Some men gotta watch the super bowl, some men gotta watch the Stanley cup, hell; some even have to watch the World Cup... As for me - just give me the Natural Selection Tour - Thanks Travis Rice for making all my viewing daydreams come true! Been waiting for this since 2013!
Me as well, I have Zero interest in any balled sports, i like to play basketball and hockey or whatever i am active but never watch besides the random game on at a friend or families house. I am a two wheel fanatic but i cant stand watching motorcycle races besides a little motocross time to time. Nascar so boring to me. I should mention i never skied or snowboarded in my life. But if all i could watch is natural selection, be fine with me, and add RedBull rampage to that. its basically the same idea on MTB. Natural selection and Rampage for life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i am 40 years old and never once has a balled sport sparked any interest to me.
Travis Rice & Red Bull are really setting the bar high for 2021 as far as competitive live production goes. This is phenomenal. The drone coverage is next level. Stoked!!!
Although I’ve always been ‘stoke’ adverse (to using the word, not the feeling;)... I’ve NEVER seen the word used in such a way that inspired me to perhaps start liking it. You may have just converted me, Great comment!
Amazing event. BUT: Commentators, please wake up. The first run of McMorris was insane and you were in other planet. Drone quality, should be better. But anyway, this contest is awesome. I hope we will see many many more 😊
It was very smooth, but I think it was just so obvious how much better it was than his competition during that round, they didn’t want to flog an already dead horse...
Re drone quality: opinion noted, but what we saw has never been done before in this format, it is cutting edge. Higher quality camera rigs like used in movie production simply cannot navigate through trees and react quickly enough to get the tight shots we just witnessed. So the racing rigs used here are limited in size and weight, presenting unique problems and limitations with transmission gear, camera size and gimbal movement. The 2 pilots are among the best in the world and a very few could handle this task. My hats off to them. I do agree it can and will get better. If they had the $$ that F1 has, it would be better faster. The rigs they are flying are in the $15-18k range.
I think they need a screen at the bottom that the riders can actually see. I love hearing them talk to each other about their runs afterwards, but multiple riders (Including TRice) saying it's hard to see.
Fantastic job on this event. Kudos to the drone pilots @gab707 and @jetfpv and the design / production team behind them. Great stuff guys. This is the future!
Honestly I cannot understand how Nicolas Müller was not nominated to compete. So many of these riders are obviously inspired by his style of riding powder. Arms up for balance and style, those Nosebutters and Methods...that is just Mullair signature style!!!
When the riders enter the end zone I do wish the commentators would be quiet so we can hear the interaction between the riders. That would definitely be a plus.
Yea i was laughing because one of the riders said one sentence, and the commentator starts talking over them saying "i love how we can hear their conversation at the bottom" and they keep on talking over them so we couldnt hear shit lmao wtf
Never got a close look but I think the footage is coming from the upcoming (yet to be released to market) DJI FPV Drone which pairs with previously released DJI digital HD goggles.
Great competition but I think Chris Rasman should have won that over Travis Rice His third run was far better. Maybe Chris Rasman should have organised the event.
Seeing these boys ride pow features with my man Sal commentating is like a warm home cooked meal of some soul food. Love the field of ladies in this event also!
I don't think he got snubbed, but it was definitely close. I think in all honesty they didn't do a good job of matching up the talent levels. If this is a contest like the road to the final four, semis, champion, the best way to match the riders is the best to the worst, because that allows the better riders to compete longer and eventually the two best face each other, and I could see this heat with Travis and Rasman could have been a final or semi final heat for sure. We just saw it go down in Round 1.
@@alev4287 yeah for sure but it’s hard to give player rankings out when some don’t even compete in these type of competitions. Thus them picking their own spots.
@@MowyDaLawn man how good is Mark? I haven't kept up with snowboarding like i used to, but Mark is my new favorite rider. I love how humble and stoked he is for others and how he thought about Jake, props to all!
can anyone please tell me if I was f*kin halucinating or there actually was a dj playing set during the live stream after the natural selection (I was listening to it and loved the set) ? I cannot find the dj or at least mention of him anywhere. Anyone help? :D

I’ve been snowboarding for over 30 years, and I can tell you I really struggle with virtually every commentator in every competition coverage. It’s just cringe. This woman says she’s never seen the competitors being nice to each other and having a good time. She clearly doesn’t know much about snowboarding, that’s the norm in snowboarding.

So sick. Thst course looked insane. I would have screamed from top to bottom and probably not even cared about hitting those jumps.
This is the kind of snowboarding that inspires real stoke.
I can't express how happy and grateful I am to be able to watch this
This is the kind of competition I love to watch, I’m mostly a skier and this makes me want to go pick out a new board and shred. Great for the sport.
Although I’ve always been ‘stoke’ adverse (to using the word, not the feeling;)... I’ve NEVER seen the word used in such a way that inspired me to perhaps start liking it. You may have just converted me, Great comment!
Jesse Vang you
I REALLY like how this format sort of emulates surf contests. It's an awesome format and I'm stoked to see this contest come to life!
Ben Ferguson’s method may be the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen
I love that this format is getting more and more popular. so much more style.
This reminds me of playing "Steep"
Steep sucks, if you want to play something that is actually like snowboarding get Infinite Air or The Snowboard Game
@@kellykubik4514 hell yeah, didnt even know those games existed
X Games Pro Boarder!
@@kellykubik4514 Those games are trash
@@kao380 your skier kid right
Marks qualifying run 5 literally gave me goosebumps. What a beauty, Marky Mark!!
So rad to watch after a powder day in Central Park NYC dropping mini cliffs !!!
Super Happy to see Pat Moore make it through to the next round. His last run was insane
Gotta love Jackson Hole. Most extreme terrain in North America 👍
How does it compare to Alaska? I’ve boarded and skied Most places here but those 2
Amazing event. BUT:
Commentators, please wake up. The first run of McMorris was insane and you were in other planet.
Drone quality, should be better.

Personally, Chris Rasmuns first run was my favourite of the competition - so smooth and full of style.

This is it .. the perfect snowboard competition
Fantastic job on this event. Kudos to the drone pilots @gab707 and @jetfpv and the design / production team behind them. Great stuff guys. This is the future!
Red Bull Snow the BEST in the game rn! LFG!! ♥
This was so very enjoyable! Some insane riding!
Such an amazing event. Can't wait to watch it grow and develope. Future of competitive snowboarding right here!

Best competition format in the history of snowboarding. But.... More drones! That drone footage is stunning.

All riders having fun 🏂
Mark might make his mark with this tour. Not that he hasn't already but this dude is on another level right now!
sounds like you just walked in
Finally somebody mentioning absinthe films so many of these riders had incredible parts on amezing Absinthe films movies
Was that part of the TB series? This reminded me of TB7
Gab707, JET, you guys represented the FPV drone community like ambassadors! Well done with the footage!
Boarding starts at 15:25
Thanks
this event is so sick
This is my favorite snowboard comp noooooo doubt
INCREDIBLE. Thank you to all involved!!!
waiting all year for this
makes me wanna go shred the Hole
thanks to everyone to helped put this together! it should be an Olympic comp format
This is badass. I dont know how to snowboard, but i need powder now.
Powder snowboarding is magical
came for the event. stayed for stan because he's epic
Best thing ever brought to snowboarding
A full course reset with 44 inches of snowfall in the last 72 hours!!!
Back to it on Monday when visibility improves I would guess?
I have been waiting for this all year
Amazing event! Amazing Camera Angles!
Just amazing fast line and great performance from rider's , FUN to watch
Yup I’m moving to Jackson this year. Period.
In my opinion the following drones provides amazing shots, but the noise these things make is really nervwrecking...
Exactly what I said. Makes it really annoying to watch sometimes
That roster, basically legends vs legends lmao
No Nicolas muller though, which is interesting.
@@Dan-wq8by true hes probly in AK
They should have a legends contest, I wanna see Dave Downing and Jeremy Jones compete!
Woah! It's like playing Grand Mountain.
Can't wait for Day2!
Commentary is good but I think getting @craigmcmorris in there for some play-by-play and trick breakdown would really kick it up a notch.
you're too kind. It was bad. Next year, they should hire Russell Winfield and Chris Grenier.
@@Nikolebichon Not sure if Russel would be a fan of the those "stiff ski boots" the riders are all wearing these days.
Anna gasser really struggled. Meaning she prob coming back 5x better next year. Really excited to see next year's natural selection
Hits different.
Mark had best runs by far
Always enjoy seeing Mr. Masekela!!!
Never got a close look but I think the footage is coming from the upcoming (yet to be released to market) DJI FPV Drone which pairs with previously released DJI digital HD goggles.
FPV quad with two axis gimbal built and flown by Gab707 from DRL.....
Such an amazing show! Thanks!
This is a great event
Nice to hear Sal miss him at the x games. This though is a better format.
This was SICKKKKKK
This is dope, thanks red bull
Pat Moore a local in my area back in the day!!! NH!!!!best of luck!!
Great competition but I think Chris Rasman should have won that over Travis Rice His third run was far better. Maybe Chris Rasman should have organised the event.

What happened to John Jackson? Why was he not on the roster? Wasn't he elected by the fans as wild card?
I think he's an alternate. Might be at the baldface stop
Chris Rasman got snubbed and Mark McMorris looked insane.

Nothin like seeing Lib Tech boards at a comp!!!!
Makmoris the best-hi from Russia ,siberia
Super sustainable but im gonna trim your branches on the way through Mr tree !
If only the comentators would focus on the action and not the script
I know so irritating, whenever a rider doing awesome trick they chatting nonsense about something else
AMEN!
haha it would be cool to have former competitors just call out the tricks and little details. I just mute and put on some music over it :D
@@JamJar61RS - They’re just chatting nonsense full stop.
Great drones!
Thanks for that kind of stuff! Big up!
can anyone please tell me if I was f*kin halucinating or there actually was a dj playing set during the live stream after the natural selection (I was listening to it and loved the set) ? I cannot find the dj or at least mention of him anywhere. Anyone help? :D
RedBull whats the deal with Quarters. Semis and Finals?! I know weather has been crap but any chance at getting it in today?
Celery Juice for the win on Day 2
Winfield should be in the booth doing commentary 💯
WHEN IS DAY 2??
Nice deep snow
That was sick
Awesome!!!
Celery Juice for the win on Day 2
Amazing
it would be very cash money of you all to make a version somewhere in between 4.5 hours and 2 minutes, k thx
The “bad” quality of the drone shots really brings down an otherwise great event in my opinion. Hope the video quality gets better for the next event
The drone was unbelievable horrendous!!!! They seriously need to hire a decent FPV pilot next time. 🤦♂️
watching this after shredding
announcers need to lay back a little bit and realize that at the end of the day its just a bunch of dudes and chicks taking some rad turns.
the way these guys are boarding im starting to think they should swap the T and the I.
whats about those landings my girls? Looks like Mark Mc Morris supernatural stuff.
i also want that camo jacket !!!
When the riders enter the end zone I do wish the commentators would be quiet so we can hear the interaction between the riders. That would definitely be a plus.
When day2 comes out???
Where's the full video of semifinals?
Psyching!!
Dope event but some weird audio and video quirks
so sick
who is the drone pilot?
You guys should make a skiers field too next year
Is "sfd" straight fucking down?
Nice. Thanks
I fucked up both of my runs at the first NST. But look how quick I can change my goggle lenses!
I’ve been snowboarding and skiing for over 35 years here in Switzerland ( i just came back from a 10 day trip in VERBIER
final fantasy on the sloe snow.

@@JamJar61RS - I’m glad I’m not the only one.
@@TheSonicDeviant the snowboarding speaks more than enough for itself
@@JamJar61RS - Indeed!
Day 2? When?
It says every rider is goofy, someone needs to fix that. Pat Moore and bang are regular
Sweetins insane oversoot at 18:50
Gigi falls and apologizes to the world about a bomb hole. All the girls completely bomb the landings and don’t give af. Typical.
?
lol
Mikkel Bang, champion, yahh
I reckon any one of them could win it.
Sal reminds me too much of the X Games. Makes me want to turn down the volume when he talks.
