    Hi Alex, this ski video was exceptional, maybe not only to me. Was like a skiing road movie. With speed and challenges faced.
    You are a very brave and skillful skier. With great stamina too. You legs have power and csn hsndle lot of lactase without tiring.
    In the first clip the slope was very demanding , and partially unskiable. More like rough off piste than a black slope. Its suitable for a very small section of experienced riders, and even them its a challage to ski in a very controlled way.
    Its difficult to comment ( if even necessary) the technicality of your skills. You managed the challenging moguls in a subtle way.
    It would be interesting to see a video shooted from down up, when you hit a black slope. Then we could get better impression how it looks like as a whole.
    To sum up this all, this was so far the best compilation of black runs shown in UA-cam. ⛷️
    Well done. Thank U 4 sharing 👍
