@@alexxela754 the sport is dangerous, thats the nature of it. If you dont want these professional athletes pushing the limit of the sport and their bodies then they shouldnt of put this event on in the first place.. the judges just play favorites
I love comparing the videos of amature skiers attempting Corbets with these pros. The skill difference between the pros and the rest of us is so enormous, so hard to grasp just how incredible these athletes are.
I've said this before in a few comments, but I've been skiing & boarding for over 40 years. Just standing on top of Corbett's is heart stopping. To actually launch yourself into it? You have my total RESPECT.
51 yr old lifelong mogul/freestyle skier here...never imagined us having to dig jumps out with our boots & launch a couple times before Ski-Patrol came around & broke them down to this! Mad respects! JH is a special mountain, ridden it once...or should I say, it let me ride it? This is the best single season contest on the planet! God Bless you all!
50 yr old here, I remember those days. Do a 360 and risk getting your pass yanked! We were all kinda uptight when snowboards came on the hill (I think I was a sr in high school) but they sure did open the way to allowing freestyle at the resort!
My friends on ski patrol used to let us hit corbetts first on big snow days. Never saw anything like this guy. We always aimed for the middle. This guy ...whole new level. Wow guy
It's a dangerous sport, all of us that do 'extreme' sports do what we can to assess and mitigate risk but ultimately accept it as part of what we love to do. Not sure if the waiter meant you don't see deaths or injuries plastered over media outlets but you absolutely hear about them.
Year 1 kings and queens I thought yeah I could compete with some of these guys. Now that I’m the same age as most of the riders fuck No I could not compete
Yeah majority of the skiers back slapped and call it a stomp. Gota be embarrassed deep inside when the claim it as a stomp. If a snowboarder butt slapped and then stood back up that's called a crash.
Hans Mindnich with the 360 wallride is definitely the craziest thing here
And he didn’t win. What a joke
That and Trevor doing a fell send was sick. Hans is hard to beat though. Stomped it sooo clean.
Maybe they don’t want people to die so they don’t credit this type of dangerous trick. I mean, jumping into a cliff wall😅
Still can’t believe he didn’t win for the wall ride!!!

Whoever the judges were for Hans’s 360 wallride year (when he came in 2nd) must NEVER EVER JUDGE AGAIN
The athletes judge each other….
The sit ski launching it into corbetts is absolutely crazy!
Fking dirty tapping that rock on a snowboard with that kind of drop.

@@teknik12k Exactly & no inverts in Mogul Comps.

Which guy
The wall 360 is proof that there's a bias towards skiers. No way dude shouldn't have won.
he didnt win??? As a skier that's actually mind boggling to me dude
amazing. its great to see the event grow / evolve
Dope song 🤩 wish it was available somewhere online so I could ski to it
As a skier the wall ride was mental
I was in Jackson last week, our waiter told us that we never hear about all the broken backs and deaths from this extreme skiing. 😢

That wallride... holy crap. I mean... what
All of these skiers and riders are amazing!!! this gives me hope that when i do make it out to Jackson I will make the drop.
It's a LOT bigger than they make it look. There was NO way I was going to do it.
Respect. Wow!
Can we all take some time to bring up AGAIN the travesty of Hans not winning that year with the back 3 wallride? :D
who won?
I remember watching this last year from a ski hill tv (I'm pretty sure)...
INSANE
The leg strength
Mach looney into the abyss. Double back is now chill? The skill level of skiers today is just bananas.
Amazing please take care 👌
Sams dub cork 10 is the gnarliest trick put down yet
when is the next queens and kings contest ?
How to select a team for special ops.
Sir you gave them rifles but will they “send it”?
Oh, they will send it. Don’t you worry about that.
Trevor Kennison (spelling?) … WOW! Well done!
Trevor Kennison! LFG!!!!
hole 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
WALL RIDE TF
Prince and princess of Corbits?
Hans is a winner in my book
3:35 skis touching helmet thats fucking insane
For me, this hits different. BECAUSE I SKI ON THIS MOUNTAIN and my ski teacher knows Veronica paulson
No stream this year is very lame!
Year 1 kings and queens I thought yeah I could compete with some of these guys. Now that I’m the same age as most of the riders fuck No I could not compete
Hans Mindnich's back 3 wallride didn't even win. Judges were too focused on skiiers. Such a shame
The atheletes judge themselves….
How about some 2023 footage....wtf
Why are the men's tricks so much better than the women's?
Idk
men are always better professional athletes than women. simple as
"Just to have Travis's energy there" wow you guys are so corny.
Yeah majority of the skiers back slapped and call it a stomp. Gota be embarrassed deep inside when the claim it as a stomp. If a snowboarder butt slapped and then stood back up that's called a crash.
this aint a freestyle comp brah
Why is a double for a guy mellow and a single for a ladie the craziest thing seen on skis? Isn't twisting and turning pretty equal opportunity?
Because this is real and not a disney movie
Hilarious. But yeah, no disrespect to these ladies though. Because they would kick my ass 😂
@@rt-uh6mt mine too, when it comes to skiing.
Kings and Queens is the worst.
You go to Jackson hoping to drop in and it is shut off for weeks during the best part of the season.
A "career", eh? Within a few years all of you will be forgotten. Except in your own minds.
Go play with yourself
Wow, when it looks steep on camera, hold your breath and start praying.
Exactly. In real life it is death defying..
