[@matthewblum]

thank you these are the kind of videos I like from GoPro

[@ChrisDavenport]

Thanks, Matthew. You keep watching them, we'll keep making them!

[@noahnobel-rieper8939]

Yo Matthew!

[@clementjoubert9750]

Awesome vid !

[@makeitflyviewer2471]

Exactly.

[@chipius]

Better than SEX!!!!!

[@twoah927]

This i think is the first time ive watched a gopro vid and thought: "i wouldn't die doing that"

[@HarrisonJames]

I'd fall and tumble to me death

[@myrobotfish]

Until the snow gives way and you get consumed by the avalanche.

[@avikbhattacharya9488]

exactly my thought 😂

[@SliceofBread123]

Looked like a pretty average line

[@jclan1814]

Hey guys! Just started a brand new channel dedicated to mainly GoPro and IRL videos that ive captured. Please do check out my channel and Subscribe! Here's my first upload - /watch?v=CLfEdyJMs8k

Random trivia: the big, distant mountain you can see just above and left of center at 20 seconds is actually Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the Western and Southern Hemispheres. :)

[@evantansimore7634]

oh sweet! That's pretty cool! Thanks for pointing that out :)

[@seanoneil6120]

Plus a sweet wave cloud!

Aconcagua: The highest mountain in the world, outside the Himalayas.

[@michelangelopatrizi5283]

Not even close to true

[@HoracioGaray]

Portillo is probably my favorite place on earth. Well done, Chris! Cool video!

[@richardsepulveda4727]

WONDERFUL, AMAZING. THIS IS CHILE, GREAT CONGRATULATIONS.

[@cristianriquelme5426]

We need a winter olympics in Chile, sometime in the southern hemisphere.

[@OlDoinyo]

Good luck with that---they like to do it in February. Perhaps Antarctica would have enough snow then...

[@Julian-sk2wx]

OlDoinyo we just could make it in july. The main problem is that those countrys arent interested in wintersports

[@lukefinch6880]

Almost more impressive that they climbed that in their ski boots

[@relate97]

They have special clips on the bottom of them that come off they actually get there foot melted into the boot for such a perfect fit

[@carlywilbur5510]

They used a helicopter and walked 100 yards

man so that was so beautiful, i haven't skied since I was a kid but this brought back memories of spending time in the mountains as a kid!

[@00Mindi00]

NOOOOO this was too short! I want to see more!!!!

[@ChrisDavenport]

Come to Chile and ski with me this summer and there will be plenty more to see!

[@dantheman9846]

+Chris Davenport I love skiing but I live in the east coast 😭 if I could I would ski every day

[@adrianbrn9465]

You're a lucky man, it's the best snow season since a long time on that area, also Penitentes and Las Leñas. They say we'll have snow untill the last days of september.

[@MobbareKurtz]

Look up sherpas cinema

[@flt528]

Love it - thank you! I probably had 1/5th as much fun watching this in my living room as you had doing it, and I didn't have to take the risk of ending my life.

[@soldad0ryan]

Portillo é bom mesmo pra quem já é pro assim. Deve ser incrível dessas pistas.

[@maxtangelder4584]

I think this is one of the best gopro video's I have seen

[@physicsisfuninfos962]

Those places show that we have a beautiful earth

[@fernandog.aguirre2791]

thank you for share it...thank you for inspire others!!!! great tunes by the way!

[@johnkeene1905]

The last time I skied in my life, it was with that same descent. Exciting memories!

[@voxintenebris6367]

Brilliant video, thank you for sharing the experience. There are some truly beautiful and amazing places, still unseen by most.

Great video, would love to go there 🎿

[@NiamorH]

I am not able to find Glory Pop "Touch My Heart (Instrumental)" anywhere. Are you sure about this one? I am looking for the beginning music until ~38s and then you can hear it again from 2:05 to 2:40

[@hugolaval750]

I can't find it too! I think there is a mistake, it's not the good title I think. But I really need this song!

Damn that looks amazing. Definitely on my bucket list.

[@stecuv]

this video is awesome !!

[@brandonm1708]

2:24 when I first saw it I thought they were in some kind of cave/indent in the ground because of the angle and when the camera angle changed it looked like they were warping space

[@deang5077]

I can't wait to head to chile snowboarding now

Awesome vid.

[@MrFREDANG]

if you mix your two skis and bindings, thats what I've got, katanas with kingpins, sweet video guys

[@Spaceman247]

one of the best!!!

[@IsaacJoelMorales23]

Good video and quality...thanks

[@kevindudd3225]

Well, that was pretty great advertisement for Portillo... I know where I want to go now.

[@jbhann]

The most amazing thing...they hiked up the mountain in *_ski boots!_*

[@brandondaub9301]

3:28 - "Get this thing off my head!!"

[@shelox1000]

COME TO CHILE AMIG@S!!

[@alexwalz8686]

awesome video! any way i could find out what mount was used on the car in the opening scenes?

[@cdcartlidge]

Awesome would love a go at that!

[@skiingisfun4me]

What gimbal was being used with the hero 4 on the chest mount? And we're can I get one?

[@garanbergelin80]

it must be painful hiking in ski boots, i mean i can barely walk on flat ground in ski boots so i couldn't imagine walking uphill.

[@welshgib8079]

totally agree

[@timothygillis1149]

Segma Gaz Touring boots. Hike like mountaineering boots.

[@wilhemhld5805]

Amazing !

[@TranceAddictFoX]

+GoPro What stabilizers are being used in this video?

[@MrChangCJ]

you can see at 2:39 the stabiliser has the "fy" trademark of Fei Yu gimbals

[@clementjoubert9750]

Yes ! it's the fei yu gimbal

[@abdelightwonderxiii323]

Sieera my homie 🤣🤣🤣 love that

[@ken6474]

don't see in the comments, I'm curious of the hike time to the summit?

[@maximus972]

very cool 💪😎👌

[@Fr33stylesports]

Awesome!

[@daasboot81]

Party wave 🌊🍻

[@tgguadarrama]

¡Awesome! Thank You

[@hitchhiker6150]

Why is there no video of the exposed ridge walk??? That is one of the hike up and the whole Super C highlights!!!

[@hitchhiker6150]

Also wow, what a difference the quality of snow and ski underfoot makes. I was crawling down with sticky wet snow and ice patches in 80 underfoot heavy rental skis. If I was skiing in powder conditions like this with 100+ underfoot, I would have surfed that like candide thovex/Kelly slater

[@john3Lee]

Amazing video - Is this all stabilised in warp (Premier Pro) ? More like this please!! :)

[@snorkelklubben6708]

No, they use gimbals (you can see one at 2:08)

[@МихаилЯниш]

Also you can see something on the man's head at 3:28. But, honestly I don't know what is it. Maybe that's some kind of stabilizer or camera mount (sry for any mistakes in text)

[@mowatfilms]

that is the 360 degree camera

[@ThibaultDH]

I think it's for making 360' videos

[@john3Lee]

Ok - I'll take a look - Thanks :)

[@KevinYap91]

Sad i live in the tropics, damn no snow :(.

[@ramonmv17]

[@GD-dt4ge]

Same.. But we do have some amazing beaches!

[@ramonmv17]

Cenpido Elker Yeah! In Spain, luckily we've got both

[@byreverse649]

Good Video!

[@DominicParlotto]

I’m going to Portillo soon is it worth the hike?

[@eliaskallelindholm8339]

I don't know the avalanche risk there but mostly you should drive one by one and not all at the same time to keep avalanche risk low and make sure only one gets stuck in the avalanche.

[@shirleyloke8830]

it's so cool!

[@revisionskispage]

Looks like a good old time.

[@tylerhorton7393]

Can anyone answer why these guys hiked the mountain? They could’ve easily skinned the way up until the rocks, which was only a minor part of the climb

[@Jurr]

4:30 Is that lake frozen? If not, can anyone tell me how it's still liquid at that temperature? :D

[@janbilek9543]

Good video

[@edmer8599]

これはマジで行きたい…GoPro持っていこ

[@harales7849]

Why didn't they have the new backpack? I thought it is a nice thing to do sports?

[@xavpaw]

what editing program did you use to stabilize the video?

[@rohitcyclone]

GoPro you should do something in India too. We need you. We have everything you need. And also gov might allow us to do something crazy ;)

[@XoneSpecialsGaming]

2:30 would be 32°50'08.9"S 70°09'11.7"W if anyone is interested

[@ylarrivee]

When was this filmed ?

[@jeddhernandez]

Chilean Andes + Sk + SnowBoard + Dakar + Downhill Valparaíso + Atacama Desert + Geisers of Tatio + Volcano + Hot Springs... Come to chile !!!!

[@FutHDChannel]

+ patagonia + glaciers

[@stckyfngr9407]

sound sounds like outro from m83! the art of flight

[@dyllanlizotte5443]

Karma drone?

[@drv_channel]

Three people simultaneously skiing a terrain trap couloir in the backcountry, no waiting... That's some good avy safety...

[@ChrisDavenport]

Hi Joe, we actually skied the top part one at a time and then skied the bottom part together once the stuff had dispersed. The maritime snowpack in Chile makes it very safe even right after a storm and really the only hazard is stuff. So once that is managed, it's usually game on. But thank you for your thought to safety. Always important to think about.

[@drv_channel]

Fair enough, I'm glad to know you're considering avy safety and not taking the attitude of "it's only sidecountry" that occurs much too often. Does this resort still control outside the resort boundaries? (Most resorts don't unless inbounds runs are in the fall line). Looks like an amazingly fun chute to ski, I hope I can make it down to Chile at some point and enjoy some of that prime terrain.

[@GrubyyParch]

Awesome :-D

[@lasseschmidt7013]

[@jml6802]

I think is the drone "lily"

Can I just fly here with my gear and hit this?

now all you need it 50 gopros and 5 drones to make a video like this

lol yeh
