Upper Pole // Timing is Everything

These days it's almost impossible to get any Amateurs to travel to exotic locations with large, white capped peaks. Luckily, There's a couple local mountains that provide entertainment and training during the interludes. Cascade is just such a mountain. Lots of good options on this local peak but that doesn't mean we'll take advantage of any of those options. It's also nice to get Christof out of the cockpit and into a couloir.

[@benjaminfox-shapiro4032]

Christof is singlehandedly responsible for selling more Dynafit apparel than their entire marketing team

[@danielgrazioli1601]

I saw ortovox and hagan, too :))

[@gavindowding]

Do these guys just love dynafit or are they sponsored? Im surprised by how much they wear cuz I get very little exposure to that brand in california.

[@paulmelde919]

@@gavindowdingChristof is a big fan and wears it all the time in the vids. It’s great advertising for them, free as far as I know.

[@Joe-nb3fs]

Also Suntory

[@cnuila]

@@Joe-nb3fsmore intensity!

Here I was struggling to find something interesting to watch on KZbin, when I was gifted a new episode of Mediocre Awesomeness!!! THANKS! Sunday made!

[@aeriegrove]

word!

[@erikseymour1]

Same

[@caseyhorne4584]

Best outdoors KZbin channel!

[@DaBeeClimber]

Agreed

[@austinado16]

100%

[@poetac15]

For sure

[@mitchellmclaughlin6360]

The fact that Danny felt the need to have a Prime disclaimer is hilarious. You can tell he's had it with crappy comments haha. Love y'all

[@user-nv1gg1dh7r]

To borrow from Tyson, Danny's co-host on News AF, Logan Paul we know you have a combover because you're balding. You can't hide from us.

[@panksdmz]

“I’ve run the numbers” was the highlight of this adventure for me. Love it guys. Thanks for your lovely adventures

[@robmills7611]

Been a minute and I've REALLY MISSED you doing something with your old buddies! So when is the old gang going to do a group adventure again? I love ya Danny but I really love it when we get the humorous interaction amongst the gang! Hope you guys got something planned for this Summer! 👍❤️

[@alaskan_bergwanderer]

It's always a great day when MA drops new content. I'm no skier, but man watching your videos actually makes me want to try to learn someday. ....someday.... lol

[@hainesftw90]

Nice to see Christof on land with you again! Also nice to see you getting close to 100k subs.

[@saltydog6241]

It should be a million. I blame the 95% that are too lazy and selfish to tap the like button on each episode.

[@seahog32]

No one puking for a long time and now even ebikes?! Mend your ways guys!

[@TorchIGN]

No one barely dying ffs

[@krisztian007]

Danny is just happy that Christof is on an adventure with him not loading the FMS on the other side of the world. I remember when he was called an "intern" and now he is the star of MA. Good hire Danny! 😀

[@jwhoward182]

I was watching this video and noticed in the reflection of my iPad that I had a big smile on my face. Bravo!

[@Reece111]

Almost at 100k finally! well deserved

[@pyroe87]

I love the music. I don't see myself getting tired of it.

[@josephzaker]

100K. You got it!

[@gohardinlife2]

Dam the drone shot at the end was amazing

[@snobotz]

For me it was the shots where the mountain range was visible in the background along with the ski descent.

[@gohardinlife2]

Always smash that like button before the video starts. I know im in for a treat whenever mediocre uploads

[@darren6110]

I just love this channel and all the guys. Watched each video many times over...cant get enough!

[@jahyeh83]

I thought I was the only person that liked Lost in Translation. Great movie reference, Christof!

[@andyman127]

I started watching these and wanting to head out with Danny... while I still do, I know watch and want to do more with Christof LOL

[@eteceo6493]

SPRING RIDING, gotta love it !!! i keep my whisperlite in my pack for mornings like these. piece of bacon or two, watch the sun, check the forecast and wait for the snow to slush :)

[@Novometix]

pretty epic that you guys use HAGAN Skis. A skicompany not far away from my hometown in Austria. Have fun and enjoy!

[@jakekaiser1399]

I love the reset and redemption ski! Happens to the most mediocre of us

[@BearPlane747]

Congrats on 100k!

[@jacobjdong]

drone shot at 10:23 is 10/10

[@jonathanthomforde6133]

Kristof’s back🔥

[@Wasatch_linds]

Almost to 100k! You guys are awesome!

[@wilsonbrianc]

I appreciate the Lost in Translation reference on top of a mountain.

[@TomD2fan]

Greetings from Poland (EU) love watching y'rs videos guys ✌️🤙

[@pianowizardray]

Congrats on 100K

[@austinado16]

So great to see you guys on an adventure together! Christof is a beast, and I could tell he was worked during that first stop and narration. And then to ski steep icy snow on thin flexible skis, with torched legs (while wearing a pack)... You are both next level, of the next level. Great job on this one, and congrats on the sweet bikes!!

[@andromeda1439]

WE NEED MORE EPISODES. MUCH LOVE TO DANNY AND CHRISTOF FOR THESE GEMS

[@codiacstudios]

you are an inspiration Danny! Amazing shots and great editing as usual.

[@snorbie]

My Sunday just got better 👍😀

[@BobBroeking]

Yeah I did an impromptu glissade on spring snow in Colorado once without a glove and tore my hand up big time doing a controlled self arrest as I wet down.... ouch. Nice vdeo as always...almost to 100K!

[@traviss8354]

Haha, my 8 year old step-son introduced me to Prime. I don't think he knows who Logan Paul is either, just knows that it's popular amongst classmates. Seems that 8 year olds are their core demographic. Glad to see the boys out together. It doesn't always have to be some exotic adventure, these kinds of local daytrips are fun to see too.

[@ulrichgloeckl6072]

Nice! Finally back where it all started

[@briankurth4405]

Salt Lake City seems like such a great location for both city and outdoors life.

[@kraigstenberg9094]

Always visual and audible enjoyment. Thank you

[@gardenhose590]

Great one, as always. Love the drone shots at the end. Always motivating Danny. Thanks!

[@user-qm3xs9eb6m]

Killing it as always

[@richardblair919]

Great fun, and great to see Christof have an Assisted Skiing day.

[@jaredempey5706]

Great to see your adventures close to home as well as your big objectives

[@pagewhite8177]

Come on 100K!! Great video as always. Thank you.

[@rowdypowripper]

Congratz on 100,000 SUBS~!

[@BreakOutOfTheAlgorithm]

I love everything about this channel!👍🔔👁️💓👁️

[@scha0306]

Glad to see that the ~$20K+ in ebikes you stashed were still there when you got back!

[@alexroseinnes]

Danny definitely trolling Christof by calling him a 777 pilot.

[@oliverbuc1307]

Please don't ever stop. Thanks.

[@redskins1120]

This really made my day!

[@robinsmith9734]

Just fantastic Danny, an extra boost having the triple 7 man along, missed you all. The white stuff reigns............

[@jerrycamp5235]

Better-than-average amateurs I’d say! Smooth turns, good vibes, yay!

[@justinbayola]

Almost perfect boys, gorgeous spring day

[@desviz]

11:35...Sweet! I can hear that Coen sign! Great seeing Christof!

[@smcheeto]

congrats on 100k!

[@hankmishima4798]

Awesome fun and good combination of fat tie bike and traditional trekking. Appreciate the details on the skin/crampon combo. I have my eyes on a set for me at OMC for my new AST setup. Thanks for sharing!

[@benc.8103]

Best of both worlds. Bike and skiing.

[@tulpia8767]

Danny ! Next time you come to Europe you should do the GR20 in Corsica 😊

[@michaelsherwin282]

Just like the old days. Sweet!

[@CorentinHarbelot]

What a Life!

[@jeremyquiros5483]

Also I just got back from a trip with some trans-Pacific United 777 flights. I was really hoping to get Christof as our pilot on one of those flights!

[@gleneverett9728]

Great stuff I’m heading out on a mountain bike ride on my own

[@ludovici42]

7 min in might have felt bad, but that footage is 🔥 👌

[@johnmartinsen963]

Almost 100K subs ❣❣❣ Way to go

[@seanjohnson1794]

Christof is a great sport

[@TheWillRogers]

Vibes were incredible in the vid.

[@josephhulsey7662]

I’m always up for a “Mediocre Amateur “ adventure!!! My fav!

[@user-rl3ef4ju9k]

Kudos for showing the risks of slipping and sliding.

[@Levi_Allen]

100k celebrations are around the corner!

[@danielgrazioli1601]

good work folks :)

[@andreyv1]

Thank you for the disclaimer on prime 😂 the whole time I was thinking: “does Christof know what he’s promoting?”

[@thecommission5730]

at least it was sunny!

[@Axemanvan]

Pushin P!!!

[@robertwynkoop7112]

Which is more dangerous? Climbing and skiing with Danny or flying a Boeing?

[@dryaldibread2327]

When alpine climbing?😢

If you get 2 week vacation take (3) days 5 times per year include the weekend and shift with holidays that's 5 full weeks off per year

[@palicar]

Going to SLC next month for a cycling vacation. Been a while.

[@brianharder7714]

Can the sun glasses get any larger? I was weaned on Vuarnets many years ago. I thought Oakley Factory Pilots were bad....lol.

[@Blato_]

Woah, two uploads in April! Hoping for some European action this year as well

[@juliaferguson7357]

Great vid - it's been too long since you posted 🙂

[@bryanpaulsicard4798]

See I thought Christof was pushing Lost in Translation, a push I highly endorse!

[@michaelpuett6358]

Yay Christof! what happened to Blake and Arron and Matt!?

[@Logan-kj8be]

Speaking of "Cascade", can I suggest a celebratory Ptarmigan Traverse once you reach 100k subscribers?

[@juliangeorge2026]

man i miss utahhhhhhh

[@stevenpeterson659]

Looks like Christof is in Hagan boots. Is a review coming?

[@funbluerider]

Christoff!

[@erikseymour1]

Christoph is back! Is Matt too busy jet setting?

[@glena2481]

Anyone know which specific Ortovox pants that Christof is wearing? I need me some :)

[@braxtona.4575]

Insane this channel is under 100k

[@expatadventureturkey9324]

Come on let’s get to a 100,000 Subscribers “Much deserved” great content, can’t wait for the summer ultra distance suck fest. 🤙🏽

[@KaitlynMcLachlan]

What’s the pack? Is that the black diamond distance?

[@rutterj2]

Whats up with those sunglasses, Danny??

[@jeremyquiros5483]

I know the Mediocre Amateurs love their synthetic energy beverages, but the timing of this video is fitting with the Prime lawsuits 😅

[@erickelly5395]

100k subs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[@silasstuebs6441]

Hey Mom! The new Mediocre Amateur video just dropped!

[@ChewieTomatoes1]

Finally figured out what this MA crew do for work and it makes more sense how they afford what they do whether it’s in gear or travel. They’re literally all high income earners with specialized careers whether it’s a commercial pilot, lawyer, professor, consultant etc. They all put in the time and work in their 20s and early 30s to get to this point. Work hard, play hard is a real thing.

[@chrisa2761]

Got my Mediocre fix, now I'm good!
