A landing as bad as you will see

Huge air followed by a shocking landing – just needed a bit more speed and air time but those small margins…
Wrong line – finding a pebble in the Atlantic

“Go left dude and fast!”
Really great powder line and then bang, very, very wrong route. Impressive ability to find rocks in what is an untracked off-piste paradise .
Second day on skis and circa. 20m air – hero!

Light reprieve – this had to hurt but at least there was visible movement from the victim. The cameraman has a great time watching from the safety of the rear of the camcorder. The best thing about this one is that it is apparently the second day ever on skis for the ‘victim’. In that [...]

When you see the guy in ski goggles and not even a hat you hope he is film crew

……alas, no, nein, non. He breaks many fashion rules but crucially sets off on this Alaskan descent with just his golden locks as cranial protection. Early into the route his straight skis throw him out and what follows is a less than controlled descent.
