This run is great all day until about 4 o'clock when everyone and their grandma decide it's a good idea to ski back down after folie on their second day of skiing instead of taking the lift

In the time Graham took to do that I think I would have just got my second turn in.

Speed trap apparently went in at the bottom after a death a few years back. This, along with Combe de Caron in Val Thorens are two of my favourite Black pistes.

Ouah !!! J’adore cette piste également mais j’avoue la faire en 2’10 👌👌👏👏 c’est vraiment phénoménal

I do enjoy your videos. I have a hard time appreciating the run at the speed you ski but to each his own. I would love to ski a few of the runs you shown but perhaps a little bit slower.

0:10 I lost my favourite hip flask off to the right of the start of this run back in 1998 - we were taking an off-piste route. If any one found it can you let me know. I still miss it.

Why do carry a hip flask when you’re skiing? Do you carry one when you’re driving?

I went down during half term week, and it was full of way too many people who just couldn't ski it. A really fun piste though.

At 1min 18secs he says not a lot of people come down this run. I guess he doesn’t ski this run in the afternoon… It’s actually the most crowded black run in Tignes from about 3pm onwards. Basically the only run back into Tignes le Lac from the Val d’Isere direction. The “narrow” part near the gondola is often a traffic jam late afternoon. 😢

Did you tell them in advance that you are going? So they have prepared pistes for you? Because usually they are in pretty bad shape, even in the mornings.

Trolles is great, you just need to pick your time. Really miss flying down that sucker😅

Did it in 2009 on a snowboard, you don't get the sense on this video, it's like going over a cliff when you switch from red to the black. You also have to get some speed as it feels like you have an audience coming back into the town. Was great first run of day but like most of the runs near the lifts in Tignes gets heavily mogulled by afternoon.

Uhm. A black run's when you can't see over the end of your skis. This is red at best and sometimes blue.
@jiros004 жыл бұрын
Nearly every black run has flatter parts. And the first part of this footage isn't on the black run as Graham made clear. The run Graham is on certainly has very steep parts from 1:30 onwards. And mostly you can see over the end of your skis even when it's steep unless you're leaning all the way back. Maybe not so much if on a ledge but that's not the issue.
@ivokoimecs4 жыл бұрын
The steepest part starts from 1:25, the max slope here is 64% - quite steep.

Combe folle from the top is red, from 1.06 it's Trolles, a black, and it's steep, great.
