POV snowboarding Mammoth Mountian Before it Closed

[@lisabattig1304]

Thanks for posting this Blair!! I had the good fortune to be a snowboarder in the early 2000s with a bunch of skier friends who knew Mammoth really well and would take me on tree run after tree run. Such amazing memories. I was supposed to head up with a friend Monday, so this was the perfect POV gift. Maybe I'll watch it again next week and just dream that I'm there... Stay safe and keep that rad grandma of yours safe.

[@DrewsPools]

Was supposed to be in Mammoth this weekend. So bummed all of the resorts are shut down. This is some pretty incredible footy though, you guys scored some nice conditions!

[@SkidKids]

Yeah, we got super lucky! I have a feeling we might not be snowboarding until next season

[@PhaseSkater]

what do you mean all resorts?

[@ryansharp2427]

KTM280 I went up March 14 and on that day the mountain was open for 2 hours due to wind and then to fucking top it off the resort shut down

[@JuanFlores-qd6uj]

PhaseSkater a lot of resorts had to close down due to Covid-19 just to prevent it from spreading like a precaution

[@harryhobo8875]

I feel you bro

[@deadtome44]

Nice, suns out too. Nothing like a day in the California trees when you get one of those dumper storms.

[@chrisstgeorge3016]

This is some awesome footage, no insane tricks or anything just enjoying the mountain. Awesome video.

[@billbowyer1194]

I’ve started all these things like surfing, skimboarding and skiing cause of you thank you for all you do, don’t ever stop making vids

[@lorddicklebowski8459]

I was looking for spots to jump all the time! Thanks for sheering. What a nice day.

[@chickentendas1058]

Sign: You are leaving the boundaries. STOP! Blair: Ok guys we made it to the shred spot. 😂

[@sidekickadventures1569]

I've seen a lot of mammoth videos and that was definitely one of the best! conditions looked soooo fun!

[@alarmclock7709]

That was a nice day I am thankful the last day before all skiing and snowboarding hills closed was so nice

[@Manuko]

What a good session ! Snowboarding is my best sport since thirty years. And for ten years now, I only ride the D1 6"+ from Dupraz. A very good weapon for all snow condition 😉 Manuko from french north Alps, see ya 🤘

[@Manuko]

Hey !! It's me kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKeTin9niL54bZI During a good session with Serge Dupraz and friends

[@nathanwilkinson4614]

Love the mix up in videos! Keep safe in this coronavirus outbreak, make sure there are videos to get me through lockdown 🙏🏼

[@RichieMTB]

I was out there 2 weeks before you. I miss it so much! I love making my own lines in the snow though!

[@sam_s_]

I had just arrived in Mammoth a few hours before they announced the closure. I was actually sitting in a hot spring when somebody walked up and broke the news to eveybody. I had a 4 day trip planned and there were several feet of snow coming in. I was so heartbroken that I got back in my truck and drove back to San Diego the same day I drove up. It was a long day.

[@johnburns4951]

Shoulda stayed and hicked back country 🤩🤔

[@cooper8923]

Haven’t watched in a while and never expected a snowboard video. Sick!

[@SkidKids]

I don't think anyone else expected it either, doesn't seem like snowboarding is a big hit with our audience haha

[@bassbros3285]

this might be the most satisfying video i've ever seen

[@JB-rt4mx]

Excellent clip !! I was skiing Mammoth from 1977 to now...I snowboard too..some clips of Hangmans Hollow...Huevos Grande...Drop Out & Elevator Shaft would be awesome...Your Wedge Crew is Outta Site !! ps. what is the music...I love it 🎶🎧

[@SkidKids]

yess! glad you enjoyed. the music is from a website called Epidemic sound.

[@Sam-hf8nq]

Great footage and skills. Loved the giant pillows at around 4:30. Increasingly people are leaving background music out of their sports vids...really no need for it. Would rather just hear your pure stoke and the sound of slicing through that gorgeous snow.

[@calebtatola8236]

I’m not gay but Blair is such a beaut

[@nickc3856]

you're gay

[@spgeddie]

@ 4:25 got me so pumped and I'm not even the one ridingggg

[@kaseycesena3996]

Great video lol I love mammoth tho I've only snowboard their once it was a good drive to it but it's so huge lol runs everywhere lol

[@phobowl]

Oh man, thank you for this while we're in social isolation. Just beautiful man.

[@traviscurtin7383]

I really enjoy the skim.... but that video was unreal.. keep it up Blair!

[@SkidKids]

Hahaha more skim coming

[@j0shgreene]

Super sick edit. Way to power-slide through that avalanche! Killing it Blair.

[@SkidKids]

hahaha that was a mini one thankfully

[@kevinsoto7878]

Back when times were simpler, man I miss shredding.

[@kosycat1]

4:47 best shot!

[@namaikatifostata8794]

Yo man I just unlocked snowboarding and u inspired me to start skimming thanks

[@joelparker6560]

That beat drop at 7:30👌🔥

[@mohawkman7836]

Great video!!

[@jtrapschuh]

Nice runs! Wish I would have made it up before the closure

[@colinfitzgerald2426]

So sick the king of all boards

[@cameronrohde8697]

awesome video Blair!

[@SkidKids]

Yeww! Thanks Cameron

[@John-s4v2l]

loved this video blair - really refreshing content

[@SkidKids]

Thanks John, we try to mix it up best we can. It appears we need to be more conscious of what our audience wants to watch. Snowboarding doesn't seem to be a big hit haha

[@John-s4v2l]

@@SkidKids As long as the content is you having a blast shredding I think you will have an audience forever Blairacuda

[@fl4650]

Excellent vid!

[@justintime5252]

Damnnnn surfing the mountain!!!! Looks sick

[@SkidKids]

Its the best, 2nd favorite sport behind skimming.

[@yxngbt387]

So much fresh pow... I wish I’m on the ice coast lol

[@ESSperling]

Nice! Snow looked epic that day. Where them pillows at @4:20 at?? @Skid Kids

[@je5406]

This is what it's all about!!!

[@TheNinjaLF]

Envy, look at that powder :o

[@Винур17]

Sooo smoooooth.....😍🥶🏂

[@lucian1597]

Where is that pow pillow field!? That was so sick dude!

[@camrynpirente2575]

at 1:13 start listening to Young Folks by Peter Bjorn and John and you wont regret the early 2010s vibes

[@arturlavrik665]

soo wonderful places and so simple riding ... =/

[@EL_Clutch_Dumper]

I woulda rode that pillow section all day, wish it was steeper though

[@thejlags5709]

Had a cabin up there near eagle lodge but my grandpa sold it :/ won’t be the same but you can bet I’m going there as soon as it opens 🤙🏼

[@SkidKids]

Dang! Eagle Lodge is my favorite. I always try to start the day there

[@twins213rb]

Great footage brother!

[@iloveamerica5047]

Resort: warning leaving the boundaries Me and my son: we are here!

[@jsimo65]

Awesome content

[@yeboy3267]

Sweet vid

[@shreddonkers]

Blair! Come to Canada next season and come pow surfing!!!!

[@shreddonkers]

I just realized you snowboard goofy footed but you skim regular? What?!?

[@Ryan-tn8ph]

Loved this video. I skied 1 day the whole season and it got shut down😭, got 0 refund on my pass too whereas my friends who skied 0 days got full refunds😕

[@Royce69]

Sick. I'm hoping to make it up there for the first time this winter

[@lshanw]

I've been subbed to you from the beginning, and I've watched all the skid kids vids, but for some reason, I had no idea this one existed! super sick vid.. what routes were you riding down here? I'm assuming it wasn't on the main part of the mountain??

[@SkidKids]

Yeah, It was on the backside. Super fun day of boarding

[@dr.burnquistxoidel5388]

Gnarly moguls!! 🏔️

[@Justintime246]

Looks delicious 🤤

[@LF-Productions]

Yo where is the traverse to get here? It looks sickkkk also how is the hike out? I think I heard you say 20 mins in the intro?

[@alexmiranda7852]

4:25 is crazy pretty

[@glen9248]

Yeehhhh that's how it's donneee son😎🏂🤙

[@tyleruskating9874]

very cool

[@floridaboy9641]

What camera were you using? That video looked amazing!

[@SkidKids]

I was Using the GoPro 8. the image stabilizer on that thing is pretty awesome

[@stephenmauro1770]

Holly smokes, at 4:17 What makes these humps? are they small trees covered with snow? How deep is the snow on the tree?

[@joshuahawkins8529]

Sick man! 🙏

[@fabioaraujo1477]

Omgggg amazing 🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂

[@corinneconklin8781]

Nice edit-I had no idea you are good at this sport too! A but nerve wracking for me to watch though!

[@SkidKids]

Im a pretty calculated person, you should know that by now

[@zacharyrhodes5157]

Makes me miss shredding

[@yaroslavkrasnovskyi5881]

So when you get down, do you walk to the lift? is it a big walk?

[@ClaytonMalott]

epic vid! did you have a beacon?

[@namseidon5629]

Killin man!!! where did u find that pillow line?

[@croma7671]

Try going down the mountain with your Blairacuda skimboard, I bet the fishies would wanna give you lots of baby snow kisses

[@fishman3166]

You can tell how he’s using his surfing and skateboarding technique.

[@willmoran5694]

Fishman 07 I was thinking the same thing.

[@PhilipKlawitter]

1:44 hemlocks are the best.

[@thew26x]

rip the good days

[@jeffy69ism]

And chair 9 😊

[@stefanstunts184]

what kind of mount are you doing? just got my first gopro a few weeks ago and I cant figure out how to get nice pov shots like this :)

[@SkidKids]

i use the pro-standard mouth mount

[@Hodko]

What camera do you use bro it’s incredible!

[@longboardslider343]

Go pro, the color is because this mans got fire color grading skills.

What part of mammoth mountain is 4:17? I have never seen terrain that pillowy

[@Nick-gh6le]

Don’t you just wish it was winter rn

[@rogerjdf]

Love the video bro What’s the name of the soundtrack starting at 1:30? Love the vibe

[@SkidKids]

not so sure but we get all of our music from music bed

[@leonicbass]

Ayyy I hear that Dirtybird in the intro

[@jackkelly21110]

damn this powder is unreal

Yeah rly, wish i could ride it

[@willloomis1276]

Blair is all terrain vehicle. Shred pow

[@SkidKids]

Pow is just the best

[@deansacca781]

Is that over on the back side or Dragons Tail ?

[@rubenjasoncarangue581]

maybe go longboarding or skate next? hahahaha this is sick too tho! 🤙🤙🤙

[@SkidKids]

Hahaha think we might stick to skimming and surfing for our next videos. It appears that our audience didn't appreciate this whole snowboarding thing much

[@rubenjasoncarangue581]

@@SkidKids I really appreciated this, since there's no snow here in the 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 hahaha

[@olgarekhlova]

Чуваки у вас видосики!👍

[@DoctaFoxXx]

Yo Blair, could you share what board you're riding here? Looks like it floats well in the powder.

[@SkidKids]

to be quite honest, I have no idea what it is.

[@IamEmmett]

Was that pillow section around 4:20 and on, on the resort, or off resort?

[@Chris-mx4jb]

looked like dragons back

[@kirstencourtney8792]

Knowing that hitting a tree at 45+ mph in a CAR accident is a high likelihood of death, it makes me REALLY nervous watching you guys go through all those trees. I know you are super pros but it STILL makes me super nervous.

[@SkidKids]

I appreciate your concerns. Me and all my friends wear helmets. Realistically I was probably going about 10mph through the trees

[@kirstencourtney8792]

@@SkidKids It looks so much faster on video, lol. I'm not a skier so I really don't know but it just made me nervous for you! I knew someone as a teenager who attempted suicide by hitting a tree in a car. Fortunately they survived but I always think about how dangerous trees are when hit. I don't even like driving in the right lane on the highway, lol. I'm glad y'all know what you're doing, take care!

[@ThePerpetualStudent]

That was my one problem with mammoth is that when it gets dumped on it just is not steep enough.

[@teenproductions4501]

Hey I love your vids because of you I won a skimboard comp and i won it with one of your boards You are the best blane

Will it open by Christmas?

[@03jgonzalez]

Is this the hemlocks!?

[@MG-sg2ci]

What area is that at 4:15 and 4:20, crazy pillows.

[@SkidKids]

That is on the dragons back traverse path. Its a leg burner to get over there. it seems like those pillows only exist early season and then go away after it snows more
