I've been watching you since you started this channel and this is one of my favs...... Represent!!!!

[@BoredProgression]

That’s awesome! Thanks amigo!! 🤜🤛

[@jgg0207]

"We dont see you every day" lol

[@BoredProgression]

But they should lol

[@johngacy6367]

I did this Friday. Best run of the trip. A few people yelled at us but fuck skiers

[@BoredProgression]

Hahaha.

[@SteepTurns]

You’re a legend for this. Love it.

[@BoredProgression]

🤘 This should be just a typical run in the wasatch.

[@hsidder]

Ah ha ha ha, love it. Love the skiers comments. 🤣😭 “That’s how it’s done!!”

[@BoredProgression]

[@anev23]

You can snowboard Alta at any time, there are no restrictions, you just can't ride the lifts. As long as uphill is open. it's fair game. I'm a skier/ snowboarder (there are more of us than you think) and love Alta. That said, it would be a TERRIBLE place to ride a snowboard. We have a joke that Alta stands for Another Long Traverse Ahead, and it's true. There's so much incredible terrain there but 90% of it is accessed by traversing/ hiking. It would suck on a snowboard. Deer valley is another story. That would be a great place to snowboard.

[@BoredProgression]

I’ve toured all over Alta and it’s not a “TERRIBLE” place to ride a snowboard. Yes, there’s a lot of flats and traverses but that’s a “TERRIBLE” excuse to say snowboarders aren’t missing anything. I have a blast every time I ride there. If it really is that bad, then opening it up to snowboarding won’t change the mountain at all. After a season or less, snowboarders would figure that out and continue to ride elsewhere.

[@andrew72041]

Truth, sounds like a lame excuse.

[@samuelleblanc3441]

Omfg The forbidden fruit! Im proud of you, keep on your great work

[@BoredProgression]

Yewww! 🤘 Gonna drop a step-by-step tutorial lol.

[@vladbalashoff]

@@BoredProgressionplease do 🙏

[@eugorov13]

I haven't done the hiking portion of this slope before on my board but the resort terrain in alta was enjoyable! Poaching ALTA ftw! #altasnowboardclub I always do it as my last run if my family (skiers) are spending the day at alta

[@BoredProgression]

Yeewww! Love it!

[@SteveThompson-li2fc]

Great vid but I’m not sure why you would want to drop into Alta anyway - Snowbird is superior. JMO.

[@BoredProgression]

Snowbird is definitely better but Alta’s like a mini snowbird or Snowbird.5 Baldy chutes alone are worth it.

[@tetra8909]

Alta now is a lot nicer it seems... chill family vibes from the resort mostly. deer valley is a bit more hostile to snowboarders...

[@BoredProgression]

I’ll have to do a Deer Valley top-to-bottom and see. 😛

[@tetra8909]

@@BoredProgression many roads you can drop in at or drop in from park cityMR!

[@canyonwonder]

This can be lapped from Snowbird with all of a 100 yard walk on a flatish road. No need for a car shuttle. The Baldy chutes are legit!

[@BoredProgression]

Most definitely.

[@MattMottershead]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Alta made a settlement in the lawsuit against them that says snowboarders can use the slopes (because that is government land) but can use the lifts.

[@BoredProgression]

There was no settlement. It’s always been that way as far as I know. The courts decided in that lawsuit that snowboarders essentially weren’t a group of people being excluded and that they can get on the lifts with Alta’s “preferred equipment”. Pretty sure nothing changed after the lawsuit.

[@Discernftw]

YEEWWWWW! Love seeing these video drops! Thanks for the work you're putting in!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks my dude!

[@alwaysbecarving]

Amazing run. It looks so steep. Did my first black last weekend. So scary. 🔥

[@BoredProgression]

Awesome dude! It’s quite steep. Alta actually doesn’t have double black diamonds on their trails so this is equivalent to one.

[@brianmadeux3521]

Hilariously awesome, nice top to bottom run it doesnt even look like you tired at all. I am an avid skier

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks man! 🫶 ⛷️

[@leviwarr4490]

Yo I love this. Make Alta allow snowboarding. I ski and I wanna be able to rip with all my boarding homies at Alta! I doesn’t matter how many pieces of wood you have on your feet.

[@BoredProgression]

Preach Levi! I wanna rip Alta with you too dude.

[@pruchi]

Love it! Nice work!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks brudda!

[@stefangonzo]

Very nice. Represent!

[@BoredProgression]

🤜🤛

[@vaughnoutdoor]

REBELS! Awesome Dan and Austin! We have some new all white VO’s for Austin, and you too Dan if you want some!

[@BoredProgression]

Yeeewww! Can’t wait to get my hands in em!

[@Gary-np7hl]

Hell yeah! I’d have to know that the snow is good coming down that chute not to embarrass myself. Last time I was up there, I was just going to scan my ikon pass at the top of baldy and just go through the gates. Someone gave me a heads up of a flat spot half way down where I might have to skate. That would make for another embarrassing moment. You did the snowboard community proud! If I ever run into you up there… I’m always down and goldminers daughter on me. Heard some good things about the place. It would be cool walking in with snowboard boots.

[@BoredProgression]

You got it, Gary! Austin & I almost walked in lol.

[@couchpotatoinc]

4:47 still a valid excuse cause 85% of snowboarders don’t have the skill to go fast enough for the flats.

[@BoredProgression]

Doesn’t justify banning them. They’d naturally stop going there if it wasn’t fun getting stuck that much

[@Shred1904]

Awesome vid Dan! Props to filmer not a straightforward one filming a steep chute. Views are insane too

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks Rav! Austin is the man. You'll have to come back & do this one!

[@daneg]

looked like an absolutely beautiful day to hit that particular mountain. (I almost said "ski" a couple times in formulating that sentence! 😄)

[@BoredProgression]

Perfect conditions

[@tjdad13]

The video and scenery was made 100% better by snowboarders in it lol

[@BoredProgression]

FACTS!

[@ericvandereems6604]

I think the expectation when people watch this will be that Alta skiers will heckle and boo you out of the resort, but I think this shows that people are so chill and even excited to see you snowboarding there!

[@BoredProgression]

Idk if I’d say excited, but they definitely weren’t hostile this time around.

[@Gary-np7hl]

Back in the day, 2000s to early 10s. Everyone would point at you and yell “poacher” and if they got the attention of nearby ski patrol, you’d kindly get escorted down the mountain. Know lotsa folks who’ve done it, still haven’t myself.

[@kylebruna142]

Now do the High T

[@BoredProgression]

I’ve done it and high boy

[@rolansereny7565]

Dooode yaaaassssss!!! So awesome!!!!!!!

[@BoredProgression]

Yeah dawggy!! 🙌 You’ll have to join us next time!

[@Andrew.Drennan]

I mean I wish Alta allowed snowboarders but man I expected a bit harder ripping haha. Side slipping parts of main don't help the snowboard cause

[@BoredProgression]

Keeping pace for the filmer was the priority. I’d hardly call this side-slipping.

[@Shred1904]

​@BoredProgression so agree, can't ride at 100% when there's a filmer to worry about too!

[@nick-rl1xt]

Wait so how did he get up there

[@BoredProgression]

He (I) explain it in the first few seconds of the video. I’m gonna release a tutorial on how to do it step by step though.

[@whereisWALDOat]

Hike up High Baldy Traverse from Snowbird. Where you would normally strap in after the around 10 minute hike there's a gate to your right that gives you access to the top of Baldy with another 15 minutes of hiking. Once at the top you can hit Living the Dream back into Mineral Basin or a variety of chutes that drop you into Alta.

[@adamweb]

Never understood why Alta and Deer Valley still don't allow snowboards, what a dumb rule! If you stick around will they kick you out or just not let you on the lifts?

[@austyfrosty94]

They won't let you load lifts with a snowboard

[@BoredProgression]

They just won’t let you on the lifts.

[@danmullin]

I am a skier and I enjoy skiing both Alta and Deer Valley but their snowboard exclusion has nothing to do with why I enjoy skiing DV or Alta. In fact it is embarrassing explaining to people when they come visit me in Utah that two of three resorts in the US that exclude snowboards and their mostly middle aged responsible riders are in Utah. Most think it is weird. It is. The snowboard discrimination is just another culture oddity in the Beehive state. Oh well. Great video.

[@spencerethington]

I think the main reason alta doesn't allow it is because it's already very crowded, and most of the terrain is accessed by traverses. Deer valley is a terrible resort so you wouldn't wanna go there

[@BigPurpleSkiSuit]

Make Alta Snowboard again

[@BoredProgression]

Amen brother. 🫡

[@p.VAZ.]

if ever we needed a representative to put snowboarding at Alta on the map is definitely you!!! KicCK A$$!! snowboarders can ride Alta!!!

I’d gladly take on that role. ✌️

paying a filmer to record intermediate skill level is wild

Yeah totally. Good thing I have friends who film me instead for free.

Do you even snowboard? Talking shit with a empty channel is wild
