Gamsleiten2 - Obertauern - the most terrorizing black slope in Europe, or not ? [ENG-SUB]

[ENGLISH SUBTITLES](switch on and translate in any language !)
absolutely not ! don't care about it's fame, it's just n easy slope with only one difficult and steep point (there is also bypass slope)
La Gamsleiten2 e' davvero la nera piu' terrificante d'Europa ? assolutamente no. nonostante l'immagine famosa frontale agghiacciante, e' una pista facile con un punto difficile - l'ingresso dell'ultimo muro - molto ripido per qualche decina di metri ma bypassabile tramite stradino

[@markdewit4707]

If you gonna say something like this about that it’s not a big deal. Then Please take the right point to enter the ‘wall’ ;) you did enter on the most left side of te wall. And that is the chicken line ;) the next time enter on the far right, and not just after it’s ben prepared. If it’s then just easy. Then i will hear it

[@brunomyname9264]

When you see so many people, may of them medium to poor skier ( including an irresponsible adult with a learning child) it CANNOT be a black run where there is very few people. A DIFFICULT BLACK slope is a slope where if you fall you go down all the way to the bottom (if groomed and / or icy).

[@maco1713]

Heh,what a black slope?ordinary current line...

[@piotrj333]

This track was filmed in good conditions. I was today there when it looked like it wasn't groomed at all for season. It looked way more terrorizing then any other black track i ever was on

[@JF_82]

that's the chicken way to ride there, real deal is the moguls to the left of the bottom part. never found it terrorizing though, great slope in fresh snow when it is not groomed.

[@michaelnagle8250]

Brilliant having lift towers in the middle of a steep slope, so that when skiers fall they slide into them.

[@michaelwalsh9404]

Obviously it's only going to be so hard with such nice conditions (relative to something like moguls and storm), but people here saying "easy" as though an action camera parallel to the gradient doesn't make literally any run look trivially easy. It's a 100% gradient, a very steep official run by nearly all standards, even if the title might be hyperbole, which I'm in no position to really say as I've not done the run personally

[@mogeoofficiel]

I stay on my end there. Where is the black run that terrifies all skiers? Did we seen it?

[@Miroslav189]

The most terrifyin in this video is the musik))))

[@filipbojko353]

@@Miroslav189 No its the beginning of the video XD

[@pablorovijover7661]

How to trust such a video? It's long time, but I remember running that slope some years ago and the full track was similar to the one in Switzerland shown here, with big moguls and really steep close to the chair. I can remember it was easier to go off tracks on the left of the chair than on the track. This here was just a joke. Good prepared track and when the small part with moguls arrived, he took the deviation to avoid them. I'm not a fan of comparing different tracks, because it depends of the conditions, but for sure this is one of the most challenging tracks I have ever riden.

[@mofi3641]

so what about skiing on the hard LEFT side ? over the bumps?

[@michaeltanner4404]

It's a nice cruising run, with absolutely gorgeous views. Never got the chance to ski in Europe, dang it. Most of the black runs in the States and Canada are more heavily moguled.

[@stoffusch762]

Me as an Austrian have to say that there are much harder ones out there in Austria than that one :D

[@zuni1604]

kitzbühel hust

[@xrrollypolly4557]

Dude it is infamous from back in the 80s and 90s when they couldn‘t get the snow groomers up there because of the steep parts and you literally fell out of the lift and into hip-high completely icy bumps! They changed the piste a lot because of people constantly overestimating their skills and getting hurt, there wasn‘t any way around the steep parts back then.

[@nickmaclachlan5178]

Obertauern is a great resort, suits beginner to intermediate, there isn't much in the way of really scary black stuff there, but I enjoyed i think three trips there about fifteen or so years ago. It's a high resort and is open and skiable for at least four or five months of the year if not longer if the season starts early. I have been here in the first and second weeks of April and the snow conditions were still spectacular. The Après Ski is also on point here, great party town if you want that, the Austrians are about the closest in Europe to us Brits with their binge drinking habits, lol. My friends even got married here and we tied it all up in a skiing holiday, that was an epic week.

[@tine819]

Oh it's looking good! I want to ski Gamsleiten 2!

[@sammyseagull]

Saudan Couloir (Couloir Extreme), Blackcomb Mountain, BC These can be accessed from the top of the 7th heaven chair just past the Horstman's hut. The average slope angle is 42° from top to bottom but if you opt to enter from the roped entrance at the top your first turns will be on 49°.J

[@dachavujic]

A little harder “blue” slope.

[@Lehmann108]

Try the Bear Tooth Headwall outside Red Lodge Montana if you want steep!

[@distortimus7631]

I was there in fres snow, skiing under the lift. It was amazing.

[@nazzarenoceretti8025]

Bellissimo video 👍👏🙋‍♂️🌈💚

[@billdeiz]

Thank you. Enjoyed the run.

[@Insignifant]

Not trolling or anything but is it just me or are you among those people lacking the skills to actually be descending slopes like this? Your shadow tells a story you know. No offense

[@MultiPartizan1]

When you get a chance go to Jackson Hole,WY

[@kevocarroll3297]

The Flypaper at Glencoe, Scotland, is short and a fair bit steeper than this, and definitely scary!

[@PompeyBoy66]

Looks beautiful and something I could possibly do with some more lessons and practice. Where in Austria would you recommend?

[@craigbosko2229]

Nothing is better than DEEP AND STEEP !!!

[@Supersonicfifi2010]

Try LE TUNNEL in alpe d huez......

[@lucaslung284]

Nice green run.

[@klauswiedemann8551]

Dai, sei stato bravo. Communque, la Gamsleiten II è una delle piste più belle di tutto il comrensorio di Obertauern.

[@Lord1814]

grazie mille. Vi faro' vedere tante altre piste e comprensori !

[@hollowknightplayer2051]

You should try the mur suisse in champéry or the tunnel at the alpe d'huez. After doing either of them, this will be simple to you

[@crackerjack3359]

Try the Mur de Chavanette ... Avoriaz to Switzerland.

[@michaellinkroum5657]

Where he went down would be hard if it's icy,but if there is plenty of snow,no problem!

[@daetann]

thx. the reputation usually comes from bad snow x high moguls… but it‘s just a black piste. The more experienced skiers go off piste skiers left from the chair, directing to the village. (mind avalanche danger and cliffs!)

[@jamesbachreeves]

Nice video, well shot, but.... WHY must you overlay that insipid and maddeningly repetitious "music"? It adds nothing, and makes it harder to hear the natural sounds of skis on snow. Sure, I can turn off the sound, but then I lose your narrative. PLEASE consider not using such noise when you make such interesting videos.

[@cimuz82]

Fino ad adesso non ho mai trovato in snowboard piste particolarmente impegnative in Italia. Anzi , se devo dirla tutta, l'ultimo muro della direttissima spinale di Campiglio , preso dal lato sinistro, è assai ostico ed impegnativo, sicuramente non per tutti.

[@GiorgioCarloCappello]

It is not terrifying ever, it is mostly good to go

[@hidde663]

the "the wall" in avoriaz is the hardest one i know. saw someone fall there for ~30 meter

[@ucrainadascoprireecucinait4187]

A vedere le immagini molto molto impegnativa, non sarei in grado onestamente

[@jayconway7390]

Groomed….kinda boring

[@petter5721]

Try ”Väggen” (the Wall) in Sälen, Sweden. That is a steep slope 👍🏻

[@jinx_eu]

Domanda veloce, gli skipass in Austria quanto costano di media? Alle Deux Alpes prezzi assurdi.. 60 Euro al giorno!

[@Lord1814]

anche di piu, ovviamente dipende dove vai. Ma i servizi sono eccellentoi e non hai spese extra anzi, molte volte ci sono sconti dagli hotel, i parcheggi e gli skibus gratuiti ecc ecc

[@lauragatehouse7935]

This doesn’t look hard... looks really fun.

[@xxhell7grinderxx673]

Song?

[@davidmisenheimer6018]

#KirkwoodCA #TheWall is an actual wall.

[@perfectmoment]

At Squaw Valley this would be a blue run.

[@romolovercesi5200]

Avoriaz Swiss Wall is mote frightening with very steep 1.5 meter moguls at the moment !! Try that if you dare !

[@user-tx5ly6bj3y]

The Streif is the most hardest in the World!

[@maxikober1928]

Gäbs Zakkas no

[@lucacapozzi6972]

it depends on how you know how to ski and how fast you go down

[@Endeavour30]

No, only for race.

[@photonmaniac]

yeah its not if you just sliding down all the way to the path and then down the very right side of the slope. Just go straigt down on the left side and you are way more in trouble my friend. but yeah, if seen steeper slopes

[@FX-fk8yt]

try Les Tunnel in Huez just like others suggested :D

Hi, nice video. What brand is your helmet? I'd like to buy one

Salomon

[@dazwischen1]

That`s it???? :-DDDDDD There is one and it`s the only one piste in Europe that is orange. Orange is harder than black. It´s called the "Schweizer Wand" in les Portes du Soleil. That`s hard!!!!

[@danielrelph6878]

I thought the chamonix in france was the most gnarly of all?.... That was a steep groomer it looked fun and very easy.

Ciao, vorrei sapere con quale action cam hai effettuato le riprese???

[@erikhp35c95]

Do not Know this One but Face de Bellevarde in Val d’Isère, Grand Couloir in Courchevel or Cime Carron in Val Thorens are my top 3.

[@wagr9824]

That is a burner run built to blaze at high speeds…..only problem is there are beginner skiers everywhere you have to dodge

[@lorenzobolognini7284]

Hai dimenticato anche la pista del Furggen aperta fino al 1993. Era molto ripida

[@thomaschulze]

Try out Chocken in Idrefjäll. Steepest black slope in Europe.

[@eleanorstevens8192]

Wow I am scared of some red slopes

[@adolci61]

NOT !

not

Is this the wall?

No U Nope this is Austria

[@jankroupa5978]

standard nice downhill. CHeck the beginnign of Le Tunnel in Alpe d'Huez

[@johnspencer8982]

Not even remotely terrorizing lol

[@baumann9551]

depepnds on your level of skiing but remember slopes dont look nearly as steep on video as in real life

[@36flamingo63]

No, the best and hardest "black slope" in Europe is CANALONE in Madesimo SO Italy. This is a large and smooth kindergarten... ;-)

[@maxrava4339]

È peggio del rio nero di Sestriere ?

[@scana0009]

il rio nero si trova nel vallone che fa parte di sauze ;)

[@scana0009]

Poi secondo me il Motta e il Sises sono ben più pendenti calcolando che alcune parti del Motta raggiungono (come risalita skilift) il 60% e oltre di pendenza.

[@grecolipparini1264]

Grande Lord!!!!

[@wuzel1974]

The S in Val d Isere

[@M1ky1]

tutto tranne che terrificante. nera, bella, ma niente di troppo difficile

[@kasiakowalska500]

I propose you HARAKIRI in Austria - Zillertal - 78% slope

[@paulcattaneo3816]

Looks like a normal intermediate run in the states

[@williambissell794]

A little steep in places but not close to terrorizing. Easy for a strong intermediate.

[@sisao80]

Paul Cattaneo good for you....stay there then!!!

[@psychan6392]

From my experience it is not that Hard, but he bypassed the interesting part 🤣🤣

[@nobbytang]

Hahaha…try grand couloir in courcheval on a icy day ….

[@erick64bosck3]

Terrorizing for a british,not for a french skier.

[@allecarlo]

effettivamente abbiamo di meglio nel comprensorio Dolomitisuperski ...impianti compresi

[@Lord1814]

assolutamente si. E anche loro stessi in Austria hanno molto di meglio

[@diegobardino1347]

La spinale con il 70% di pendenza mi è sembrata molto peggio

[@marcocastellarin3484]

The Wall..😂 quello dei Pink Floyd.

[@sergiolevaggi347]

Bella pista di tutto rispetto, la neve non era in buone condizioni ma soprattutto non capisco gli impediti che vogliono fare i furbi x poi vantarsi a valle con gli amici purtroppo togliendo il piacere di una meravigliosa sciata a chi sa stare sugli sci.... Grazie Lord

[@cdarwecvaerfa]

La pista è loro come tua dal momento che pagano skipass,non tutti sono Alberto tomba c è anche chi la vuol provare e magari riesce a farla senza strafare, i fenomeni piuttosto si ricordino che la pista è di tutti e non solo per loro,evitassero di sfrecciare giù a 100 allora facendo peli a chi magari è più imbranato ..da arresto

[@ivanguidi5176]

Fanno i furbi in che senso

[@toyotalandcruiser80seriesd72]

Come to Scotland then I show you few black runs 😂

[@Co-km6cl]

Scottland has ski slopes?

[@Lyubomir1984]

Nothing special.Chill slope!

[@craigbosko2229]

I'd love to ride that with a minimum amount of 18 inches of powder,top to bottom,no facets,no surface hoar,no wind blown,no nothing but still wearing my avalanche transceiver and BCA FLOAT 32 BACKPACK at 15°f.

[@klauswiedemann8551]

Il lord è un fifone! Ha preso la variante facile per evitare il tratto ripido. Vergogna!

[@Lord1814]

l'intero fronte dove sono sceso io e' il piu' ripido. Alla mia sinistra, come si vede, ci sono anche le gobbe. Alle mie spalle invece, c'e la variante che e' uno stradino stretto e poco ripido che a un certo punto fa una curva a gomito e si immette alla base del muro ripido, sotto i vari "caduti" che si vedono nel video

[@RW-vt8up]

Terrifying. This is ski extreme.

[@gioradetsky9857]

Ok. Meglio sciare a Febbio quindi...

[@greensombrero3641]

I could ski that with one leg behind my back

[@TheRockerxx69]

Provi a Steinach la più ripida D Austria.

[@jonathanleach383]

Looks like a green run lol

[@chadrew6]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[@alfredocappa9905]

Mah......

[@ruedihuber8798]

Easy, its 45 degrees max. Thats half horizontal or half vertical. ;-)

[@tonycarre4637]

Bullshit do you know the tunnel alpe d'huez

[@Lord1814]

yes. Never been there, but i will try it soon

[@tonycarre4637]

So you'll love skiing underwear preasure the best way to do it is to be in the 100 first riders after snowfall

[@francoisfoue]

Boring, nothing impressive, there are many long and steeper runs in the Alps. Try Tignes/ Val d'Isère, Les Arcs, La Plagne, Chamonix in Savoie have runs over 2000 meters drop for instance; and this is only on the vertical drop criteria

[@georgestoussaint7554]

Try the Pas de Chavanette in Avoriaz (F).... Way more hard than this one.

[@chadrew6]

it's flat as a pancake with no moguls to speak of so what's the big deal? who cares if it's steep that's not a problem.

[@Lord1814]

that's exactly what i wanted to display with this video

[@chadrew6]

got it

[@badsn]

@@Lord1814 well you were lucky with good snow. On my last trip I had the G2 either icy but groomed or with lots of powder snow and all moguls. Also as another person stated you did not take the diretissima through the lower wall which is the steepest part. They icy conditions were kinda scary and the deep snow moguls were really hard on the quads. Still found the Streif to be harder to ride. But G2 is not easy.
