Snowbird in the spring looks magical... no people, no chaos, just skiing bliss

[@LucasCatania17]

Totally man. Whole different experience

[@paulbrownjr8676]

Thanks for all you do Lucas

[@LucasCatania17]

My pleasure. Thank you for taking time to watch

[@zachtilley4918]

Shocked you brought the 106s out, I love a wide ski in the slush. Just finished this video up and now headed out for some e wall laps. I can’t stop. Gl next weekend 🚘

[@brettbrocoff6955]

So cool watching you ski with Drew. LCC has so many amazing skiers

[@LucasCatania17]

Yea he rips!

[@markvaldez8602]

Awesome vibes! Love the late season days.

[@LucasCatania17]

Heck yea mark

[@MichaelRubinton]

Love spring vibes! Thanks for the vid.

[@LucasCatania17]

Aye thanks for watching!

[@davidsamuels4246]

Thanks for a dose of the Bird. Good to see Drew in action. Not sure how others would react but I'd love to see some more of the locals mixed in the future. Some killer women on that mtn, World Cup skiers, some of the Bird athletes, ripping race team kids etc. Oh, the patrol staff Tina etc. Lot's of fun to be had.

[@LucasCatania17]

yah as you can see it happens rather spontaneously on the mountain. nothing planned ahead of time etc

[@grandillusion52]

What a sick spring day bro, 12:21 love that shot

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks brother !

[@MrSpartanPaul]

Last week at Mary Jane and A basin I found that 9-11 am is the sweet spot for spring skiing. After that it's mashed potatoes.

[@justinbayola]

You both are incredibly talented and it's great to see you guys ripping around together for a lap! Epic stuff! Glad you are still having fun up in the slushy stuff :)

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks brother 🙏🏽

[@jacksultan8146]

Time to watch some shredded wheat Great spring show that's for sure

[@celeck9366]

Hey that was me on the tram at the beginning! Haha Missed out on meeting you. Drew rips, cool to see you both skiing together.

[@darinsmith2458]

Nice to see that you are still doing it... BRECK closed on Mother's Day with 11 inches and an 83 inch base..

[@LucasCatania17]

Sounds like most places are closing in may!

[@eliethridge5969]

Really solid vid, looking forward to seeing more before the end of the season

[@LucasCatania17]

For sure man

[@waltciii3]

Ah the warmth! I'll be in Mammoth on Memorial weekend to close out my season!

[@LucasCatania17]

Same man! Maybe I’ll see ya out there

[@jacksultan8146]

Great Scott let's go

[@LucasCatania17]

[@ccpmarch1980]

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks bro!!

[@jacksultan8146]

Pretty awesome conditions Wow

[@Hudson-M]

So sick to get a lift ride with you and talk so fun up there great video turned out fantastic.

[@LucasCatania17]

Nice to meet you!

[@steveharris6916]

😅 can’t believe how much coverage they still have. Lucas, say this word for me once “Wax”.

[@LucasCatania17]

what that mean???

[@ericgulseth74]

Stop triggering the poor man!

[@reginay7729]

Fun lil spring skiing video! Looking forward to more, esp from Mammoth

[@LucasCatania17]

Yes!! Super excited to get back out there

[@loganlopas7]

Nice shirt! Elkhart Lake, WI! I grew up just north of there 😀

[@LucasCatania17]

Nice man!!

[@cameronmasters6187]

Dude you need to get a pair of Declivity 102s for days like this. I daily the Declivity 102 at Alta, have the 92 for spring or firm days, and your videos convinced me to buy a pair of ARV 116 JJs for pow days. I know you love the ARV series but the Declivity line is an absolute game changer when conditions aren’t ideal. I’m an Armada fan for life thanks to you!

[@adamhansen8805]

Hey I'm thinking about picking up some declivities! What do you like about them more than the ARV series? I have a pair of 106s and white walkers. I love the whitewalkers because they're light and poppy which seems similar to the declivity series.

[@LucasCatania17]

Definitely want to give the declivitys a shot someday!

[@cameronmasters6187]

⁠​⁠@@adamhansen8805 the Declivitys are amazing. Especially in the 102, they have a good amount of tip rocker so in days up to about 6 inches deep they are fine. The tails are somewhat flat, and the titanal stringers run the full length of the ski, so it grips and carves an edge incredibly well. They have so much energy in an out of turns and are really flickable, especially for a ski with metal. I bought a used pair of ARW 106s this season to try out but ended up selling because they are so similar to the 116s. The Declivity series is similar but less smeary. They reward leaning them over and railing a turn, but are agile and fun on piste, in the trees, anywhere. Love them.

[@tidal8665]

"i'm not even recording" -famous last words 😂

[@LucasCatania17]

😂😂

[@DCProductions00]

That shit had me laughing too lol

[@POW862]

Slurpy goodness. You're old stomping grounds here in Summit Co...Basin...is riding awesome still. Going today with high of 34 and great coverage. East Wall niceness!!!!

[@LucasCatania17]

Nice man!! Been thinking about taking a trip out there

[@POW862]

Great finish to season

[@joshnelson4704]

Love the spring stoke!

[@LucasCatania17]

For sure man

[@olightskier209]

i was up there it was amazing!

[@LucasCatania17]

🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@paulbrownjr8676]

What a view

[@gamesa1231]

Might be a little slushy but still a better day than we had in pennsylvania all last season

[@LucasCatania17]

True that!

[@user-jf5lr5cb4f]

Sup! Max 2 gonna be a beast?))

[@AlanLamb11]

Miss some days like that at the Bird, mid-winter is usually better snow but the coverage is so variable it is hard to know what you'll face.

[@LucasCatania17]

Coverage was still great just a little slushy haha

[@pranavmalavalli5582]

Drew went Zoom Zoom

[@LucasCatania17]

So fast

[@raymondsiewert2720]

Thigh burner snow. ! 😅

[@LucasCatania17]

Yeah!!

[@pdeichert]

Riding in a slurpee all day

[@LucasCatania17]

Perfect way to describe it tbh

[@pdeichert]

@@LucasCatania17 it feels the same way in the Cat. Like driving a boat, it’s crazy!

[@philbarto1755]

What ski's are you using in this video? Would those also work for a powder day?

[@LucasCatania17]

2023 armada ARV 106. They can handle some pow but might struggle in the really deep stuff!

[@Timtamslam69]

What is your yellow jacket again?

[@CarvingTracks]

Nice video Lucas. What’s the song from minute 11:45?

[@JoshMartin-qq9ww]

How is the air quality in Salt lake?!

[@LucasCatania17]

some of the worst there is!

[@brandonwilliam2618]

What’s this “wax” stuff you talk about at 15:00

[@LucasCatania17]

Me don’t know

[@47cjh]

pov: skiing on the east coast

[@LucasCatania17]

A good day on the east coast

[@ericgulseth74]

It ain't spring skiing unless you're in a t-shirt and shorts buddy!

[@LucasCatania17]

Haha!!

[@sethvicious]

Drew is a fucking beast

[@LucasCatania17]

No doubt
