Wow. I can’t say enough! You boys are making it look EASY! That first hit made it look so mellow, meanwhile it’s one of the gnarliest gaps around! I remember seeing that skier Tanner Hall break his ankles on this years ago. SO HEAVY! Loving this content!
Dude Nik hitting that hardway first try was so fucking gnarly... Honestly never heard of him but just watched some videos and that dude can rip. SAGE THAT BANGER WAS INSAAAANE. Congrats man and RIP Grandma.
love this channel... its really what snowboard videos have been missing which is essentially the bonus features... but how can you bring back the secret part/section?
Great session boyz - so funny I skied with Chad back before he pioneered this jump with Brent Benson. He used to send the Blackjack elbow on crappy K2 gs skis before heading back to wash dishes at the Lodge. Never woulda predicted we were part of pre-history. Glad to have been a part of it - especially “Fat Tuesday” You’d know it if you were there. 92 inches of Pow, road closed, tram open, just a lucky few there to ride… ❄️🏂 🤩
I just don’t comprehend what you guys do, you guys nailing the speed first try and riding away first try is nuts. Speed checking just on park jumps gives me anxiety!
@@SageKotsenburg Random comment, but I took a bunch of computer engineering classes with Blaze at the U. He was fun to work with, I thought it was funny I got to know him after seeing you guys hucking all the time on Pick and Shovel haha
So insane! If you've seen the gap in person it's mind boggling how big it is. These guys built different! ...Didn't Alta patrol destroy it a year or two ago? Sucks if true.
how do you get to chad's from the bottom of alta? january 8th - 15th ish me and a few friends are gonna be out in alta. need to know how to get to chads gap from alta base, or whether or not its possible to ski to it. iykyk
@@SageKotsenburg thank God, I thought I missed out this year, I haven't even been checking back country because of how shady the snow has been this year
A legit question: at this point, is there a template for that kicker? I mean, are you following specific rules in terms of measurements for the kicker in that spot? I guess the anwser is yes, like in a snow park, but I don't know, I am very curious about it. By the way, you are all insane. Just the speed alone is scary as fck.
This raw format is awesome. So interesting to see the actual build up. Also that in run alone is craazy!
Run in is so gnarly
This is the content the culture needs!
We’ll keep it coming
Baden was too casual with it on that first hit. So sick
Yeah, that fs 360 Nosebone should have gotten a slowmo! Everything sick =)
How effin' impressive is it having all the guys land their first attempt? Wow...
Such a good feeling
@@SageKotsenburg you guys rock!

That was so good, that jump is wild. Love these vids!!

My god!!! Those sticks on the first run!!! Unreal! That feeling must be better than hitting the lottery! Cheers boys!!!

So fun to see the bts

That run in is so gnarly … so much speed and gotta be balanced in the last few meters … and that air time … wow
Lovin the raw.. feels like I’m there.
This is great. Thanks for promoting my gap.
So fkn bad ass! Loved watching the process to the back 12. Absolutely insane!!!
yeah yeah keep the raw uploads coming, these are sick. the in-runs are fierce.
We will def keep em coming, new vid next week from a jump i hit last march
Chads is where legends are made the history of that jump from the beginning has had such a history in snow sports
Sage, you a straight boss!!!
For grandma!! Love it
That’s the best trick I’ve ever seen on video at Chads gap!!! I thought it was a 900, so smooth🤙🏽🤘🏽😁
that last speed check before the kicker is nuts
Damn. Sage is built different under pressure. Love the raw format please keep ‘em coming!
that run in is crazyyy! boys are zoomin!
pleas put out more of these raw videos. By far my favorite style of backcountry videos
Insanity 💪. Raws got the vibes. Thanks for the hard work folks, gets me fired up!
All the vibes
Major!!! Good stuff you guys, keep it up.
That first test run was buttery af!
It seems to me that Sage is the guy, when it comes to huge gnarly jumps.
He steps up.
some say if youre there on the right night, you can still hear in the distance "IVE GOT BROKEN ANKLES, MY ANKLES ARE BROKE"
This gave me chills.
shoutout grandma.
That's what's up
Shouts to grandma 🙌🙌
The grind don’t stop till the rail ends>
Gonna be a while before somebody goes bigger than that. Good work boys!!!
Mental Chad’s session! Cheers gentlemen.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooo good my dog!!!
🙌
sacré bleuuuuuu!! Impressive stuff
So good with no music!
I can feel the nerves hahaha. This is awesome.
Yeah Derek! Hectic pyramid gap sessions one of the best vids
@@SageKotsenburg 🙌🙌watching raw sessions, especially on those jumps, hits different for some reason 🤜🤛
i have no words.. i fu**ing LOVE THIS
so sick the raw videos sage!
Thanks 🙌
I just don’t comprehend what you guys do, you guys nailing the speed first try and riding away first try is nuts. Speed checking just on park jumps gives me anxiety!
Thanks, this one was beast for sure!
@@SageKotsenburg Random comment, but I took a bunch of computer engineering classes with Blaze at the U. He was fun to work with, I thought it was funny I got to know him after seeing you guys hucking all the time on Pick and Shovel haha
Like a damn ninja star cuttin thru the air 🌀🔥🔥🔥
No doubt
Good stuff!
Speechless!
Yisss! You get what you put out baby!!! 🤣🔥🔥🔥
3:25 he is going so fucking fast on the run up his board is skipping on the ground - no helmet - totally amazing
That gap is too much. Bravo guys
Thanks boss
That run in is preposterous
So insane! If you've seen the gap in person it's mind boggling how big it is. These guys built different! ...Didn't Alta patrol destroy it a year or two ago? Sucks if true.
A back dub 12... on Chad's. 🔥
Yeah Dave! 🙌🙌
insane, absolut banger session ,...so sick ! 🤙
Thanks a ton!
Such good content
the run up is insane
insane gap!
I can’t believe you guys can recover for the take off. It looks like you’re gonna g out every time 😂 so fuckin gnarly!
Best web series out rn
The in-run is one of the hardest parts of the gap. Let alone deciding where to start for first hit and the building of the kicker
In run is so heavy
I once walked into a secret room at the video store in the 90's and found a video called Chads Gap.
Three fuckin 3’s all first try and then a 1260. This session is unreal. Love the edit.
Ya'll are gnarly
This is so sick, love the raw footage. Did you guys have to walk back up after each hit? Brutal
mental!
So at 1:24, when they are strapping in, there is a little cliff in the background. I'd hit that. LOL
Phat Gabe 🔛🔝
More of THIS!
Triple stop to start. Have yourselves a dayyy
Always a good feeling
obviously the last was a banger but the 7 nose grab was clean as fk. nice session
how do you get to chad's from the bottom of alta? january 8th - 15th ish me and a few friends are gonna be out in alta. need to know how to get to chads gap from alta base, or whether or not its possible to ski to it.
iykyk
Bro, do you remember back in 2011 when I gave you a signed Monster energy at the X Games in Aspen?
Has anything bigger been put down on cg?
Do you guys hike that ? How many hits do you get ?! I believe in the absinthe vid , they got 🚁 shuttle ?
Yep fully hiked it! Never knew Absinthe helied it til after 😂 earned it for sure
insane. everyone spun first hit.
MY ANKLES ARE BROKEN!!!!! AHHHHH!!!
Man I didn't even know it got built this year, the snow has been so shit and loose
This was a few years back just uploaded the raw sesh 🤙
@@SageKotsenburg thank God, I thought I missed out this year, I haven't even been checking back country because of how shady the snow has been this year
that drop in 😲
YESSSS Sage
Hmmm are we sure this is 2019??
Nothing like a 130 ft front 3 Guinea pig😳😳🙌🙌👆
Baden is a g
Was this the day Kyle randomly rolled up on a ski test with pin bindings and sent it?
That was a year or 2 after this on Pyramid! Always will rember that day, Kyle was just like that 🙌
I need to see a straight air or a 100 ft Damian iguana back flip
Y'all made Chad's gap look wayyy to easy
Sweet video. The ravine video was rad too 🏂⛷️🎉
Ok. So fire!! Not only Sage but everyone seshed the f$@k out of Chad… anyone that’s been to that monster, trust me it’s 3 x’s bigger in person
You need to go 80kmh to clear the gap i heard once
A legit question: at this point, is there a template for that kicker? I mean, are you following specific rules in terms of measurements for the kicker in that spot? I guess the anwser is yes, like in a snow park, but I don't know, I am very curious about it.
By the way, you are all insane. Just the speed alone is scary as fck.
Kinda, we just looked at old videos and knew where to build the jump and knew to try and mellow out the compression as much as possible… heavy one!
"I broke my ankles!!!!!!!!!"
Where is this??
Chads gap, little north of Alta
Did Nik ever get that back rodeo 5? That was fucked
Nah he wrecked pretty tough, would have been sick
What the fuck indeed! Sage's? last trick in slowmo was cool, but then cut to the real time shot...holy shit he's flyin'!
Fastest double 12 i’ve ever done easily
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Estas como una puta cabra!!!!! min 2 para ver la velocidad en el primer pegue y 5:30 para ver la toma al natural! simplemente el puto rey del spot!
Fuckin awesome!!!!!!!!!
1260!?
Soooo fucking epic!
