Popular Post crackaddict Posted March 7, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) The sun Finally came out! Had to share this clip with you boys (it won't be public until the edit is complete). Best conditions, best part of the mountain (very steep, narrow, and concave!), best turns I can do. Perfect day!

Xargo Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 Excellent stuff! That concave bit made me extra jealous. It can be so irritating to get a good grip for deep turns when the slope is convex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pitch Black of course, left of the tree island just below Stoke base. 6 hours ago, pow4ever said: Nice! remind me of pig chute in turner. this one seems even steeper Way steeper! Can't tell in the video but this is one of the steepest sections on a very steep mountain. 4 hours ago, Deuxdiesel said: Outstanding! Gear selection for those videos? I have a lot of boards, this is one my Contra 169s, 12m sidecuts, 296mm waists, this is the stiff one. 3 hours ago, digger jr said: You're giving Redman a run for his money on those 360s:) @dredman and I developed that trick together back at Targhee circa 2009, but he gets full credit for the second spin. My jaw dropped the first time I saw him do it at ATC in Aspen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crackaddict Posted March 8, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 One more unlisted clip from the same day... Conditions were not as good up high but the videography is cooler. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Gendzwill Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 Wow! Very nice. That video does not show the steepness you describe. It seems that’s one thing that doesn’t come through well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that’s one thing that doesn’t come through well. I look for the angle of things like trees to the slope as the centre of the shot goes cross slope. Wide angle lenses produce lots of distortions towards the edges of the visual frame. Having ridden at Revelstoke I can vouch for how Pitch Black is intimidatingly STEEP.
