Skiing 10km Long Black run - La Sache - 110 km/h - Tignes

Black run la Sache is one of the most magical in the Alpes. At 10 km long it's a steep black most of the way down. It can have moguls all the way down on some occasions.During this run there weren't that many moguls but it was probably about as icy as a piste can get. It is located in Tignes side of the Espace Killy ski domain that Tignes shares with Val-d'Isère.

Love how you can pole along at 50kmph 😂😉

[@runneypo]

speedometer is incorrect

[@alexcanham9371]

The speedometer is lagging behind a lot

[@maxart3392]

NIce recovery after the fall, however your speedometer lags quite a bit

[@Alexskiing]

Hi Max I smooth out the data a bit which gives this effect the problem is if I don't you can get some random GPS readings.

[@Sputnick60]

nice to see your skill and good manners towards your fellow skiers. Also informative to see how you picked yourself up in the slide.

[@alexandrereis246]

Hi Alex, enjoying your videos and a lot of them I am putting into my wishlist :). Like how you show your videos, and that you don't edit your falls and you show 100%. Nice job helping someone in need. Keep up the good work and nice videos.

[@noahbranch3016]

Holy steep! 😂 the moment you fell/sat down is just like damn! As a boarder, I can say this black run looks a little out of my comfort zone 😂

[@Alexskiing]

Hi Noah, the ice does seem a lot more difficult on a board. Unfortnalty that was definitely a fall.

[@ShalomBrother]

What I’ve noticed with the couple of boarders I ski with is that they boot out a lot when it gets steep. They get away with it when the snows softer as their heels/toes dig in and they can still get enough edge grip to stay upright. As soon as it gets hard and icy they’re on their backsides more than they’re upright and neither of them understood why until I pointed it out. If you’ve got big feet or a narrow board it may be worth looking into how much your feet overhang and maybe get a wider board 👍🏼

[@donalddarko3676]

@@ShalomBrother Interesting point. Obviously it is much harder to balance and get an edge on ice. If it is solid ice the best thing is to not put your edge on it. It wont grip and you'll just fall over. As you get on a steep icey run you have to wisely pick where you can slow down.

[@donnyshimmy]

Great vid…nice one helping the fallen skier. Good man!

[@PeterDavis-nj5tc]

I like where he stops to deliver the ski but is still going 13mph😳

I like the bit at the end of helping the crashed skier :-)

Thank You as I am disabled and no longer able to get out ! Great to see !

[@ds2000]

Did this run 5 times over the last 7 days, I loved it. It was my first time skiing a proper black (as in not just 300m). I fell at exactly the same place you did too 😂

[@Alexskiing]

Hope you had a good time its an amazing resort!

[@gordongreen6125]

One of my favourite runs. And one of the best videos showing the run to good effect - at speed.

[@adventuretwins907]

Sehr gute Kondition und ein beeindruckendes Video! Mega stark 👍💪😎

[@Alexskiing]

Danke für den Kommentar wirklich zu schätzen

[@alexandrubeceanu8605]

100 km/h not even close🤣🤣🤣

[@Pshady]

Data synchronisation error. The speeds are wrong, unless you can skate at 70kph!

[@DavidIancu]

Yep. At 2:18 no way to have 65 km/h. He mostly hit 80.

[@ivokoimecs]

10km? Where they get these numbers? The Sache itself is only 3km long, the whole run from top to bottom is 4.5km. You've done it in 6min, so if it was 10km, your average speed would be 100km/h, but we see only about 50km/h at best. But, anyway, good job, that's fast! ... 😀👍

[@leedsunitedfan8494]

Amazing run. It sounded super icy.

[@simonmoscrop5102]

Nice touch picking up the ski for a fallen skier

[@joecool132]

I broke my leg just watching this.

[@Alexskiing]

Haha

[@m.hoffman2889]

Definitely on my list, especially with that stone arch in the beginning of the run. I think the gps speed is kinda inaccurate. It shows like 0mph at 0:17 while it looks like 25-30mph

[@honkabooly]

I like it when you got the guys ski good man

[@NicolasValentinScotland]

when you stop you still do 30 miles / hour , brilliant .

[@flapjackson6077]

😂 That looked challenging! But lot’s of fun! 👍

[@grahamfielding9738]

Poling uphill at 30mph must have arms of steel. And bollox its 10k long I clocked it at 2.95 miles last Thursday and that's from the chair so not technically even the start of the run.

[@kurtvoet2713]

Speed is not correct. Distance is not correct. Last part you took was red. You avoided the black part with buccless. I did it last friday

[@kurtvoet2713]

Last part was not black but red

[@paull2937]

5:45 is where he’s actually going 110 km/h.

[@simonwiltshire7089]

Worked in Breviere (where the run ends) for a few years back in the 80’s. Happy days : )

[@mtcsypkens]

Looking into going to Tignes again this winter. Only went to the openings before, so this slope wasn't open. Really want to do this slope now!

[@liamgaul]

I'm pretty sure La Sache is far shorter than 10 km. I did it a couple of times recently and it was showing up as about 4.5 km on my watch. You did it in under 6 minutes (including the top bit which technically isn't even La Sache, but let's ignore that detail) and would need to average over 100 km/h for it to be 10 km, which obviously wasn't the case. So why do so many websites list it at 10 km when it's demonstrably only about half that?

[@jonathanbishop4944]

Great video. I’m going Brevieres in Feb and am looking forward to this run! Is it better conditions in the morning or afternoon?

[@Alexskiing]

Afternoon for sure it can be Icy in the morning. Good luck!

[@vitaliy1515]

[@carvingskiponthu]

From 2:20 where is 100km\h? 😁 But your condition is good, gratulation! 😉

[@michae8jackson378]

Very icy! I'm sure that's why you slipped there....Nice to help out the fallen skier!

[@cumbrianmountain]

It's great at the beginning but gets really exciting towards the end! What DIN settings do you use? Must be more than the person you help bouncing over the bumps at speed like that.

[@TheSamya2005]

the final km or two are the hardest.. only run in that area where i stopped in the middle to take a breather cause it was so steep :D also was really icy

[@Alexskiing]

Haha thanks for the comment

[@zazazaza-pe9xi]

I love your videos

[@HartajTrehan]

What makes a run black? I am still new but intermediate. I visited a ski resort where the blue was sooo damn steep, 5m wide track with exposed rocky cliff on the side, no catch nets. It was way out of my comfort zone but this one seems better as its not rocky, there are no cliffs. What makes a slope black and should I attempt it? Bit scared.

[@alihiridjee-asaria6164]

It definitely looks shallower than it is, I just skiied this run a few days ago in perfect conditions (nice soft snow), and still couldn't carve too much as it is quite steep. A good indication of how steep a piste is, Is how the person is skiing, if they are mostly skidding (to shed off speed as opposed to carving) you can tell it is rather steep. Carving on some parts of this slope would be suicide!

[@HartajTrehan]

@@alihiridjee-asaria6164 I see, yea camera distorts gradients

[@vatozv2360]

Hello, nice footage, really liked the video. May I ask what you use for your recording device? I couldn't find it anywhere.

Gopro hero 10 and telemetry overlay for the software.

Please take car at this time, it's the beginning of non-direction

[@Adrian-dt2oz]

Snow was icy. Nice control.

[@ordian]

You should look into getting a windslayer for your GoPro 9 to stop the wind noise. It helps till +-120kmh at least that's what I noticed when riding on my motorcycle.

[@Alexskiing]

Thanks for the advice I will take a look!

[@marcowassink3803]

[@junwong7959]

A beautiful run. But why is this classified a black, i thought black slopes were much steeper. I did a black slope as a student many years ago and it was frightening. A steep face all the way down. Wanted to cry on the slope

[@peterlewis2255]

Our youngest son cried on this run. but at age 6 it was the longest hardest run he'd done !

[@doctorstainy]

Whats the point of having a speedometer if its gonna be that much off. There was a point you stood still but speedometer was like 45km/h

[@user-uy7ze6nr1k]

balance is important than speed. only use one leg. to practice your balance.

[@zemmouretoui5048]

Super vidéo ! Par contre il me semble que quand y’a marqué 100kmh c’est plutôt 40kmh maximum !😂😂

Watch your speed from 03:00. - 04:00, WTF man??? It's not wright! What are you using, some mobile app or what? When you slow down, speed stays....

When we know that the speedometer indicates an incorrect speed, we do not take advantage of that to put in the title of the video "110 km/h" and thus deceive those who will watch the video!

[@NM-wd2ym]

Speed looks about right. It’s just lagging by 30-40secs - as shown by the fact that the first 30s show 0-1 km/h continuously.

[@f2uiv1w4]

Awesome 😃

[@jimevirgule4844]

i did it on one leg and closing my eyes still alive

[@MykolaDolgalov]

Nice run, great views, thanks for the video. However, km/h and mph are fairly useless, it looks like they're showing stats from some other run. They totally don't correspond to your actual run. Your highest speed was clearly around 1:44 mark in the video, not 2:24. At 2:15 you are pushing up because it's uphill, and it's showing 50 km/h. Then you barely start moving, and it's showing 107 km/h? Please fix your speedometer/stats. This video title is very misleading.

[@CabrioDriving]

5:12 👌
