Love this run… haven’t been to Val/Tignes in 10 years but I still remember the burn. In my younger days I did top to bottom non stop but no way I could do that now!
Just back from Tignes skied Glacier from the top one day and Descente the next thought there was little between them on those 2 days although I was a bit worried at first on Descente as literally everyone got off the car and went straight on to Glacier leaving me as the only one to choose Descente. Only my 2nd time in Tignes /Val D’isere after a gap of 20+ years but possibly my best ever ski trip!
Nice video. Brings back treasured memories. I skied this run almost 40 years ago with a Sony Walkman (music player) listening to Telegraph Road by Dire Straits. One of the most enjoyable runs of my life. I've just watched your video while playing Telegraph Road alongside and it still fits perfectly!
Thank you Ivo for uploading this video, I was suppose to go to Tignes in week 10 this year, but due to Covid the travel was cancelled, so nice to feel the rush via the video, I know the piste like my own pocket!
Good quality video footage and a good safe and competent bit of skiing, really brought back memories of what I've been missing for the last 2 years in my favourite resort! However it might be nicer without the music so that we can hear the skies on the snow as it tells me a lot about how it is particularly on that last descent after the right hand bend that takes you down the line of the chair lift. It does look in great condition all the way down although IMHO you are perhaps going down about an hour early regarding optimum sun conditions which is almost exactly 1200. FYI I've skied the area for the last 30 years or so and that descent down the face of the glacier that finishes at the bottom of the Vanoise lift has changed out of all recognition a real reminder of global warming.
The longest run is in L'Alpes D'Huez ,Piste de la Sarenne,french southern Alps, 16 km! And near Val d'Isère, in Les Arcs ,Aiguille Rouge run: 8 km, from 3200m to 1200 m in the valley ( Villarogers)
Been their done that on my last morning, and in brilliant sunshine...so went back and did it again in the afternoon....it near zero vis at top...that wee black off to the side was interesting!
This is not the longest run but a great video nevertheless. Your video really brought back memories of what I've been missing for the last 5 years at one of my favourite resorts! I love Tignes!
Nice ski run. I notice they have made significant efforts to farm snow - notice where the machines have created paralel lines in the snow so that when it blows around it gets caught.
Thanks! Yes, this is common thing for all high altitude resorts to preserve snow. This allows to collect more snow for longer season or even summer skiing.
Looks great ! I have never seen grooming like that in my previous 6-8 trips to Val d Isere/ Tignes.There is another 3 k run called Sache from Aig.Percee 2750 m to 1550 Tignes , 100 % black , good for braking knees ...Wish someone post footage of that beauty.
If Tignes/Val Claret has a scent it is Pierre Cardin pour monsieur. They both are born out of the the same french contemporary modernism. I was there when Tignes was oozing with PC.
Remember not to stop in the middle of a slope, especially if it's a top of a hill. Not only it is annoying, but also dangerous. For instance, those who are fast skiers might bump you. Take care. Otherwise, great video!
Классно смотреть! Остается входить в образ по Станиславскому и получать удовольствие . придомашнем просмотре. особенно когда перед камерой Андрюха? в красной куртке.
Спасибо за комментарий! Да, когда впереди кто-то маячит - выглядит намного динамичнее. В красной куртке - это Сашка, а Андрюху мы потеряли ... но потом нашли ... :)
Sorry for being critical. As a long time ski pro I am always watching a skiers technique, you could eliminate your upper body rotation and increase ski performance by not reaching from the shoulder to plant your poles but rather just use wrist and forearm action. Hopefully this will help you will create more angulation (at your waist) instead of banking a straight upright body into the turn with a little stronger outside ski. Keep having fun and try to make some railway tracks in the snow.
Hi! Thank you for your comment. I mean the continuous run from top to bottom through various pistes. Yes, Génépy is the longest single blue piste (4.5km). Have a nice day!
Hi! Thank you for your comment. I mean the continuous run from top to bottom through various pistes. Yes, Sache is the longest single black piste (3km), but there are longer pistes on the resort, for example blue piste Génépy (4.5km). I skied from top to bottom through the Sache piste, including top blue and bottom red pistes and it was only 4.2km long. Check the video of this run below. Have a nice day! ua-cam.com/video/0jGF2rq9GdE/v-deo.html
Hi! Glad you noticed that. Yes there is another Face - 'Face de Bellevarde', in Val d'Isere, you're right. But Tignes has its own 'Face' - you can check the map if you don't believe me ... 😀👍
I don't understand... The slop are not closed in France??? I'm french and I love snowboarding but since last year the gouvernment tell us all all the lifts are closed...??? Can you explain me how can you skiing??? Thanks!!! For your video too!!!

Same for me , 30 years of Val , I am78 now and cry whenI see this run, sniff , so so good sking.
Just booked flights for feb 23……can’t wait!
Brilliant video thankyou, I ran a chalet in val claret, brought back great memories ❤️
Such a nice place to go skiing❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thanks for sharing this. I love Tignes! I finished my 2016/17 season there and it's one of my favourite places. God I miss the mountains!
Thank you! ... 😀👍
@@ivokoimecs Once I'm able to comfortably ski red runs, I'll try this run myself, thou not as fast as you and your friends skied it.
Freaking Fantastic! I need to ski there. The funicular and the telepherique are amazing.
There’s nothing like skiing the Alps! Gorgeous.
Couldn't agree more! ... :)
You should try Zermatt 😍👍
@@dollyseguin1386 I have skied Zermatt and absolutely loved it! ❤️
Great footage. These images bring back memories of my youth when I was skiing in the summer of 1980. Thanks for sharing. like
Thanks! ... 😀👍

My friend and I was there last season for the first time....... fantastic area, fantastic skiing !!!
Thank you! ... 😀👍
Great video. We are off to Tignes in 7 days. Can’t wait to try this run.
Great run, I’ve done it many times!
Many thanks for lovely video.
J'ai fait exactement la même descente dimanche dernier. La Grande Motte est toujours un plaisir à faire en ski 😻⛷️
I enjoyed the whole run 'til the very end👏👏👏👌. Next weekend I'll be taking some runs too. 😄
Thanks! ... 😀👍
I already fell down 3 times while watching :) Nice skiing
Me too .. 🤣👍
How can you fall on slope as flat as a table?
Good video and i liked the music !
Thanks! ... 😀👍

I had blast down this run last Friday sadly not clear day as this video I could not see anything scared hell out me but made it down just fine.

Every time I went up the funicular the final cable car to the top of Grande Motte was always shut due to high winds. Shame, looks amazing here!

Don’t stop in the middle of the piste. One of the first rules you should learn. Good run though.

@@petercrombie6652 or men on UA-cam who think they're funny when they're actually insulting
@@petercrombie6652 ummm mate you're the one who made the sexist remark first
Maybe one day when I can ski better then I current do.
How i miss a mountains.... This season i spend on the 320 m slope near Baltic Sea. Have five !
Good thing you were not in the alps this season, I was in Tignes/Val d'Isère and all the lifts were closed
I have hope to get it back in next season. Take care :)
La Sachem from Aiguille Percee to Les Breviers is the longest run in Tignes / Val D’Isere at 10 Kms, not the run from the Grande Motte.
It’s even better if you drop off the back of the Aiguille Percee and ski off piste to Les Breviers down the Vallon de la Sachette
Been their done that on my last morning, and in brilliant sunshine...so went back and did it again in the afternoon....it near zero vis at top...that wee black off to the side was interesting!
...the Leisse
....should have not watched this, this year, makes me want to weep!

Love it Nice job, Try la sache it is apperently the hardest slope over val
Cool,nice👍🏽
Thanks! ... 😀👍

Good run done it many times however from the top take to the right at the mid station and follow Genopy this takes you to Val Claret main area
Thanks! ... 😀👍
I think the run from "Aiguille Percée" To "Brévières" Is longer, you should try it !

I prefer Pissaillas glacier (3300 m) - Col Pers - Le Fornet in virgin snow.
Amazing when didi you film it? what week of the year ?
Thanks! Please check the description.
I love going down Double M on the left side. I might not go there again. I do not miss some of the idiots abusing the piste.
is genepy not longer ? it´s blue and not so raid... correct me if i am wrong ! 3x 👍👍👍
Hi! Thank you for your comment. I mean the continuous run from top to bottom through various pistes. Yes, Génépy is the longest single blue piste (4.5km). Have a nice day!
Looks amazing! what level of run is this? red? could beginners do this?
Yes, this is red run, not too difficult, but some parts are pretty steep.
This place is beautiful! What a run. But for me, I like slopes with trees.
How much was the day ticket?
Not that expensive, 53 € per day just for the tignes domain. You have to add 10 € more to ski in Val d'Isère.
J'ai skié sur les pistes de tigres en plein mois de juillet groupiron
E prima di arrivare a valle, un giro sulle gobbe della Leisse
What colour run is this? Thanks
This run was through several pistes marked as red, see the diagram in the beginning of the video.
why the music ?
No music, no views. Please check the description, there is a version without music for you ... 😀👍
L O V E !!
Is the top a black piste or is the whole thing red? Noticed that you didn’t go down dicente I didn’t know there was multiple routes down
La Sache is the longest run I think

Why is 'face' in the list of pistes? It's not even on this hill
Hi! Glad you noticed that. Yes there is another Face - 'Face de Bellevarde', in Val d'Isere, you're right. But Tignes has its own 'Face' - you can check the map if you don't believe me ... 😀👍

Are there ANY trees at Europe resorts?
Why aren't you in Sochi?
unless of course your not a tree skier🤔.
As always, a$$$&#@ boarder snakes the line.
This is high altitude resort, most of the pistes are above tree line.
good video except this is not the longest run in tignes and valdisere. The longest is sache at 10 km and trust me that is the right answer.
