How to tell any run is hard? Malcom with all his experience and fitness level huffs and puffs down the portion of it doing 13km/h. That tells you a lot. Great video, nice to be able to see parts of the mountain where I'll never get to, realistically :D

@@urlauburlaub2222 Of course, length and profile of the slope do matter. Both for how intimidating/steep they look, which was what being discussed, and also how difficult it is, simply because something low consequential and very short like the Harakiri, makes both sliding it down on your butt - as can regularly be observed there - as well as going some short steep part a bit faster than planned, knowing the absence of any bumps and the gently flattening section afterwards will allow you to safely stop, valid exit strategies that you likely survive unharmed. (I still would only ever take a run, if those were very unlikely worst-case scenarios). There definitely are a lot more less skilled snowboarders that made it down the Harakiri one way or another than there are for the Sauliere Couloirs. Mind you, this is snowboarding, not skiing. And while the last skis I ever used, were the 80s type reaching up to the top of ones head (if not higher, to "grow into" them, as a kid), I can attest you, that both riding moguls as well as pure (and from a skiers perspective trivial) straight lining is a lot easier on skies than on a snowboard. I guess you state the carvers being easier for the Couloir because they are shorter and more willing to turn? While a snowboard is arguably easier to jump-turn than long skis, as a skier you still leverage the mogul to your advantage to ease the turning and being predominantly generated by skiers, their spacing does fit that movement pattern - on a snowboard, however, the mogul only only gets in your way, maintaining your balance becoming the biggest challenge with the incline permanently and wildly changing in all directions. I find it an interesting challenge, and like the fact that you need to plan a couple of turns ahead and find the arrangement of moguls that you can best fit a turn in (much like in tight trees, which are fun for that reason), the vast majority of snowboarders shy away from even the most mellow black run, if it is a mogul field and consequently would rather go for the Harakiri than that, if they were forced to choose.

Saw someone crash after he had rolled for a while and broke a leg, and waited until I saw help: an ESF teacher saw it happen and reached out. The most scary part is the path to the couloir. On the top of the mountain there's also a black slope which is on the left side, which goes under the egg shaped lift and descends to Meribel.

@malcolmmoore2 жыл бұрын
You can carve steeper runs bit it'll be harder. You need to have a really good edge hold at higher speeds and with more pressure going through the board. You'll also want to be able to really lean into the turn to pull the board around in a tighter arc. And it will be made far easier if the snow is good!

Not too bad luck with the conditions - sure tracked out, but you found a line close to the rocks. Still have it on the TODO list myself - first time I was there, conditions were quite bad, I faced truly icy moguls reaching up to my shoulders on the notably less steep Bosses run in Meribel (not to be confused with the yet less steep Bosses run in Courcevel) that made that more of an annoyance rather than fun, thus I passed on the Couloirs - only makes sense if its enjoyable. When I was there early this season, there was quite fresh snow, but it came along with very high avalanche risk, most of the lesser black runs remained closed half of the week. And the Sauliere gondola was not running at all while I was there. Well, one day I'll be lucky with the conditions... You sure like to point it. 😆 I like to go for the tighter carves rather than the raw speed, looking at my wavy tracks of the Combe de la Sauliere, fastest I went there consequently was 68.5 km/h. But I had to smile, seeing you take exactly the same route after the slow sign as I did, cutting all the way over to the less frequented right side of the slope. 😀
