@@Ekim1976 Thank you 🙏 Yeah honestly it’s weird, I’ve tried softer skis but always preferred the stiffer like the enforcer. I hope next season I understand myself as a skier more, there was a lot of different variables this season but I did find a flow towards the end of the season. Around the end of March I improved my form a lot better and also bought the Armada ARV 116 which is a little softer. Can’t wait for this next season to really put it to the test, thanks for commenting 💪 stay tuned

Thank you bro 🙏 more on the way!

You already know it 😎

@@tchillmindofbruh thank you!

@@themichaelbilello : je ne maîtrise pas assez l'anglais pour m'exprimer dans cette langue. Ton commentaire traduit par Google Translate est parfaitement compréhensible.

Thank you!! I was struggling this day and I couldn't really figure out why. Next season I'm definitely going to start doing lessons again. I've done a few full day lessons in Crested Butte, Colorado and saw significant improvements from them. I definitely also some saw major improvements later on in the season for myself so I'm totally psyched to pick up from where I left off 🤙 thanks for commenting and joining the channel! ⛷

We hit Taos pretty incredibly during this trip, I think the snow quality is some of the best you can find anywhere! Really stoked to hit this resort again with more experience under my belt as this trip was a couple of years ago

the only part better was the double backflip off the 60ft cliff I did 😎

ik it used to be bad 😅

I create my own original cinematics, transitions, and experiences. I get inspiration from Lucas for sure, but saying there is "no originality" in this just ain't true. Aside from the thumbnails that I'm creating better / more original designs for, the actual content from my video is inspired by how I felt it should be when I was actually skiing this day. Obviously I get ideas from him that I think help my videos but that doesn't mean I'm just shamelessly copying his videos bit by bit.

@@themichaelbilello the way u section up ur videos and ur filming style is literally the same, you literally have the same section he does called cinematic, and u literally made a video glazing him when u met him, ur a fanboy

@@1resos Oh so you're upset that I met him, gotcha 😂 I heard going outside and being friendly is a good way to meet people... also, Lucas isn't the first person to create cinematics, I study B-Roll from other people too. The only accurate thing you've said is that we have similar styles of sectioning our videos which I took some inspiration (it's not a bad thing) for. also also, learn some other words than "literally". You used it 3 times in one sentence. k thats it

@f1zzerton There is no originality in your dumb comment. If you're going to hate on peoples content while contributing nothing yourself at least learn to spell and use punctuation.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!

yeah for sure keep going!

Snowbird is 100% my favorite mountain. Even though the powder days can be absolutely chaotic, it's an unforgettable experience! Been dreaming of a proper powder day rope drop off Little Cloud! Keep on ripping 🤙

Thank you! Everyone up there was super cool. Glad you enjoyed!

It's up in 4K now, I think it just takes a bit longer to process. You probably saw it within the first 15 minutes it was uploaded

Oh, maybe I watched it too early now it’s showing HD :)

@@Mikalfulton awesome! hope you enjoyed!

I gotta say that this is probably the best ski for me or at least one of them. I've tried softer skis / many demo days to figure out what suits me best and from experience I definitely say I prefer this ski over all of them. I also have an ARMADA ARV 116 which I love on powder days that I think is a little bit of a softer ski. Every ski definitely does have it's strengths and weaknesses though but as an all mountain / freeride ski for me it's definitely what I feel the most comfortable with. Also this day isn't the best judgment just due to bad leg pain I had. Some of my other videos like at Revelstoke or Lake Louise definitely give a better indication of the skiing. I've goofed around just looking at other skis for fun but haven't really felt any need to change anything. My issue primarily is leg strength which I've been working out every day on the off season so far to improve, and skill which is something I try to improve in everyday and that naturally comes over time.

This video was filmed a couple of years ago. The bobby chute was still not above my ability at this point but it was a big challenge so I don’t regret anything. I think it’s important (at least for myself) to push my boundaries. Don’t really remember why I was having so much trouble getting my skis on but I haven’t really thought about it too much since then, I just want to get a better run through there. And no I don’t drive like that because I didn’t even have my drivers license at that point. I don’t really think it’s a big deal if I decided I want to chill in my ski boots for that long ride.

I definitely do get some inspiration from him! I always try to have as much of an original feel to my videos as possible but the cinematics and editing style that he uses is something I like to have throughout my videos too! thanks for commenting

At this time I would say was my second season really getting the grip of true "expert terrain". If I were making this video today I would definitely have a much smoother lap in the chute, in fact I have a video skiing "Funnel" from last season where I noticed major improvement in my traversing and skiing. My dad is responsible for teaching me how to ski and I gotta give lot's of credit to lessons I've taken at this mountain! Also, you're definitely right about traversing being the scariest part of skiing for the most part! Especially at this mountain...

Thanks! I'm definitely going to take your advice on that, my dad was with me for half of the hike to make sure I got up there ok (he didn't want to do it because he was still recovering from an injury). The entrance was sketch though so I'll either have him or a friend hop in there with me next time!

@@themichaelbilello Dad must be an awesome skier

@@saintrroy for sure! he’s definitely taken it a lot slower the last few years to not get injured again but if that’s what it takes to stay healthy and ski for as long as possible then its all good!

Dude, it seriously makes a huge difference! I was asking the same thing before going from a 104 to 116 on a powder day and was shocked with the result. Not so much on this day but in two powder day videos I have coming soon from Vermont, it made a massive improvement in skiing powder! It's easier to just float on top of the snow!

@@themichaelbilello I was contemplating on getting a really wide one. I've been asking this questions to skiers. And, they all say it's not a myth. it's actually worth it on a good pow day. thank u for ur reply. I will get a wide ski one day!

@@choisam20 I really don’t think you’ll regret it! especially going from a 96. I would definitely try to go above 114 but it’s really what ever ski works best for you! I bought these in Jackson Hole and my 104’s in Telluride. Lots of great demo / renting options there!

No, it does not work like that. If your ski is 96 and has long rocker and mellow and has camber, and you are not too heavy the 96 floats, but the difference between high 90s and 116 ski is the pleasure in soft snow. The fun aspect changes.

I can for sure! Was already planning on it, it might take a bit of time to make because I'm ranking 26 resorts on there and I have some videos to post before hand but hoping sometime in May it could be out! Got a very fun list of resorts I wanna talk about! Glad you enjoyed!

Cool!! I will watch it when it comes out!

Thanks man! I'm 19. Liquid courage would probably do the job 😂I know I can definitely push myself a lot harder while still avoiding injuries, it's more of just a confidence thing! Always pushing myself a little harder every time I'm out there though! Thanks for the comment!

yes these are the 104’s

@@themichaelbilello how do you like them? i'm thinking of getting the enforcer 99's but i'm on atomic bents rn which are a lot lighter so i'm not sure how the switch to a heavier ski like that would be

@@chadyu7916 I actually tried to Bent Chetlers when I was in Jackson and I would say for the bigger mountain terrain, I prefer the stiffer ski like the enforcer, it just absorbs much more impact and fits my skiing style much better. I would say you can't go wrong with the enforcer, but it definitely is an aggressive ski that can control you more than you control it depending on your ability level. If you are confident in your ability or want to ski more aggressively, I would definitely say this is the ski to choose. Pretty sure there's also a 110 and another 114 model. I like the 104 because it performs well on groomers, in moguls and in powder, but I ended up getting a pair Armada ARV 116's for the powder!

@@themichaelbilello thanks for the insight, that's really helpful!

Yeah I need to do Alta justice next time I go there! I did find more guiding options at Snowbird for better prices, would you recommend doing that compared to Alta guiding? Only thing is I know Snowbird a lot more than Alta but the pricing is so much better. I really want to experience this mountain to it's full potential though (unlike this day) so it'll probably be worth it anyways.

This was a couple years ago, I remember just booking this trip because it was super late season and it was one of the only places that still had a lot of snow and more on the way, we didn't really mind how much would actually be open. It was a fun time!

I think you might've meant to reply to Lucas's comment? I ski a Nordica Enforcer 104 and the Armada ARV 116 JJ on pow days. I'm just as curious about the whitewalkers though 😂

@@themichaelbilello Gotcha, I ski the JJ as well but may be replacing my 104 Revolts as my daily driver and am curious what about that whitewalker. Great video :)

@@johnsmith1706 In comparison to the JJ I'm pretty sure the Whitewalker is a softer ski but don't quote me on that. Would love to demo it next season!

hell yeah! I would move there for Snowbird alone 😂and the vibe of Brighton!

Ayye thanks man!! It sure was, till next time!

super fun! also exhausting 😂

Papa Joe gave a free lesson.😅 thanks for sharing

never been!

Trust me, Alta , Snowbird, Solitude, Brighton is ski HEAVEN. Snow and terrain a bit better than Heavenly, old Squaw, Kirkwood , Alpine Meadows. If you a young and free, move there for a season or two. If you are too situated, vacation there for a week or so.

@@michaelderose397 snow quality in Utah is definitely unmatched, probably my favorite area I've ever been for skiing! Tahoe definitely can be sketchy with snow quality but I know both mountain ranges are incredible, will definitely make it to Tahoe sometime and always will have plans for Utah!

that was actually my dad, I realized I didn’t really clarify that in the video. He popped out of his ski at the top of the run because of his wrong din settings at the time. He said that was his longest fall he’s had before 😂

definitely a smart idea to do that! And honestly I’m just along for the ride I like experiencing those adventures 😂

yeah we hit Canada at a pretty rough time but it got a lot better, always a fun day out there though!

Thank you! and yes you’re 100% right I actually just got another comment saying the same thing. The photo itself is original but the title and captions are very similar but I’ve been creating my own fonts / title cards that I’ll be using soon, I just want to make sure they’re perfect before I actually put them on videos! Thanks for commenting!
