I have a friend who was an exceptional skier, he even got to speeds like 127 km/h. He has race skies and never ever was he faster than my old snowboard. I was going 70km/h max, because my board was starting to vibrate horrible at higher speeds, but within that speed, I was faster indeed. If you want I can tell you how to go straight on your edge 😁

So hard to gauge when and where to pass some people, especially when they are carving the entire trail as if they are the only ones on the trail.

I love how this video was more about having fun and making a fun excuse to make a video vs actual "science" of who's faster.

I snowboarded for 10 years, then went back to skiing. This is a perfect example of why. Going fast downhill, is more suited to skis, as you have double the feel and double the edge control to regulate speed and direction. Also, you have the added advantage of not getting held back on flat areas, or just slowly navigating around crowds, getting on/off lifts etc Boards are definitely more fun, when conditions are good, just cruising around and looking for features to pop off, but theres a reason skis have been around for centuries, and have been used as the natural vehicle of the mountains by outdoors people and even soldiers. Will always love my board, but for most applications, in most conditions, skis just work better!

Snowboarding is better in the park, in backcountry and in free ride. Almost all technologies that make ski enjoyable were developped by snowboarders (crved edges, camber, rocker, multilayer construction).

I find it impressive when snowboarders are able to rip down a hard icy hill at speed. Skiers might not think it so difficult, but they have at least twice the edge length as we do. We also don't have a second edge to fall back on when one slips out.

Worked great on about 6"-8" of average snow starts to struggle a bit past 8". kzread.infoUgkxoHYZbq5g9fkcAtinlTqstNlje-UQkCHN Very light weight and the chute spin control works well. For the low price you get a ton of value. My only complaint is managing the cord as it does take a fair bit of effort to watch and pull the cord out of the way. I found myself having to whip the cord out of the way a lot when I needed to make one way passes to mange the blow direction. It's less of an issue when you can work both directions. A battery powered version would be a lot easier to handle but that is also double the price and requires battery care. I chose the corded version so I didn't have to worry about batteries but I do now see how much work the cord is. I let my neighbor borrow it and it outperformed his smaller gas blower, he was totally sold. Very pleased with the power and operations.My only suggestion is to spend a bit more on a cordless version if you have budget for it. The cord is a bit more of a headache than I thought it would be. Very pleased with the Snow Joe brand and quality.

That's amazing control at that speed on such an icy run!

Speeding on a snowboard is quite scary, especially on messed up and bumpy pistes, and honestly i don't like it very much, especially as a beginner, always on the verge of catching an edge :p I find myself having much more fun on wide green or blue slopes than on any red (or black, but i haven't ridden any yet. I rode my very first red the last day of last season). But that's kind of a pain in the ass when all your friends ski. You just get left behind, they have to wait for you at the end of every run. So you try to keep up and end up falling and hurting yourself X) Anyway, enough rambling from me. As always it's a pleasure to see you ride :) And Viv looked quite fast indeed!

snowboarding is about feel not speed efficiency

Glad to see you two and the other folks out there each made it down the hill in one unmashed piece. The rocks alongside the runs could easily cause death if you hit them with your head at 30 or 40 kmh in a slide, helmet or not. A couple of the questions I like to ask hotshots who go straight down the fall line without turning is, "What's more fun, snowboarding for 1 day or 2 days?", "What's more fun, snowboarding for 1 hour or 2 hours?", and "What's more fun, snowboarding for 5 minutes or 10 minutes?" I think the fun of snowboarding arises from acceleration more than speed, whether the acceleration is lateral or vertical in direction. How can you accelerate all the way down the hill? Turn continuously. That's centripetal acceleration, assuming you are taking a curving path and not just skidding on a board turned across the direction of travel.

Love how there’s not too much talking in the start like a lot of you tubers! Also my anxiety was like going insain when u hit 90 like😭🤌

Just remember any crash at that type of speed can have life changing effects. I crashed last March at 65 kph and broke my neck (and too many other injuries to list), so be careful on the slopes. And yes, I'm back on the hill this year, got 11 days in now.

a longer wide board will certainly help with better control at high speeds. You will sacrifice some turning quickness though. I am 6'2 230 ride a 162 wide. My first board was 169 then I went as low as 155. Short boards are nice if going into tight places and have to make quick turns. But they will start to chatter at high speeds. A 163W camber board would probably be ideal for you. Biggest thing is making sure you are riding your edges and not sliding back of your board to turn and slow down.

@@KaliAndy2 I tried a blue run with a steep entrance going into a flat long straight. I went flat base and still didn't top 40km/h according to my Sportly app. The only time I remember going over 40 was when I demoed a 162w board. Maybe I'm too heavy for my board so even the base drags and slows me down. It's hard to get the right size and availability of the boards I want locally.

That was fun! :) Congrats to you both! :)

Awesome! So cool to have those super long runs all the time!!

This is so AMAZING i love going snowboarding i am begginner tho But its VERY FUN i will recomend trying this

That was a nice long route, nice job!! I would have stopped twice to take a break.

Great to watch, but why no helmet? Especially when you say it was bumpy and icy, and you are racing. Skier had better sense this time ;-) I think you lost because of the flat section and way too many turns at the start.

@@SnowwithEmilyJo Ah yes - sorry Malcolm, I take it back! :-) Thanks, Emily Jo! It is clear from the start of the video...it was just so smooth at the end when he took it off...

Respect to you both 🙌Im glad your legs burn to . Is the dance haul still the board of choice for the faster stuff?

It was relaxing enough to watch that i didn't speed it up even!

good fun. there's some snow forecasted for today night 🤞🤞

this was great, I used to go much faster on snowboard tho, but still great watch!

Dang that was a long run! I need to find a good long run like that one.

What a run. You guys are both great!

you guys are top on my list. you just killed il. 👍

Interesting run; more like an alpine road zig zagging down to the valley. Any fall line runs there, or is mostly like this?

That was Outstanding! Thank you!

I like how you had a real-time course map.

I skied once on a school trip but since then never again. Recently got interested in it again and was wondering why I was so cautious about skiing before. This video has reminded me why: because of all the sheeple on the pists.... This is so fricking stressful, like why don't people just generally ski e.g. on the right side of the track and let fast people move on the left?

done this many times, and always in a moment of the flat board I was sliding faster than flat skis. But on the entire slope skier of about similar level/experince always comes faster because 1) two working ski edges give more control than one on a board; and 2) facing ahead gives more speed allowance for the skier. I've done maximum 102 kph (alone in the morning) on a stiff board, and my friend on the skis next morning made 114 kph.

That good hope to see you one day on track

At the beginning I thought "hm, I recognise this route". Checked the description and I have in fact done this route many times before! Good to see a familiar slope :D

Love these videos

Whats the angle of your stance during this run? Are you using a one directional board? Newish snowboarder here.

Fantastic race! I knew skier is faster than snowboarder but I was wondering really how it could look like. Board rules. :)

What do you use to put the speed on the side of the screen it's pretty cool

nah, i gotta troll you for not sending it at least 80km/h on a directional snowboard lol. you did it once and your control was beautiful, have more confidence in your riding. good video tho, looked so fun, love long runs.

I used to work on top of Andesite Mtn at Big Sky in MT. We would race down after work to try to get a couple lift rides in. Ambush is a pretty steep blue run. I hit 62.1 there once. I was on the ragged edge. Washed out on that run more than once. I have the gps to prove it. On a mid-2000’s 158 Ride Timeless. A couple skiers that worked with me would leave me standing still.

Let's be honest here, she is very very good. Majority of good skiers would struggle to keep up with you. I am talking guys who skied all their lives and get plenty of days on the mountain every year.
