you continuing to commentate during a completely uncontrollable fall was amazing and hilarious

Having skied this run twice, I’ve found it essential to downclimb backwards into the entrance. Trying to slide in on your butt is kinda what caused this fall

I've only skied 2nd Notch one time. I loved the run, but when I climbed in there was no rope available. Climbing down that section without skis on was probably the scariest ski moment of my life. I faced into the mountain and climbed down backwards, kicking my toes in and making sure my footing was secure before moving my hands and ski gear down a step. It was a huge relief when I clicked into my skis. I think you did a good job on self arresting without your skis attached.

You should do a video on why bad skiers post ski videos and rank terrain they don't belong on.

a backpack is a must. Obviously. I'm like he's going to do this with skis in one hand. Way to ruin all that good snow by attempting something you weren't prepared for. lol one ski is the move. This guy has zero business being there.

Mountaineer pro tip everyone; FACE THE ROCK Why would you downclimb different than you would upclimb? Dig those toes in!

Yo bro - you got brass balls man...... pro tip - get yourself a backpack to carry the skis that way you can down climb with both hands and then when ready you take the skis off the pack when you are in position and have a little ledge dug - epic work tho. You got lucky you didn't go aaaaaaaaaaal the way to the bottom.

No expert here but that rope and climbing facing out is how you can get yourself dead. Even with knots rope can be frozen slippery and you have only one hand on it.. get a backpack. Always have 3 point of contact when doing this. 2 feet 1 hand, 2 hands one foot etc

Props for posting this. Gearing up on the steeps makes my heart race as much as anything. Glad it wound up a laughable event.

I just rode North Pole (the last chute) today. Gnarly stuff didn’t even know this one existed - Thanks for the post, will have to check this out!

Great job handling that and still presenting it to us.

HAHA love the commentary on the slide down

That climb back up at about 14k feet must have been exhausting. Props! And yeah glad you didn’t get hurt lol

I just did the 2nd notch last week, it's absolutely as sketchy as it looks. I recommend carrying skis/snowboard on your backpack.

Glad you’re safe! That experience looks gnarly.

😆I love this! The play by play as you go in and slide cracks me up! Hilarious! Love it! ... and for non-Basin skiers... it's not that bad... "Incredible Grip Strength"...LOL....love the added drama!

Thanks for sharing this video! I had a similar experience at snowbird this year and felt so embarrassed. It truly can happen to anyone.

This is one of the best videos I’ve ever seen

Great work and thank you for sharing. Quite a few turns on one ski. This reminded me of when Lane Meyer conquered K12 on one ski.

One of the best videos in all of Yt.
