      Why I set my dins to 150% of the highest recommended or more. Better to break your legs and still potentially self arrest than to slide uncontrollably into a tree or rock. I've gone sideways between trees and had my bindings hold me from going head first down the slope. Ever since I had my skis release unnecessarily and smack me in the face I've been max din life.

    It seems to me like the difficulty of the run depends a lot on what the snow conditions are like. On the day you filmed this, it looked to me like there was plenty of snow, but the entry chute looked so narrow that there was nowhere to turn. I can't handle that much speed so I probably would've fallen there. I've seen other days where there's less snow but the chute is wider, if that's possible.

    • @jayxnina
      @jayxnina  Рік тому +6

    I skied it in April of 86'. No goat path, you just jumped in from the side and did a mid-air kick turn... or you did a faceplant into the rocks. Then it opens up but you are aware that everyone on the tram can see you so you have to finish it. I don't care what the snow's like, if you can look into that beast and jump in... you have balls.

      When I was there probably 20 years after you there was no goat path either. I don’t remember the jump in being so significant though either.
      I am sure it changes pretty drastically by the snow conditions for the year. But, your description is perfect for how I remember it. You just had to jump in and hope for the best.

    @neilwinkelmann8540 7 місяців тому +1

    I might have a foggy memory, but go back long enough, and the "goat path" into Corbett's wasn't really a thing. It was an 8' straight drop from the lip, then try to check your speed before getting hung up on the sides. I never managed to land it clean, but never lost my gear, either. Effective, if not stylish entrances! Was it the emergence of snowboarders that started the development of the "goat path"? In Whistler, my "home" ski area, the shape of the entrances to the chutes has also changed a lot over the last 30 years. Might be snowboarders, or just more people skiing them a different way. Dunno.

  • @andresamson8859

    Gaping the 20-25 ft skier right entry let you land high enough where people aren’t able to get too, but be ready to dump some speed afterward, because it GOES!
    Then you have the King of Corbets style entry, but conditions really needs to be ON.

    Great vid and nice work on the phases, super accurate! But, if we're being honest, even though Corbet's gets all the attention, it's definitely not the hardest in North America, there are several that are more stout, AZ Chutes in Big Sky, Air Jordan in Whistler, heck even the East Wall at Araphaoe Basin, just two name a few. This has nothing to do with your actual video but I do think it's interesting and I've always wondered why Corbet's gets so much attention and is often labeled as the hardest run. I'd be curious what other people think but my theory is that this happens because it's hard, but it's still accessible and skiable even for average skiers. It's relatively low risk so you get a lot of wa-hoos and yard sale videos online which ams up the views and popularity. And at one point in time it was probably the hardest named, in-bounds run back in the day so maybe that label just stuck with it? All I know is that I've skied Corbet's several times without issue and yet merely standing next to AZ chutes and nearly shit my pants.

The drop in looked less than it is here, but it was a true drop in. No side/sliding into the run. No goat path. You just had to commit to maybe a 3-5ft drop into a double black chute. Hope you didn’t fall, or were moving so fast when you hit the ground that you flew into the cliff walls.

Oh, and you need a pack/peeps/shovel/pole/SKI PATROL SIGN-OFF (you can’t just ski up to it and slide to a single jump turn and the run is done). Jackson is so pretending with CC 😂

      @@jayxnina yea so there are 2 couloirs inbound at whistler that are marked, one is the famous couloir extreme (not hard at all), and the couloir on whistler that is only open so rarely within the season. It is also usually extremely sketchy and super exposed. And there are some good triple blacks all over the mountain, most of them not marked though so you could use like fatmaps to find them but just be careful when trying to get there it can be pretty dangerous

    I don’t think this is anywhere near the most difficult run in North America. Tuckermans ravine in New Hampshire is longer and steeper and way more difficult and there’s probably a many other skate runs that are a lot harder than this.

      The snow is always bad on the drop in but once youre in the couloir, it is always some of the best snow on the entire mountain. This is because its protected-north facing and barely ski’d.

  • @ryansummers4661
    @ryansummers4661 Рік тому +1

    all wrong not a single track on the far side, you ski down the initial jump to the far side to slow you then easy out, or just go right off top and its a 20 to 25 foot drop with nice slightly steep landing to ski right out of, if your slowing yourself at any point, besides the cushion far side, your not doing it right and shouldnt be there, the slope takes you right to that rock so thats why its dangerous

      Corbetts gets shaped differently all the time throughout the season depending on storm cycles and how people are skiing it beforehand.
      Going off the top is definitely the right way to ski it, however, this is the “easy” way for people who aren’t as confident
