So sick
Glad you still enjoying doing your videos
Great video...Those shots at 4:15 are amazing.
Soooo cool !!
Shots are so sick 🔥
That was an amazing climb and split board descent. Thank you for sharing the experience with us!
It’s been awhile since I’ve been on UA-cam. Dude your cineamatography has improved so much. Those drone shots are awesome
Thanks Davis, really proud of what I am putting out these days.
The shot at 9:28 is great. You filmed the crux of the decent and had a fantastic trip down. That's not bad for a little bit of torture. That was a steep slope. Keep 'em coming.
Cheers and thanks was really happy how that backpack shot turned out to my surprise.
One of your best Sherpa! It blows not to have this kinda terrain within reach (East Coaster)
Thanks glad you enjoyed it
tuckermans and other areas in the whites have extreme couloir skiing
Awesome video! Gonna be climbing Torreys and maybe Grays from the east side this weekend. What did the conditions look like for the East face from the top?
Do you have a trails account that you use to track your ascents? I’d love to use it for reference when I attempt these epic adventures
My website has more information on every hike, GPX files, more pics etc. etc. www.thevirtualsherpa.com/emperor-couloir-torreys-peak-guide/
how does your drone handle the winds up there?
Never had an issue with winds so far. Once they go above 30, I am generally a lot more cautious.
How did you know that the 40-45 degree slope was safe from avalanche?
I could go on for days about how I evaluated but this video is helpful: ua-cam.com/video/JRFOFfNiLZ0/v-deo.html
What is your hair care routine? Asking for the wife
Shampoo and conditioner.
