Keep 'em coming. Great content.
After watching your videos last year I went with the Zipline Podium goggles for my wife and I. The guy who owns that place is super cool and he sent me additional lenses for free and warranted stuff that was not working quite right. Super cool guy and I highly recommend the goggles. The magnetic lense is amazing for dealing different lighting conditions. They’re rad. Cheers brother.
thats awesome to hear man. chuck is a great guy and is one of the reasons why i feel good supporting the company. im stoked youve been enjoying your purchase!
If you're heading up to B.C. this season, I recommend hitting up Kicking Horse seeing as you love the steeps. I also recommend Fernie and Whitewater for the most pow. La Nina is predicated for the Pacific Northwest which will result in tons of snow for Schweitzer and Whitefish but basically all of the northern Rockies!
Loved the video mate! I'm not that great but I rented twin tips for the first time this year. Hoping to really improve my park skills and hit a rail! Super stoked to go skiing this year and watch your journey too!
Seems like everyone is ready for skiing 😅 - As always, thanks for sharing the valuable information! Big fan of Montec ! Tried getting poles from Zipline late last season however they didn’t have my length. Will look soon for a pair. ✌️
Excited for the ski season, unfortunately i won't be able to ski at all this year, but i'll get to experience what i'm missing out on through your channel.
I ended up replacing my montec jacket, didn't realize how inconvenient an asymmetrical zipper is.If you get warm you can't leave your jacket un-done. Had the Dune jacket, also annoying if you wear bibs and half to use the bathroom, have to take helmet (big head, helmet didn't fit through) and jacket off to bring bibs down because it doesn't unzip all the way.
That is definitely a negative about this setup. The asymmetrical zipper takes some getting used to and I’m still not really a fan of it. The bathroom situation is rough haha
Love the JJ's. Started using them when they first came out and went through 3 pairs (mounted with telemark). My only critique is that toward the end of a powder day when things get a bit skied out, they are easily deflected. Went to the (slightly narrower) M-Free 108's and that cured that problem. But if that's not an issue, the JJ's are great!
just found your channel over the summer, really cool! youve been keeping me going until the season gets here! i need skiing now lmao!! park city in december here we go!!!
Agreed with your thoughts on Armada SKI durability. I run the 2021 ARV 106s and they are bomb proof! I took multiple big hits to rocks, and even thought I blew out edges. All that was needed was some p tex and they were good. Looking forward to putting more seasons on them.
I’m newer to skiing and now looking to upgrade all of my layers and goggles etc. Too many options out there it’s overwhelming, but I’m a huge fan of your ski videos so I’m going to just get your setup dress wise
Zipline!!!!! The goggles are legit love them - folks should try out the travel ski bag too. Video has me pumped for ski season, just booked whistler for march.
Let’s go brother 🤙thanks for your vids. Coming from California to Park city in December so I have watched all your videos related to there and Deer Valley. Much appreciated, thank you.
Thanks for the upload. Enjoy these videos and you talking about what you use. It gets me excited for the upcoming season. I was wondering what backpack do you use to ski in?
Excited for this season! Any way we'll be able to keep up and know where you're gunna be? I'm gunna be all over the Epic and Ikon this season and would love to say whats up!
I got like 5 different gators and i just can seems to not fog my goggles.i may try to be old school and man up and just fucking rock the beard till like -30 celsius .God, i can wait to ski.
So hype to see the content this winter. Just subbed, gonna be out in Big Sky for winter let me take down some gnarly chutes?! Cheers to a healthy and powder filled season YEWWW
Good video man! Would love to see your fully camera gear setup for the season as well. Always curious on how you use all the stuff you have in the description.
You can also use florescent surveyor's tape as a cheap alternative. Toss a roll into your gear bag at the beginning of the season and never worry about not having it... Tie 6-8ft it to the bindings or brakes, and then stuff them up your pant leg. Works every time.
Absolutely stoked to watch you ski this year brother! Really interesting learning about all your gear. Appreciate you sharing that. Any changes to your camera or filming wardrobe for the skiing clogs/videos? Still using the R series cameras and GoPro Max?
so excited to start the ski season soon. unfortunately i won't be able to travel to the west this year, but it's looking like the season will start pretty early here and will hopefully last long. can't wait for your winter content!!
@@brandonwilliam2618 NJ, but lake placid NY is basically my second home. i'm also not too far from killington, gore, sugarbush, stowe, and smuggs and recently it's been barely 50 during the day (high 20s to low 40s overnight) up in NY and VT which is pretty cold for mid october. some of them are already receiving/making snow and could open before november
I just honestly did ski lesson for the first time and after learning the fundamentals it was amazing and I then went on like 7 times and honestly I wanna go again so bad.. its like a hobby just ignites in me or something.. Honestly alot people hated the instructors because she was strict but I lowkey likes her because if she wasn't strict I don't think I would know any fundamentals or do it correctly. What a good start of my ski journey. I wondered, do you go every winter or how does it work?
@@assassin7250 that was actually exactly how I felt when I re-learned how to ski after not skiing for about 6 years or so. But to answer your question, yes, I ski every winter, but I often have to make time for it, but skiing has, throughout the years, become of my favorite hobbies if not my favorite. Thus, I typically try to clear up my schedule in the fall and early winter so that I am able to get in as much skiing as possible. For reference, this was my typical winter schedule after I got back into skiing: January - Not much skiing, but maybe a day trip or two to a nearby mountain February - 1 trip to a mountain and stay there for 2-3 nights March - as a beginner, I never skied much in March but I would go for 1 day to a nearby mountain if it snowed This was just my schedule as a "beginner" skier, and it looks much different now. However, most of it depends on where you live and whether or not any mountains are in close proximity of you. For instance, my half-sister lives in North Carolina, and she loves skiing but North Carolina is a pretty flat state that receives little snowfall annually so she isn't able to ski anywhere nearby. She'll often fly to Colorado once each winter to ski there.
I have the JJ 116's as well, super playful in powder, but honestly didn't love the stability in any other condition. Curious on your experience with stability since you use them for all conditions? especially with how wide they are. I feel like you would really enjoy a ski that has like a 108 underfoot (check out the new Dynastar Free 108s).

cant wait for ski season!!! super excited to watch your journey this year
thank you ella!
Season already started! 😏
If hype is about snowboarding you are the one unlucky getting skies and the arena, that is meant for indoor sports. Mittens are a common item for any mountain conquer. It's a power grip usually used to deflect incoming force beam.
!!!!
Glove Liners?!!! That is crazy! My fingers and toes get so cold. Good for you!
hah yeah definitely blessed to run warm!
Thanks for sharing on the equipment. While I don't own any, I like the stuff I've seen from ZipLine.
We have similar outlooks when it comes to clothing- Below is what I use. (These work across the entire season including warmer spring days.)
BASE LAYERS-
BOTTOMS -
Costco has great low cost underwear leggings (named 32 Degrees). If weather is below 10 degrees, I'll put on a pair of "Middle weight" fleece pants over the underwear. I've skied at 2 degrees (Burrr!!!) and stayed warm the entire time. Thick fleece is an option for those people who get cold easily.
TOPS-
For upper base layers, Costco (32 Degrees) base layer. From there I use a I use 1/4 zip T-neck technical tops. I wear a Spyder full zip sweater. Depending on overall outside temps, I'll use a North Face Apex vest. It's wind stopper so it keeps all the heat in when necessary, and will easily unzip to let the heat out. It also does not hold cat hair or lint like fleece. On warmer days (26 Degrees & up) I'll skip the sweater and just use the vest.
GLOVES-I use glove liners when below 15 Degrees.
I have a Bula Balaclava I'll wear when it's really cold.
OUTER LAYERS
Shells only - (Gore-tex or other similar). Down stuff / Insulated is not versatile. If you need more heat retention, layer up more!
PANTS-
Full side zip shell pants. 2 different versions. Bibs & Hip height. When things get hot you can always vent from the top of the hip down. Also, It's so nice to come in from a full day of sliding and just peel the bottoms off like a stripper! My bibs have a "Ass escape hatch" a zipper that starts mid thigh, and "horshoes" over the buttocks. It allows the wearer to drop trow in a hurry without having to remove jackets, or suspenders. This is also handy when having to use outdoor sani cans.
JACKETS-
Full venting (pit zips), detachable hood, & powder skirt, front zip, with internal thumb strap wrist gaiters. When coming in with wet snow, the best is a simple front zip. You don't have to drag the wet stuff over your face and head as with pull-over types.

Each year, I buy 2 pair, as they are under ~$20 and easy to have multiple spares for cold / wet days.
POLES-
Goode Carbon fiber pencil shafts! Unbreakable, light, feathers! Always get the large baskets!
All the best,

Haha well hopefully you can get out west then! Here’s to a great season!
Awesome setup dude!!!
Thanks homie
stoke at an all time high!! it's almost ski season baby!
yessir!!
montec has grown so much as a company. i remember when i was one of the few people on the mountain reppin montec and now so many people do. great video man. we're hitting telluride and whistler this season 🤘
Only Jerries, and this guy, wear montec. 95% of the time people wearing montec suck at skiing.
Who cares man?
Ya who cares. If it works for you just shred and be happy. Let keep the fashion police out of it
Zipline gear is pretty epic! Love their XT Goggles and their World cup Ski bag. Great video Lucas, this year has been so amazing to see from your lens and I can't wait for what's to come!
thanks brother! couldnt do it without your support!
Let’s go first ski video since last season let’s go can’t wait for the season. Keep up the good work
thanks cooper!
You’re the man I watch your videos all the time including your ski videos they make my day
Lol. Super awesome info. It’s gonna be a great season. Many blessings. I prefer groomed but pow is nice at times. Have fun. Tnx.
thanks steena! definitely shaping up to be a good season!
I have a DOPE coat, basically its the same company as Montec and honestly I really love it
That’s awesome! Stoked you like it

You definitely need more cameras.. slacker! bahaha!

Excited for the ski season, unfortunately i won't be able to ski at all this year, but i'll get to experience what i'm missing out on through your channel.
bummer man! thanks for riding along though!
its been amazing to waych this channel grow just so wholesome. Ive been here since 3k

My go-to which I use most of the time is the Armada tracer 108 with dynafit rotation 12, highly recommend them.
nice man! those are great skis.

🤘🤘 Stoked for the season! I almost picked up the JJ’s but wanted to try the J skis The Friends. We will see how they go!
awesome man good luck with them!
You should definitely do a dedicated review of the JJs!!
noted!!

yes dude!! people are missing out! the ski bag is sick. and dope! ill be in whistler hopefully in january/february!
Stoked for this year's ski season and your ski content. Wishing you a healthy ski season filled with plenty of snow!
thank you gerard!!
Let’s go brother 🤙thanks for your vids. Coming from California to Park city in December so I have watched all your videos related to there and Deer Valley. Much appreciated, thank you.
all these clips make me think you should do a highlight video of the season!
i think im going to!
New ski season!!! Get hype
lets goo
lets go lucas!!!! i cannot wait for ski videos again
thanks homie!!
Louis come back to Mount Baldy near the end of March we will ski the corn snow steeps looking down to the ocean
Have you ever tried pivots? Definitely my favorite binding I've been on
ive never tried them but i know a lot of people love them. they are a great binding
Thanks for the upload. Enjoy these videos and you talking about what you use. It gets me excited for the upcoming season. I was wondering what backpack do you use to ski in?
i either use the gopro seeker backpack or the lowepro powder 500 depending on if i am hiking or not!
IT'S ALMSOT TIME, THANKS FOR THE VIDEO!
For sure!
Excited for this season! Any way we'll be able to keep up and know where you're gunna be? I'm gunna be all over the Epic and Ikon this season and would love to say whats up!
for sure! the live streams (every wednesday evening) are a great way to stay in touch real time with our travels. also connecting on IG.
I got like 5 different gators and i just can seems to not fog my goggles.i may try to be old school and man up and just fucking rock the beard till like -30 celsius .God, i can wait to ski.
definitely a tough situation with gaiters and fog! good thing ya got the beard to keep you warm!
So hype to see the content this winter. Just subbed, gonna be out in Big Sky for winter let me take down some gnarly chutes?! Cheers to a healthy and powder filled season YEWWW
awesome man enjoy big sky! sick resort!
excited for the new ski videos coming this season. Love your videos man!
thanks john!
Good video man! Would love to see your fully camera gear setup for the season as well. Always curious on how you use all the stuff you have in the description.
thanks man! will be making a video on that topic shortly.
@@LucasCatania17 Sweet, looking forward to it!
Love these type of videos.
Glad you like them!
So excited to be able to watch your ski videos again!! LFG
thanks bro!
I didn’t even know ski straps where a thing! I’ve lost a ski before in 3ft deep snow and had to dig around for like 20 mins to find it
yes they are crucial for those deep pow days!
You can also use florescent surveyor's tape as a cheap alternative. Toss a roll into your gear bag at the beginning of the season and never worry about not having it...
Tie 6-8ft it to the bindings or brakes, and then stuff them up your pant leg. Works every time.
So psyched for the season!! And can’t wait for ski content! Your bag looks sick!
Hell yeah man! Thanks for being a member of the stoke squad bro
Absolutely stoked to watch you ski this year brother! Really interesting learning about all your gear. Appreciate you sharing that. Any changes to your camera or filming wardrobe for the skiing clogs/videos? Still using the R series cameras and GoPro Max?
thanks man! i will be making a video on the camera setup but for the most part still using the same stuff, yes.
Considering buying the Armada JJs, would really appreciate a proper Review.
Did someone say Ski season?? Stoked!! Although a bit odd when the valley is still hitting 75 daily. Hope to see you out there Lucas!
its been a beautiful fall though!
luckily the forecasts are predicting a massive drop in temps by thursday out west
Just glove liners! That's crazy, what model are they?
Can't wait for the season and the epic stoke vids from your travels. Lets go!!!
thanks man!!
these equipment manufacturers would be smart to sponsor you.
Nice reviews!
thanks charlie!
Good stuff Lucas!! Ski szn is almost upon us 🤙🏻
yes bro! about a month
@@LucasCatania17 yeeeewwwww
IM READY TO SKI
nice man!
Let’s go!!!! Ski season is coming..awesome as always brother
yessir! thanks billy! stoked to see you again
we must be getting close !
within a month or so!
great vid bro keep it up ;)
thanks man!
Great video man, can’t wait for the season to start!
hell yea thanks erik!
Ayoo brother get some misfit gloves for hot days they’re sick.. Kurt uses my old ones for biking in fall and spring
I love september/october when you can smell the next season
fall definitely is a great season!
so excited to start the ski season soon. unfortunately i won't be able to travel to the west this year, but it's looking like the season will start pretty early here and will hopefully last long. can't wait for your winter content!!
thanks adam!

Great video man! Just to know, what's your weight and what DIN are you currently using on the 16 bindings?
i weigh about 175lbs and my DIN is around 12.
I swear, my guy is gonna hit 30k by the end of the ski season.
that would be great!
If you wear a cotton T-shirt while skiing, you are making a big mistake. Cotton is really bad for cold temps as soon as it gets sweaty.
yeah i know. been doing it my whole life
I enjoy these videos, keep em coming
thanks kristen!
Love your energy! Can't wait for the season to get here.
still a hella underrated youtube
appreciate that man!

Welcome Back 🙏🏻🌨
been here all year!
@@LucasCatania17 I just meant the skiing vlogs. I have enjoyed all your travels this summer as well.
Are your bindings center mounted? I’m guessing not but the video kinda makes it hard to tell. Just curious.
they are factory recommended which tends to be a bit rear of center mounted.
The jj is the best ski invented.
i agree!
Do you have any recommendations for a cheap(er) mountain ski for jumps, rails, pow etc...?
Do your coats have a ski skirt? I’ll be working at Alta this season and not sure whether to get one or not
is that the thing you put over your butt so it doesnt get wet on the lift? mine do not.
What is the backpack you use when you ski? Curious cause ive been looking for one and just trying to get some ideas.
Those dang telemarketers.
hahahah
Yes sir! :)
yuppp
What mountains are on the agenda this season?
gonna be focusing on the PNW, British Columbia and alberta this year.
I have the JJ 116's as well, super playful in powder, but honestly didn't love the stability in any other condition. Curious on your experience with stability since you use them for all conditions? especially with how wide they are. I feel like you would really enjoy a ski that has like a 108 underfoot (check out the new Dynastar Free 108s).
Nice vid Lucas! What model turtle fur neck gaiter is that?
I’m actually not sure haha
Any chance you are going to head to Whitefish, MT this winter?

Which backpack do you use while skiing?
i either use the gopro seeker backpack or the lowepro powder 500 depending on if i am hiking or not.
