Soddbuster - Aspen Highlands [4K]

Epic run! Love Deep Temerity and anyone who's ever skied it knows the commitment one of those runs takes!

[@arjunski]

Thanks man! I knew going in that this was going to be brutal and I was still shocked as to how consistently steep and long the Steeplechase area is!

[@Eclipseify-sk6np]

I gotta disagree I skied mushroom and it was very different than when i skied garsmich steeplechase is more steep and intense while temerity is more powdery and has alot of good stashes

[@arjunski]

...I'm not exactly sure what you're disagreeing with... I 100% agree that Steeplechase is much more intense but Temerity has better snow and more unique terrain.

Hay man that’s good skiing but one tip especially on bumps is to absorb the bump by crouching. The best way to put it is to have your shoulders at the same height all across the run. And also for high line bump skiing you want to stay low on top of the bump as you come up a little too early remember when turning you should just be extending your downhill leg and shortening your uphill which does not actually make you go higher but will make you look as though you are and remember you want your shoulders the same height accords the run. The height you want to be at across the run is where you can put your poles behind you legs and ski while holding them between you knees from above. This when you stop feeling sore is the right heigh for skiing at as you can get more pressure on the downhill ski so you want to be crouching and extending from that. A pole plant mag also help with keeping your shoulders down the hill but dong keep it in the snow too long as otherwise your shoulders will turn up the hill. Other than that great skiing. I know that run was hard and well done it was a cracking effort.

Thank you so much man! I've heard of this tip before but it's definitely one I gotta work more on implementing when skiing really steep bumps like these!

@@arjunski NWs bro. One thing that helps me is always try to do one thing at a time e.g focus of one this per lift or even one thing per day. It feels like slow progress but if you can nail it then you don’t have to keep revisiting it. But Yh keep it up bro

Anything off that Deep Temerity chair is ridiculous. How are you liking the Black Crows?

[@arjunski]

Completely agree! I checked out your videos of the zone before I came to Highlands so I knew Deep Temerity was going to be steep, but not this steep. The fact that these runs are lift serviced blows my mind! I'm absolutely loving my Black Crows Atris so far! They're amazing in pretty much all conditions other than really firm bumps/groomers
