- Skiing bell to bell with Andrew Pollard and John Collinson for a day is no joke. They know the terrain in Little Cottonwood Canyon better than almost anyone, after all, they both grew up skiing and living in the canyon, and that's just the type of person you want to be with on a powder day. We hit classic lines, and a plethora of jumps, cliffs and features it was awesome.

“Follow him until you get scared” 😂 speaking for all of us mortals over here
Good mantra for sure haha
Andrew's skiing scares the shit out of me (in a good way). No fear, all skill. He owns that mountain.
Thx Sage!
Heck yeah!
So cool to see Johnny again! I remember I met him at an event a few years ago and I asked him who his favorite skiers were. He mentioned you! I didn't know anything about skiing at the time but now here I am always waiting for the next video.
That’s awesome! Glad to hear you’ve got a he ski stoke bug! It’s just the best.
Andrew flat rips! That line by the tram tower through the rocks was insane. I thought I knew Alta and Snowbird ... you guys are skiing it so differently than I do!
That he does! One of my favorite people to watch and ski with hands down!
This series has been so sick to watch! Thank you Sage!
Thanks for watching!!
“Those are probly fine” to Apol’s factions had me laughing after two dudes skiin atomics rode by 😂
😉
Best video so far! Pollard looks impossible to keep up with. I live in CO but had an epic bell to bell day at the bird last year, with 12 in falling during the day on top of 12 from the night before. Hit some great stuff but would have loved to have had someone with a fraction of the knowledge of apoll showing me around!
thanks, and Spot on.. he's Fast and good. Sounds like you timed it right!
"I don't know about that" I say this all the time with my buddies lol
Hahaha
Wow!!! Thanks for the stoke!! Sick and inspirational.
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks for watching!
Look so fun! I am going to watch 10 times for sure.
😊😊
That LCC blower powder… been out to Snowbird and Alta many times this season but you guys are skiing a different mountain lol unreal! Get this channel more subs.
It’s good out there for sure!! And 🙏👊
Apoll is a beast
For sure!
Well that looked pretty epic!! A Poll is just freaking ridiculous!!!
So true! Thanks for watching!
Man these are so fun to watch. Gets me motivated to get better and stronger to be able to hit those feature without completely blowing up.
Glad to hear it and that’s the way! As Andrew says, no backslaps, only jumps. Lol
You guys are sick skiers and an inspiration. Especially John!!
For sure! He’s had some ups and downs and it’s been great to shred w him this yr
Your commentary so spot on!
Haha thanks!! Fun times
It's what dreams are made of. Love it
Thanks!!
It's been so fun skiing Alta/Snowbird this season then watching your videos to see what the big kids do with that stuff!
Good to hear you have been getting after it!!
@@sagePerspective and don't worry, all Andrew's hits are safe from me. 😂
@@DirtWireTV hahah ! send it !!
That hit around 16:53 is friggin unbelievable. Looks like it unintentionally turned into a double, haha
solid stuff!
These are great. Thanks Sage!
Thank you!
"Stompy Perfect" might be the best description ever.
Hahah so true!
Another day in PARADISE!!!! ❤❤❤
You bet!
Best POVs on youtube! Keep the good work!
Much appreciated!
Sick video, APoll going off!
thanks! That is what he does!
Loved it!
Stoked on a slightly longer edit. I’ll be on a long flight, good timing!
Longest yet by a ways, glad your digging. I had a lot of footage from this day so went with it.
So good!
thanks for watching!
Love it!! ❤❤❤
🙏
5:53 ….Woah… 😂
my sons and me would love to ski with you guys!
👊👊
Another LCC banger!
👊👊
Such an insane video! I skied alta/snowbird for the first time this week and it was mindblowing. Was this on monday?
It’s been a cycle! This was back in the beginning of the month
Berry berry deep😊
super dope
👊thanks
Sick!
👊
I need to stop secretly watching your videos while at work. Alternatively, maybe I should keep doing it till I get fired and spend the rest of my life learning how to rip like you guys.
Hahah hard to sneak this one as it’s the longest one to date. Thanks for watching either way and send it!
3:00-3:30 sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Looks even better than Japan. Source: I live and ski in Japan.
In addition to this season's bad conditions in Japan, the peak snow season is generally quite short compared to western USA/Canada & the Alps. One of those things you learn while living here because the Japanese ski industry's marketing would never reveal this. Also, in my experience, Utah pow is drier than Hokkaido pow. On a good year though, Hokkaido & Tohoku are great between mid-January to late February.
Sick
Thanks!
Last Thurs/Fri? Was sooo good!
This was back in the 6th, but glad it’s been in the flow!
@@sagePerspective so good this month!!
Sage how long will you be at Alta/Bird? I'm coming next week it would be sickkk to take some laps with you!
I was there back on the week of the 6th, that’s when this was filmed. Enjoy and next time!
Epic day and great cross-court lines/hits. Fun to see how you guys dissect a mountain! Interesting choice though... to pull out the Maverick's out on a day like this with just 100mm underfoot. A number of choices in the Atomic line for these conditions... and I know you could make barrel staves work... but why the Mav's?
The skis he’s on are next year’s Maverick 115’s
ok, that makes more sense!... but I dont understand why the Mfg's use the same color/graphics on different width skis (like the old white salomon 106 and 112). It just causes consumer confusion and makes it hard to position the ski in the company's line-up based on its own individual merits. Thanks for clarifying! @@carterhudson2306
Thanks and glad you dig it. These are a new maverick that I was testing last season and worked with the team to help develop. It’s a 115 ( also there is a 105) similar to the current Mav as a ski area charger, with bigger floatation, and more playfulness. It’s a really fun ski. Great for the ski hill and charging hard.
@@sagePerspective Nice! Unfortunately, just picked up some Blank 112's- which a lot of people on line are comparing to the new Mav 115s - wish I woulda known! Just an observation from a marketing brand guy who cant turn it off... Ideally Atomic should be using different colors/graphics to distinguish it from their other skis or from the 100mm Mav in this case... and.... it seems Atomic is getting a lot of overlap in their line-up which can cause consumer confusion and limit a ski's ability to establish its own identity... to say nothing about impacts on manufacturing and marketing costs. I'm available should Atomic need some guidance :) And... I will be trying the 115's...because you da' man :)
@@batman50ish Graphic wise it is similar to the 100 with the white, so I understand where your at. Over lap wise, If you look year to year the 24-25 line up actually reduces that factor. between Backland, Bent, and Maverick the line is more refined, with more well defined categories and sizes. Backland now is touring/BC focused. Bent- playfull powder, and Mav is all about ski hill charging. Good perspective and thoughts for sure! and enjoy the fresh skis, and if you get a chance to try the Mav 115!
When was this storm? I just left last wednesday.. even more pow?!?
This was Feb 6th!
Where is the hit at 14.04 looks so sick
You’ll have to Venmo Andrew for that info 😜
