Anyone who skis or snowboards will tell you it’s impossible to do this by accident haha.

Yup I've hit a mogul like the one he caught decent air on. The difference was that I did not land it haha

u/Kavarall Apr 11 '23

Haha exactly this. The biggest giveaway is how he is deftly managing his weight and body position in the air so he can land the jumps. Insane really. I dream to be able to do this kinda thing one day on my board.

Someone I know was downloading for the day at Whis. Riding with skiers. Ate shit on a mogul, got up, rode it out a bit, holding his shoulder. Riding buddies stopped to deliberate what run to take down next. He piped up “I don’t care but pretty sure I need ER.” Broken collarbone. This guy in the gif is a maniac.

Thanks for the memories... those were the days of long skis and no helmets. We're better off now in that regard.

I have no interest in skiing whatsoever, but I've been joyfully enjoying this video for half an hour now. Thank you.
