Around the end of March I improved my form a lot better and also bought the Armada ARV 116 which is a little softer.

J'étais pisteur secouriste dans les Alpes françaises (Les 7 Laux dans le massif de Belledonne) C'était dans les années 80. Nous avons fait un échange. Un pisteur (une pisteuse) était allée aux States et nous avons reçu un pisteur de Snowbasin et sa compagne le temps d'une saison. Un grand type barbu avec un look de trappeur. Je ne me souviens plus de son nom. Gene peut être. S'il voit cette vidéo et lit mon commentaire ça serait sympa qu'il y réponde. Quand ses pistes étaient fermées il lançait à la radio "that's all folks !" PS : mon nom est Maurice et ma copine qui travaillait aux remontées mécaniques s'appelait Nicole.

I create my own original cinematics, transitions, and experiences. I get inspiration from Lucas for sure, but saying there is "no originality" in this just ain't true. Aside from the thumbnails that I'm creating better / more original designs for, the actual content from my video is inspired by how I felt it should be when I was actually skiing this day. Obviously I get ideas from him that I think help my videos but that doesn't mean I'm just shamelessly copying his videos bit by bit.

This was one of the most infuriating editing processes I have ever had. It took about 3 days to export this video. It took about 20 attempts on two different computers until I finally got the video produced. It should have been out in April. Sometimes I just can't do anything about it though, the editing process can sometimes (honestly most of the time) be out of my control. So, please let me know what you thought of this video by commenting, good or bad so I know it was worth the headache. And if you enjoyed it please give it a like and consider subscribing.

I gotta say that this is probably the best ski for me or at least one of them. I've tried softer skis / many demo days to figure out what suits me best and from experience I definitely say I prefer this ski over all of them. I also have an ARMADA ARV 116 which I love on powder days that I think is a little bit of a softer ski. Every ski definitely does have it's strengths and weaknesses though but as an all mountain / freeride ski for me it's definitely what I feel the most comfortable with. Also this day isn't the best judgment just due to bad leg pain I had. Some of my other videos like at Revelstoke or Lake Louise definitely give a better indication of the skiing. I've goofed around just looking at other skis for fun but haven't really felt any need to change anything. My issue primarily is leg strength which I've been working out every day on the off season so far to improve, and skill which is something I try to improve in everyday and that naturally comes over time.

People in Leavenworth were looking at you weird because Leavenworth is a 35 mile drive from Steven's Pass. Who wears ski boots in the car for that long? Please tell me you don't drive like that. Also, if you can't get your skis on at the top of the Bobby Chute, you're in the wrong place. It's a perfectly adequate place to gear up and should take less than 30 seconds.
@themichaelbilello7 ай бұрын
This video was filmed a couple of years ago. The bobby chute was still not above my ability at this point but it was a big challenge so I don’t regret anything. I think it’s important (at least for myself) to push my boundaries. Don’t really remember why I was having so much trouble getting my skis on but I haven’t really thought about it too much since then, I just want to get a better run through there. And no I don’t drive like that because I didn’t even have my drivers license at that point. I don’t really think it’s a big deal if I decided I want to chill in my ski boots for that long ride.

Another excellent video by Michael B. CB’s famous Headwall chutes and then the ultimate Banana chute prove to me beyond a reasonable doubt, traverses are the scariest part of skiing, either above some unreal feature like sheer cliffs with no snow, or cliffs with rocks and shrubs and trees poking it , both looking impossible to ski if one slipped off or fell of the relevant traverse, same goes for traversing below some cliff where the risk of an avy from above is high. Great video as skier is candid, and of course fearless and is definitely excellent at negotiating terrain but you tell me, you don’t seem to be an expert skier but self-taught superb negotiator of terrain. Thanks for the video . PS: Haven’t skied them but the Banana Chute looked like a steep gully in A-basin, anyone can corroborate or refute that visual conjecture ?
@themichaelbilello7 ай бұрын
At this time I would say was my second season really getting the grip of true "expert terrain". If I were making this video today I would definitely have a much smoother lap in the chute, in fact I have a video skiing "Funnel" from last season where I noticed major improvement in my traversing and skiing. My dad is responsible for teaching me how to ski and I gotta give lot's of credit to lessons I've taken at this mountain! Also, you're definitely right about traversing being the scariest part of skiing for the most part! Especially at this mountain...
