It didn’t go great, so I did it again.  Didn’t go great again. But I was fortunate enough to run into professional freeskier Connery Lundin and he […]

VIDEO: How Not To Throw A Crowd Pleasing Backflip Off The Palisades At Squaw Valley, CA

Tyler Curle attempted to throw this insane backflip off of the Palisades at Squaw Valley, CA. It looks so sick until you realize that he over rotated really close to the landing. He eats it pretty good and then proceeds to get up and signal that he is alright. We have to applaud him for this attempt, we are just […]

Crash of the Week: Monster 50-Foot Backflip to Vicious Faceplant…

Funny what happens when you go so big that wind resistance over-powers gravity.” – Mike Douglas

VIDEO: Insane 140-Foot Backflip with 3.1-Seconds of Free Fall…

[iframe id=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/eJtncGEtd_0″] Skip to 8:55 in this video. These guys are nuts.  The peak of the insanity is when this guy throws a 140-foot backflip off a cliff into water… The balls and skills it would take to do that? He said that he was 10 miles from the nearest town/hospital when he did this stunt.  If anything went wrong […]

Crash of the Week: Mt. Baker Road Gap Up-Side-Down FACEPLANT…

When you go for the Baker road gap, you wanna make sure that you get plenty of air.  If you throw a backflip and you think you’re gonna end up short, you wanna tuck your legs into your chest to increase your angular velocity and get those skis under your body. This guy does neither and pays a hefty price…

VIDEO: Guy Throws Huge Backflip – Almost Lands on Rock – @ Treble Cone, NZ

big backflip ski treble cone new zealand

Damn, that landing was really really close to a large rock. If this guy had landed 3 feet to the left, he’d likely have gotten extremely injured. Scary… But, he didn’t land on the rock and landed in nothing but pure powder and skied away. Gosh, but we can’t stop thinking about that rock. Especially since this landing required a bit of a backslap to get things back in control. Imagine backslapping that […]

VIDEO: “Getting Stupid in Las Lenas” – August 2015

Las lenas scary lines

Our buddy Dorian got stupid in Las Lenas in early August this summer. Some of these lines are, well, kinda silly. Very high penalty, tight, claustrophobic, scary, rocky, sketchy lines. That’s what this guy is into and that’s what Las Lenas delivers on a platter on powder days. Most the lines in this video were filmed right off the Marte chair. Yep, you just ride up a chairlift to get to these lines. Las Lenas is a couloir skier’s dream come true. If you like big open terrain, there is a bit of that, too. But couloirs are king here.

#TBT VIDEO: Mike Wilson’s 100′ Double Backflip at Squaw 2011

Mike wilson double backflip squaw

Remember Mike Wilson? Double backflips off the Palisades in 2006? Double backflips off Glory Rock in 2011? Double backflips off The Kitchen Wall Cliffs in 2011? Double Backflips off The Fingers in 2011? Double backflips off just about anything he can find? I ran into Mike one day in 2006 and he said: “I’ve hit 3 jumps today and done 6 flips” Yeah, that guy. This video shows us a day in 2011 when Mike did a 100′ double backflip off The Fingers. I saw it in person and it was absolutely insane. He hit so hard that he wasn’t able to ski for a month after […]

Watch 41-yo Seth Morrison Throw a Huge Backflip @ Swatch Skier’s Cup

Seth Morrison is now 41 years old and he’s still got it. Check out how big this backflip is at 1:43 and how he recovers from falling twice in the runout. Most people will never do a backflip that big nor stylish at any point in their life. That Seth can still do that at 41 years of age is damned impressive. Team Europe won the Cup this year but everyone put on a heck of a show. Tough to tell in the video, but the snow was reportedly very punchy and tricky. […]
