GoPro Ski: Backcountry Skiing in Chile - The Magic of the Super C

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ก.ย. 2024
  • Join GoPro athlete Chris Davenport as he takes us to one of the best lines in the world. Nestled in the Chilean Andes is Ski Portillo, an old mining town turned world-renowned ski resort home to some of South America’s best terrain. Just outside the ski area boundary is a couloir called the Super C. It’s a huge climb from the ski area, but it all pays off with a 1,706-meter (5,600 ft.) descent.
    Many film crews use helicopters to get to lines like the Super C, due to heavy camera gear. But it’s a rite of passage to earn your turns on the Super C and in fact, taking a helicopter isn’t an option. By shooting 100 percent on GoPro, our media team was the first professional production team to climb and document the Super C.
    Huge thanks to Ski Portillo for showing us some of the best skiing in the Southern Hemisphere. With significant early-season snowfall and the continuation of El Niño, Portillo is shaping up to have another great season. www.skiportillo.com/en
    Shot 100% on the HERO4® camera from ‪GoPro.com.

    • @ChrisDavenport
      @ChrisDavenport 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Hi Joe, we actually skied the top part one at a time and then skied the bottom part together once the stuff had dispersed. The maritime snowpack in Chile makes it very safe even right after a storm and really the only hazard is stuff. So once that is managed, it's usually game on. But thank you for your thought to safety. Always important to think about.

    • @drv_channel
      @drv_channel 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fair enough, I'm glad to know you're considering avy safety and not taking the attitude of "it's only sidecountry" that occurs much too often. Does this resort still control outside the resort boundaries? (Most resorts don't unless inbounds runs are in the fall line).
      Looks like an amazingly fun chute to ski, I hope I can make it down to Chile at some point and enjoy some of that prime terrain.
