tough for me to only pull a handful of clips as every day last year felt like a true blessing and the best day ever! hope everyone is getting stoked for the season!
It’s crazy to me how I remember each one of these runs so clearly! I damn near could have called a few of these specific runs being the best of the year. So cool! Can’t wait for this season to ramp up now
So awesome to see you got pinball taking the crown! Hoping to work up to that level of terrain this season at Crystal. I do think the name of that peak is Silver King but most of the time we just call it the King. Stoked for this season and to keep watching your content man!
I had a feeling Pinball was gonna be number 1. I remember watching that video when it dropped, I was just in awe of the terrain and the amazing shot of Mt Rainier. I got to see her earlier this summer, such a beautiful creation. Great video man
Looking forward to your vids in the upcoming season. You certainly helped motivate a small ski bum trip with my daughters this season. We'll be taking a 5 day trip in Vermont this Dec including a little lot poaching!!! Keep em coming when you can!
just saying, the idea that people would say you suck at skiing is kinda crazy to me. I have done pinball before and I basically just sidestepped the first bit of it and went down the rest very very cautiously, you are a very good skier and I think it is more indicative of a disconnect between the real world and professionals. most people that are being watched are on the world tour or that level and people saying that just cause someone can't do that kind of stuff but can still ski incredibly challenging lines with confidence is terrible is stupid. keep up the good work!
hey man thanks for taking time to write this. i think you're spot on with what you're saying. there is always someone better than you and always someone that you are better than. i never understood tearing someone down because they arent at your skill level. no one is born being a pro skier and if someone is that good, often they should be grateful and supportive of others in the industry. it is what it is and comes with the job here on youtube - so its nice to hear some reinforcement from another shredder like yourself. thank you and maybe ill see you at the top of crystal this year.
Man thank you for all the uploads, such high quality videos you'd think it was coming from a channel with hundreds of thousands of subscribers, will be you some day! Snow season was pretty awful here in Australia and didn't end up doing anything, but, your videos always great to watch and keep the hype up. Thank you!
thank you so much - appreciate the kind words and encouragement. bummer about your season down there. its definitely worth the trek up to the western US if you ever have the opportunity. i might try to head down your way next summer.
Dude, no one should ever tell you that “you suck at skiing”. I’ve skied Philippes with way more snow and it’s crazy steep. The last two runs were almost unskiable and awesome.
Some sick looking runs in here! You said in your gear video you aren't affiliated with Armada or anything, do you just have a love for the brand? Keep up the stoke this coming season!!
Awesome content tks Video idea how about the process of booth fitting may help someone out there. I went today and was impressed and happy to be properly fitted to a set of ski boots. Cant wait to go test them out :)
So stoked to see my mountain as #1. Pinball off Silver king at crystal is one of the best chutes on the entire mountain. Come back and Try out Brain Damage! It’s a bit more open but honestly more fun from start to finish.
@@LucasCatania17Awesome, getting my gear set for this season and looking at the Attack 17’s for myself as well. Hopefully see you on the mountain in Alberta or eastern BC this year!
so fucking hyped now. hoping utah early season is like last year. Btw you shouldn't really be jumping like that when doing 'jump' turns. Try keep the front of the ski always in contact with the snow, then you will land much more smoothly and fall less distance. How I was taught: Plant your pole centred between the back of your ski and heel of your boot, then simply flex your ski boots (don't jump)
Lucus do you have your visiting schedule out yet? I’m going to copper mountain in co for my first time ever in December for the new year, would be sick to find you
tough for me to only pull a handful of clips as every day last year felt like a true blessing and the best day ever!
hope everyone is getting stoked for the season!
Gosh Lucas, opening day is still a month out for me, chill bro you're making me way too eager
same for us here in utah haha!
That’s why he’s posting these videos. To get us hyped!
I love the fact that you can feel the nerves in places and get a sense of how much effort goes into these runs. It's epic skiing, but also relatable.
man that last run got me so hyped up, such a crazy line man you’re one of the best riders i’ve seen. loved the video 😎
thanks man! i was pretty damn fired up haha
Dang! That pinball run was hairy! Nice ! Makes me want to make a top 5 runs of the year as well! 👏🏻👏🏻
ha thanks abe! you have the best POVs out there, so I would love to see that!!
It’s crazy to me how I remember each one of these runs so clearly! I damn near could have called a few of these specific runs being the best of the year. So cool! Can’t wait for this season to ramp up now
hell yeah dude! lots of good ones to choose from!
That pcmr cliff to narrow tree chute thing was sick!
Skiing steep zones at a resort you've never been to is daunting for sure. This vid is classic Lucas skiing, stoked!
thanks man! im definitely more comfortable skiing the resorts in utah, but hopefully that changes a bit this year!
Beautiful compilation! And congrats on those tougher runs, handled like a pro!
Awesome video Lucas! Pinball looks insane!
thanks avi! it was fun!
So exited for ski season those runs were beautiful
me too man - glad you liked them!
I can’t believe you split those trees!!! @4:20
That’s crazy!!!! 😂😂😂. That’s not the line I would have taken lol

thanks ben! it was great meeting you last year and maybe i will see you out there again this season!
Ah man what a video loved it as always! Cant wait to see some canadian resorts this coming season 👏

Thanks for blessing us with your hard work!
Such a humble nice dude 🤙
i really appreciate that chad. thank you for taking time out of your day to watch.
Thank you for this October content Lucas, sight for sore eyes
my pleasure man thank you for watching.
I remember being super stoked after watching the pinball run, super glad it was included!
hell yeahhh man in retrospect, not sure why i did that haha but glad i did!!
I had a feeling Pinball was gonna be number 1. I remember watching that video when it dropped, I was just in awe of the terrain and the amazing shot of Mt Rainier. I got to see her earlier this summer, such a beautiful creation. Great video man
Don’t spoil it pls
@@DrJonRosenthal lol then don’t read the comments until the video is over
it really is man. hard to understand it until you see rainier in person. thanks for watching!
The daily chute looked narly!! 🔥
yeah man super steep haha!

love to hear that sam! super stoked to hear about it and pumped that you are doing it with your daughters!
Great video! That drop off filippes was intense. yewww!
yeww! one of my favorite runs from last year bro!
Thank you! Finally some Mammoth love. See you out here this winter/spring. We'll take some runs.
Finally? All of the videos I have put out about Mammoth express my love for that place..
#6 ??? Come on.@@LucasCatania17
I do appreciate you taking the time to show me your van at the end of the day in the chair 2 parking lot last spring/summer.@@LucasCatania17

First time down Philippe's 🤯 the stoke is HIGH
These hype videos are so good
glad you like them man!

@@LucasCatania17Australian snow sucks. If you're going south, come to Chile man!
Great video!! As always
thanks man!!
The bowls on Bald Mountain SunValley. Also, Flying Squirrel is a great, long, enjoyable run. And this year, it's cut longer.
Dude, no one should ever tell you that “you suck at skiing”. I’ve skied Philippes with way more snow and it’s crazy steep. The last two runs were almost unskiable and awesome.
i appreciate that man! i've heard it all at this point haha.
I can’t take it anymore!! I can’t start skiing until mid to late December. These videos are making me very envious 😂
thats still pretty early brother!! just getting you extra stoked!
Lets go....cant wait for 23/24 season!
gonna be the best one yet!
Yeayy
hello ;)
!!!!!
Some sick looking runs in here! You said in your gear video you aren't affiliated with Armada or anything, do you just have a love for the brand? Keep up the stoke this coming season!!
Thanks man! Yeah just really love their skis and the athletes they support!
“At this point my leg’s are saying -I love you , love the stoke squad, but we just don’t got it anymore”. To that I say- BUCKLE UP BUTTER CUPS!
haha yea exactly!!
Awesome content tks
Video idea how about the process of booth fitting may help someone out there. I went today and was impressed and happy to be properly fitted to a set of ski boots. Cant wait to go test them out :)
yeah that is a great idea! Id love to have someone to film during the process though rather than just talk about it myself!
Philips' air in between the rocks was a sick move.... camera footage never does it justice as to how steep the terrain really is!
Thanks Joe. You need to try main chute this year.
I have Mammoth and Snowbird set up this year! It's 8 days in Utah so I will hit the other hills at some point.
nice man! honestly dont need to go to many other mountains besides those ones!
So stoked to see my mountain as #1. Pinball off Silver king at crystal is one of the best chutes on the entire mountain. Come back and Try out Brain Damage! It’s a bit more open but honestly more fun from start to finish.
i think thats on my list for when I got back! definitely a super rad area you have there!
Yeww, not long now homie!
yup! season should be starting over here in NA!!
Lucas Amazing as always great stoke! love the unedited clips and shows how much work and huffing and puffing is needed to get these lines! 👍⛷
Phillipes, Gnarly dude.👍
Lucas just discovered your channel a week ago. Cannot wait for this season man! What was your ski/binding setup for the Pinball run?
thanks man - welcome to the channel! i was using the 2023 armada ARV 106 with tyrolia attack 17s for that run.
@@LucasCatania17Awesome, getting my gear set for this season and looking at the Attack 17’s for myself as well. Hopefully see you on the mountain in Alberta or eastern BC this year!
when do you think your coming to colorado? hoping opening day is this weekend!
as soon as they announce an opening day, ill head out there!
bro is the best skiier he is literally my idol
not even close brother but i appreciate it.
so fucking hyped now. hoping utah early season is like last year. Btw you shouldn't really be jumping like that when doing 'jump' turns. Try keep the front of the ski always in contact with the snow, then you will land much more smoothly and fall less distance. How I was taught: Plant your pole centred between the back of your ski and heel of your boot, then simply flex your ski boots (don't jump)
thanks for the guidance, man! i will have to try that out next time in that jump turn situation!
@@LucasCatania17nice, you're a fucking beast of a skier btw
Hey Luc SnowRunner , have you ever ski Big White Ski Resort in Keloma BC ?
I have not!
Lucus do you have your visiting schedule out yet? I’m going to copper mountain in co for my first time ever in December for the new year, would be sick to find you
nice man! i don't really put out a "schedule" of where im gonna be as its really hard to stick to it!
Hopefully the stars align then hahahaha I’m stoked
🐐
what is montec good for?
Great video s
thank you!
Crustal gang in the chat!
haha! sick mountain!
So hyped for the season! What website/app did you use to map out those runs? So sick!
those were just from a website called fatmaps!
How’s the battery life for the x3 while skiing???
I don’t use the x3. This is the GoPro max.
Keep it going Lucas we're getting fired up oh yeah we can smell the snowflakes
thanks jack!
If you make it back to Mammoth Hemlock and Hole In the wall.could be epic again this season we will see.Thanx for the videos.
