vroom and boom i’m in ohio so closest to me is perfect north. It’s all ice and terrible skiing, but it’s the best I have out here. Luckily I get to go on ski trips a few times a year out west
You forgot the most important part, going to the bar and talking loudly about how you steezed/stomped/shredded/bombed the gnar/blower pow/corn/chowder in a totally dope/sick/rad/sweet fashion dude, yeah buddy, whoo!
First time powder.. have to be patient. Powder will reveal any weaknesses in your skiing form. Have to keep your weight off the back of the skis. The tendency is to sit back to let the tips float but makes it impossible to turn. Had my wife in powder last week first time and the best thing for her was a gentle grade where she felt confident and could keep her speed up. You have to be able to blast through it with some pace or the turns are simply exhausting and it's not fun. These tips are great and this guy really breaks things down, gives great advice.
Hey amigo great vid! You just glanced over side slipping. What do you mean by that - skidding powder (turning with your body first and heels) or slipping a chute over hard snow? I just can't grasp how can you side slip powder.
Great tips. Was skiing powder last week and finally was able to just go right through it, mostly due to having the confidence to keep the speed up. Can't stress enough just how important it is to blast right through it. Truly excellent point about the pole plants- too many skiers do not understand what the purpose of the pole plant is and where to place it. Fantastic series and one that I have recommended to fellow skiers. Thank you.
NOW we're talking this is what I'm ALL about, powder & trees & steeps! OMG what fun, awesome Shifty's in the pow that's really impressive Jens I haven't seen that yet out in Tahoe! I like the shorter turns in the trees-it's kinda necessary! Then arching it out when things open up is really fun. I did my first narrow rock chutes at Squaw Valley this last spring (in powder & corn), I learned real quick you get shot out like a rocket at the bottom where the snow packs down. Be ready for that back-seater alright! Sure gets me charged up for winter, even in the midst of being in full-on mtn biking SEND IT mode now. No BS, the Pop helps with bike jumping too! Great video very envious of your ski mtn, thanks!
I'm in east BC and we hardly have gotten any powder, had a decent one on Wednesday but it was like maybe 13cm but this whole year has been kinda meh...
@@lincolnpeart5093 oh when did I say that? There's many people who can spin 3s and croks out of deep pow and I find that really difficult because the snow catches you sometimes. The FWT is an example for when you really need this skill. What exactly is your point? To always build a takeoff evertime you want to drop something 😂
If i ski in the woods i like to choose a small chute or somewhere where the forest isn't as dense and then charge it. It just looks much cooler then doing some small slow turns between the trees.
In 1979 I built a motorhome and headed for the central Rockies well let me tell you after twenty Winters skiing the Western Slope and all over Utah I'm looking back and say well where did all the time go I need to get back out of there before I turn into dust. Trust me you will not regret your time spent in the snow or should I say on the snow.
Watched this this morning before skiing today on the best snow of the season. I’m to old to stomp it but I was inspired by the video and had a great day. I know this is a old video but it still works 😊
1. Maintain your speed and momentum 2. get a rhythm going 3. know where the save spots are incase of a slide or avalanche. remember speed is your friend when skiing on powder, when in doubt go straight.
I love your videos and all your tips on how to improve, you make it easy to pick and choose things that work for me. I was just wondering if you had any tips on riding tight glades as where I ride most often it's half and half open and real tight duck and turn glades?
So, did you say "Red Mountain Guides and Instructors"? As in Red Mountain in the Southern interior of British Columbia? Are you toying with me here or are you talking about a different Red Mountain? (Obviously I'm in British Columbia.)
I ski powder on Redster G9 race stocks, it’s all about knowing how you position should be. On race skis or slope skis, stay in the middle of the ski, whole footbed pushing down on your skiboot. When skiing on those wide off piste free ride type of skis you can be forward because those will stay floating on the snow so to say. If you lean forward on slope/race skis the tips will bury themselves into the snow and you’ll make a beautiful little faceplant :)
@@jessesimecek7835 I ate a lot of snow. On the very last day I hired some K2 Mind benders 108 and had much better experience but I don't know if they were the best choice for bottomless powder. This is why I posted this question.
Hotwire they should be fine tbh, I’m not an expert on that part though. I only have race skis but I enjoy powder when it’s there. Google can help you out I guess. I like the challenge of going powder with race carvers though :)
@@jessesimecek7835 Light, fluffy "champagne" powder on carving skis I can deal with - in fact I really enjoy it. When it gets heavy(ier), though, I'd rather have 90-100 mm underfoot: race skis get too sensitive to fore/aft movements (in the way you described above) for my liking.
All I need now is good snow.
Freeride camps would be sick 🤘🏻
Yes
Ive been to multiple, in norway.
only if I didn't live on the east coast
bogust_ bork I do to man and I just so happen to be and Colorado and they r about to get 20 inches tomorrow 😂
Brandon Cummings lucky
Zach Mason I’m so happy to be here 🤩
Idk man east coast can have some epic pow if you are more northern

That's Tip #6 and will be covered in the next Stomp It tutorial.
When you can Ski it you don't need to talk about it, those who can do, those who can't ... ...
This looks absolutely amazing! To bad there’s no where like this near me.
that line at 0:31 was sickkk!
Freeride camp sounds like a dope idea
You sould make a video about what you bring to the Hill
Loved the energy on this vid! Make more of these videos please!
thanks for doing a another freeride vid!!!!!!!!
Watching this as going powder skiing for the first time in my life, perfect timing!
You will be surprised, I promise😁
Jami Viitanen me to😂
You are going to have the time of your life just enjoy it!

@@cvn6555 today I drove my brother for his fist powder and it went great! He enjoyed it and I did some times just fuck technic just enjoy and shred
congratulations for 200k sub. 🎊
The best way to ski Powder is FIRST!!!
Freeride camps would be dope
gnarly man thanks for tips !!
Hey amigo great vid! You just glanced over side slipping. What do you mean by that - skidding powder (turning with your body first and heels) or slipping a chute over hard snow? I just can't grasp how can you side slip powder.
Would definitely consider one of your free ride camps.

Update version of how to slide rails with style?????
Freeride camps would be super sick
I think there are a lot of people out there who'd be into the idea of a freeride camp. Including me.

get face shots! There's a couple of ways you can do this, aaand the key ingredient in both are usually sper- I mean SPEED. Definitely meant speed.
You're so adorable! I just love your sense of humor. Good tip I'll be SURE to try for the faceshot!
Theres frickin nothing in quebec
No powder 😭
I'm in east BC and we hardly have gotten any powder, had a decent one on Wednesday but it was like maybe 13cm but this whole year has been kinda meh...
I leave in french alps and we have 50cm of powder today in "les arcs"😋
@@WikkyPlays Depends where you go, Whitewater, Red, Revy, Kicking Horse have all had mega seasons, some of the highest snowfall in recent years
@@roryedwards2811 Yeah, I mean Powder King gets really good powder but I mean almost to Alberta in the northern part we get nothing for powder
I love the channel man! Keep shredding that sweet pow!
Thanks to your videos i just managed to learn my first 360 today. Thanks a lot!
Loving the new bent chelter 120
I’ve been skiing in New England for 16 years. Can you do a video on how to ski the East?
Please do how to 360 in pow, the takeoff is so difficult in deeper snow
AnonymerBaum yes he needs to
you need to build a lip smh
@@lincolnpeart5093 yeah becaus ein the FWT you have the time to build a lip before you drop 🤷🏻♂️
@@hannes_mlbx9599 are you really comparing FWT level of skiing to yours lol

What about pulling wheelies and tail presses
But how do you find untracked powder like this 😍so nice
Freeride camps would be awesome
Freeride camps!!
Great tips, now I just have to find some powder.
Another great video....Thanks !!
Looks amazing 😍 I need to go skiing.

Awesome tips. Thank you so much
Can you do a review about your ski?
Can you make a video on how to ski steep powder in trees?
Def joining a freeride camp. :)
Only if I didn't live in France..
Oh yea, the 6th tip is be a great athlete like this guy.
Im tired of this shit snow in California
I’d love free ride camps.
Freeride camp in norway!
Классно. У нас снега мало выпало в этом году.
These vids are so helpfull
You should make a video about your EDC to the mountain; which backpack you are using, and other cool stuff you are bringing with you :)
What goggles are those please
Yes finally been waiting so long
Great tips! Thanks
Free facial, full float
Free Ride Camp please!

Going next week with Frank to Norway, Hovden. Thanks for the Video :D
Greetz Lars !
We've got dumping snow last week in France, but wind just blown away all of them.
More free ride please

What do you keep in your backpack, seems important if we know...
Anyone know what backpack that is? Looking for a good pack with a spot for a radio like that
I always like just being as playful as possible with poppy turns to really sink in and get those face shots!
Freeride camp!
Insane video with a insane song, whaaats that name
Thanks for your work Jens 👆🏽😁
F-yeah m8, that's something we'd like to see! Do more of those! :)
Freeride camp would be awesome. Might even book one
Keep it up!
Powder is better than Valentinsday❤️
You make it look so easy
Just casually going nuts on powder
Are you sponsored by atomic?
Not me but this video and 11 other videos this winter.
Can you make a 540 vid I just learned but I can definitely improve
Loved the video! Would really enjoy more freeride content. Im so hyped for my skiing trip next friday!
h
Ya buddy
Ja gör det
So, did you say "Red Mountain Guides and Instructors"? As in Red Mountain in the Southern interior of British Columbia? Are you toying with me here or are you talking about a different Red Mountain? (Obviously I'm in British Columbia.)
"Rad" mountain guides although Red Mountain is the best place to ski for sure, I spent a few seasons there and love that place so much
I’m so pumped for this ski season 💪 ⛷
You should do a video telemarking
Could you do more freeride vids?? It is what I do over all!!!
Yes to free ride camps... I’m there!
Luv ur vids keep up the awesome work 😄
Congrats on 200k subs 2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ 0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ 🎉

teah do tha
