**person full slams into a 2 story drop**
crowd: "Whoooo!! Yeaah!!"
Person stepped up and commited, deserves cheering.
@@SwedeenXBL shh, let unexperienced skiers think that falls like these are lethal 😂😂
@@SwedeenXBL nj
@@neeeeeck9005 Nah, people that don't do/have never done extreme sports seem to lack the understanding that most of it is slamming and getting back up. Understanding that might bring them to actually try new shit and actually learn.
@@SwedeenXBL yup, I want to start learning jumps so bad now, I was always nervous about it, but seeing this, I think I'll survive on the the East Coast
Shout out to the dude that went belly flop spread eagle and gave me major anxiety
absolutely insane
that is wut u call a FULL SEND
Carter4240 i thought he was committing suicide
Just gonna say that but you did it Already holy fuck tho
Im the 1000 liker 👏👏
Love it how all of them celebrate someone nearly dying 😂
Louis Donaldson yeah facts
Banana
True
@@espenmathiassen2450 Profound
The sound is probably edited, yeah this is epic and stupid at the same time.
5:11 truly a one of the kind
Yes bitch
he realized too late it wasn't a pool diving competition
He’s one of a kind because all the other kinds of him have done insane things like that 😓
Dont worry all deaths edited out and subbed with cheering.
I was definitely concerned about a few of those guys then the crowd just goes buck wild
Jesse Jackson 😂😂😂
Zero deaths on Corbet
@@tylertutt3141 Ya right
@@HairCanada13 Look it up, jabroni
3:30 idk if its the camera angle but the way he stopped that rotation is insane
Definitely, that open and wobble was massive. Maybe there was slight wind going up the crack, seen that a few times big sending chutes like this.
Oh yeah he put the brakes on mid flip for sure. All in the core.
Yeah I noticed that shit too. Think about how much fuckin speed he caught while doing those flips. It’s seems like it would be impossible to fuckin slow down that well.
Dude it’s Teton brown what do you expect
That bit caught my attention more than the flips
Everyone who falls stand up and smile like nothing happened to him/her. Really awesome.
Adrenalin will keep 'em going for a few more hours, then the pain will set in.
They just full send it and land on their faces.
And everyone was like "FUCK YEAH!!!"
Fortwatch yeah that’s pretty much what happened
That’s how you ski and snow board
@@narutouchia7460 Not completely. I like the ones who landed it and looked safe
Well then your not trying or giving it your best
5:09 - failed suicide attempt. Come out “OHHH HOHO YEAH”
“Oh hahah yeah I’m guys I meant to land that”
So true
Full respect for the dude that did the bellyflop in the air.
Ken abselute unit
attempted suicide is the name of that trick xD
5:09 i have doubts about his sanity...
Watching that gave me hella anxiety
man didnt even try to land lmao knew he was gonna take it hard from the beginning
Made for a good photo tho
@@EpicShadowGAME looks like he landed right on his lower back too! hope the landing was soft
I would do that
This event sponsored by Orthopedic Surgeons of America.
Very underrated comment
😂🤣
My favorite UA-cam comment in a long time!
Yup, I am a therapist that treats people with an orthopedic injury, while having suffered an orthopedic injury of my shoulder. I think that I have something to say, and I always tell people, do great things while you are young, you will pay the bill later on. Call me.
@@johnnyrosso3441 Indeed!
5:55 that is so gnarly
yes he just ripped through that section that and the full-send belly flop both made my heart fucking stop
Legend has it Teton Brown is still trying to land that double backflip
Holy fuck another stupid legend joke wow
FYI teton means nipple in french
Shout out to the man that just tweeted himself off the cliff
Yeeted
tweeted
Hands down the most iconic in-bounds run in the world.
this was some amateur kid stuff
Saw it this summer. Video fails to convey how gnarly this is.
@@melted_cheetah not even close lol was there last year and all these videos are complete bullshit
For a typical eastcoast transplant, yes.
@@soulofcinder4222 someone likes Squaw
My god some of these wipes are brutal
note to self dont pull a double backflip here lol i dont think even one person landed it
I know
@@TheFloydsta In the 2020 installment Parkin Costain landed it, but he did have a prepared jump which Teton didn't.
3 years later and I think this is still the best alpine sport video out there
Nothing like these amazing athletes, but dropped in several times in the early 80's. The sheer vertical rock walls towering on both sides of the first 50 yards are freakishly intimidating ... even for excellent skiers. Hard to understand until you're standing on the edge, making the decision. Just watching these videos brings back the adrenaline (and fear :-)). Great stuff ...
Yeah, its like standing in front of a Dragon ready for the battle. You have to experience it at-least once.
I have done this twice (when I was much younger). The first time I let myself fall into it and landed on a ledge. After a long wait all my friends left except one because they didn’t think I was ever going to leave. It was so scary with all the cliffs and the steep slope, but I finally managed to do the first turn and after a lot of jump turns made it to the bottom. The second time I thought “I own Corbet’s” and fell starting right from the top. When you fall here you start accelerating, trying not to plant a pole in front of you. Quite an experience!
I love how not a single skier actually landed a flip. They all looked so beautiful in the air though
Guy with the blue/orange jacket nailed it, but gotta love the nose butter.
that was the best for sure
Can you post the time stamp?
Luke, at about 6:03. Nose Butter at 4:15, but doesn't stick the landing. Oh, to be young and able to withstand the punishment!
Grizz Kid
Thanks
5:09 Dude just base jumped without a parachute
I’m glad I’ve reached a point in my life where I can enjoy watching them and not even think of doing it myself 😊
Me too.
I’ve been there and it’s nuts. Huge respect for those athletes
I haven’t but I still think its nuts! But seriously I think I could “cheat” down it like that boarder did where he slid down 6 feet before he dropped. But even that would be crazy and fun to do. Total head rush fo sure.
I think I’ve watched this video about 20 times by now.
4:14 favorite drop beautiful press
Watching videos like this just makes me want to go and ski!!!!!
Skier's bucket list item right here!!! One day, i'll make this drop.....
I'll come with ya bro
Crazyninja30 I wont😂
Did it last year
@@michaelpetraco7051 how was it?
Just dropping in is not particularly difficult. Simply map out your first few turns, and things should go smoothly. Below the narrow section it is like skiing a regular black.
5:12 what the fukc
Популярно в България YEE DEE DEE DEE
FOR ‘MERICAH *eagle squawks in the distance*
There was instant respect for everyone who literally just SENT IT first go. Especially the snowboarders.
Been there twice. Corbett's was closed both times because of heavy snowfall and avalanche danger. I've been skiing basically my whole life and was very good but I'm not sure I could have "made the leap". I'm 51 now, banged up as hell, but Corbett's is still not out of the question but not likely. And Jackson Hole is the most beautiful place on Earth. Everyone should go
5:09 this is my new life goal. Oh my god. Better make sure I take care of any other life goals first though
1:44 "I don't usually do competitions" - professional skier
He probably meant he didn’t compete on big mountain just park
Thats how it be
@@liluzisquirt7300 lol no sander is a big mountain god. He’s not usually a park skier
65 year old freestyler that in 1979 did a Big Backie of Corbet’s, and skied away from it. The Cedar Hills Minnesota group are world renowned freestylers who still till this day are counting up vertical👽👽
And this is why snowboarding and skiing are the best sports around, just the community and feeling of freedom, makes me proud, now if you’ll excuse me, time to book some plane ticks to Jackson hole mountain resort for this season
i love how they still cheered for the people that fell, good sports
easily one of the most enjoyable snow sport videos out there; congratz on the idea cause that must have been so much fun for all involved
What a dope event! It's good to see skiers and snowboarders rocking out together!
The biggest free fall I ever did was into East Greely at Alta. It was 60 feet. I was rated expert, expert back then. That was 1980. Now I'm 71 and going back to the hill. No I won't be doing that again :-).
Candide Thovex is like "whats special about this cliff ?"
Yeah..Candide does bigger drops in his warm ups!!🤣🤣⛷
He will be like, they do this in the winter! Crazy!
This is such a badass event and video! Thank you and congrats to all involved
Growing up in the area launching into Corbet's was always a kind of right of passage for people who took skiing and snowboarding seriously. I ate it hard the first time I did it back in like 2003 lol. Glad it was a seriously snowy day...
Damn i can't get my head around how can you land/fall with such force and don't get whiplash?
thanks guys for clarification
Där gubbsta
Also important to note that with the angle at which they’re hitting the ground, they’re absorbing a lot less force than if they were hitting a horizontal surface, as part of their energy is transferred into sending them down the mountain as opposed to straight into the ground
You should watch some rollerblading videos. Some top rollerbladers will jump down 2 stories and land cleanly
There is usually beer involved
That was awesome !!! After 2hrs of watching I still have a goose bumps 😮
Outside of people surfing Nazare Portugal, this is one of the most insane things I've ever seen. Love it.
Who is also hyped af for this season?
sick event, crazy aerial skills -- thanks for the video
just watching this, i can feel the history of skiing.... *tears up*
Underrated comment
Damn!!! I was 13 when I first skied corbet's. Back then, 28 yrs ago, nobody was sending it like this. It was amazing just to see someone hit the lip w speed.
Awesome comp!! These folks rocked it.
My one time there at Corbets, and I BAILED on skiing this!!! OHHH WHY God???? WHY??? Been many many years now and it is one of the few things I regret that I didn't do when I had the shot at it! GREAT VIDEO!!!
I love SNOWBOARD! Nice video, love that place!
That was super sick. What a spot what a contest! RAD
Awesome! Can't wait for 2019. Jackson Hole is Paradise!
This video is greatness.
The drop at 5:09 is insane!!
Landed right on his tailbone looked painful, but damn did it look good
that was some straight assassin's creed shit
Yea that got my attention. Now, I know I can do the first part of that... but its the last part that I'm quite unsure about.
PEPERMINT KING No man.... I say every single of those guys are crazy..
PEPERMINT KING 05:38 is bigger
So great! What a celebration of the season :D
Legit coolest video on the internet
I love everything about this video.
My knees twisted just by watching this
5:08 best trick
Love this channel
This makes me feel good ❤❤❤
That was beautiful. Seriously. I believe I could ski it but only in the sense of stying on my feet and doing a couple of turns. No tricks. I love to challenge myself with that kind of slope. Thank you.
Done Corbet's twice in my life. Once right out of college (after racing in HS and for CU - go Buffs) on a fractured left leg just because I didn't want to pass skiing it on that trip. Did it again for my 40th B'day. Both times involved dropping in from the side with a half turn in air land and then drop in the rest of the way. So the drop looked a bit different than what they showed here. I know 20+ yrs ago it was known as the deadliest run in NA not sure if that holds today. The first time I did that run it had 2 snow ramps on each side from rock walls coming in and if you didn't shoot the gap you would get serious air but 2nd time there I didn't see the snow ramps at the bottom so I guess they changed the bottom of Corbet's right before it opens up into the snow field.
This gave me goosebumps 🔥
What a great video and competition. Would love to be there in person to see that craziness!
That contest looks absolutely legendary!
sister and a 12 year younger one.
We would drive "up north" for ski weekends, eventually corrupting other friends and families (my mother was the minister of music with six choirs at a 2,400 member Methodist church (huge for the times) and "converted" many to skiing.
I was especially "addicted".
As my father pulled into the ski resort parking lot, I would be opening the car door to get out while it was still slowing down, to go get my lift ticket and get ON THE HILL!!!
I would ski ALL day till closing (4:30) without coming in, if I possibly could.
There was a little warming house/snack bar at the top and I would jump out of my skis dive into the outdoor entrance bathroom and come out and jump back on my skiis.
My mother would walk out from the lodge food service counter to the chair-lift with a cold hamburger to hand me while I was in line.
I'd be the last down the hill just before the ski patrol did their end of day sweep.
Then we would all go to one of the area supper clubs after we'd cleaned up.
The next morning we'd lobby for one of the parents drive us back to the hill and then they had breakfast in our group rented cabins in the woods.
SO MUCH FUN!!!
Our families did this through Jr. high and high school into college.
When I got married I taught
my wife to ski and then our son and daughter.
We embarked on one of OUR family activities in the same manner.
My son "stole" my skis because he made it to varsity on his high-school racing team and had out grown his equipment. I supported his interest. I was then 65.
My sister and brother-in-law were married forty years ago and he was born, raised and they live in Boulder.
He recently retired from the Denver Symphony Orchestra after 34yrs and 25yrs as principal cellist in the Colorado Central City Opera Orchestra.
My sister was the harp faculty at the University of Denver, first call union harpist and played with the Denver Symphony.
They are both 70 and still ski the Rockies.
You may WAKE-UP now........
As a kid I would have KILLED to do that. But my family didn’t get it and the ski hills in Nova Scotia are a joke.
Moved to the West Coast (BC) and started skiing again with my own family. We go as much as possible during ski season and as you know BC has “proper” ski hills. The way I look at it is my kids get their exercise as do my wife and I. Plus we do it all together as opposed to sitting on the sidelines watching your kids. To this day I’m like a kid when the snow comes.
Super merci beaucoup pour ce moment 👍👍👍👍👌
5:39 Yard sale!!!
Her commentary at the end was PERFECT!
5:08 absolutely put a smile on my face
So inspirational and awesome 😢
Hello there, oh my goodness superb. This video is awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely awesome!
Some gutsy athletes out there, beautiful....love JH....love Wyoming
wow some of these moments gave me goosebumps
i can not wait until next week for KINGS & QUEENS CORBET'S COULOIR
This is SICK!
this is number 1 on my bucket list to do
This was an awesome event. The sends were so huge
U know their there to have fun when they all start cheering when someone screws up
just wow to the athletes, and ouch and phew and outstanding
I really hope I can go skiing again this winter
Looks like the best competition I've ever seen
My god I love all of these people. I need to get to the snow asap.
wow...gonna be there the week of Jan.13th 19 ...cant wait to check it out for real
i hope to make it there sometime soon, it must be awesome. go Jess
Every time I go I think "This is the time" and then I remember that I have a family and a ton of employees that will be out of work if I get hurt. Was gonna do it the last time I was there but they closed it on my way up in Big Red. Probably for the best! All props for those that ski it so well.
John Malloy just take it slow, you dont have to send a double backy off the top
My issue has always been that if there's not enough coverage I won't do it, but if there's a ton of fresh snow then I'm having so much fun in the trees or on the Hobacks. It's the kind of thing I'd only try the afternoon of my last day in good conditions. I'd also only do it if I were recording, and then I'd have to make sure my wife never found the footage.
Haven't been since '15 but I'll be there in two weeks. Maybe this is the time!
@@LJ-un1hb Hahahahaha. I'd be happy to just slide in and make two turns. It's nothing after that. No chance I could launch. Once I get in the air my body forgets where the ground is.
@@davebo357 drop it first run, first day you're there. Fresh legs, fully amped, you'll get it no problem and then the rest of the trip you'll be on a high cause you did it. If you wait til your last day you're gonna be tired and you'll have siked yourself out cause you've just been planning to fail the whole time by saying you'll do it right at the end in case you get hurt. At most 2nd or 3rd run. Get a good look at it, scope the drop one time, then go get a warm up run so you've got a good feel for your skis, then just send the thing. No sense in letting it get in your head for days, you'll just end up either crashing or talking yourself out of it.
Like you John, getting older with responsibilities. Would never do it tired. Have to be good conditions/ visibility, good tune and fresh legs. Anyway, love watching these talented skiers and boarders. Fantastic!
Crazy. Been skiing since 1972 and to see where the sport has progressed is amazing. With the newer equipment and better training it has allowed for mind blowing tricks being performed off this very difficult run. Like to see a competition where the skier has to use 1975 skis with modern bindings. Just a thought :-).
That slo-mo backflip gnar-gnar was straight gas!!!
wow this is amazing
Awesome Guys!!!!
Fantastic video
This sounds like the chillest competition ever, just a bunch of pro skiers and snowboarders hanging out and going full send off the ridge
Bucket list destination.
I think I will stick to mountain biking
Alan Becker both

Ya I love both
So insane! Wish I could be there and do that!
Dope Edit.
