Sunny summit day at Mt. Bachelor with Andrew Orlich, "Let's take a lap!"

Спорт

There are only a handful of days in the winter when the conditions are good enough for the summit chair at Mt. Bachelor to open. The extreme atmospheric conditions lead to a wild amount of ice and rime that forms on the chairlift, and the mountain. The weather has to be clear, as its all above treeline, and its a big job to for patrol to do the control work necessary to be able to ski 360 off the top of the mountain. This season we have seen a few of these days and I was stoked to link up with Andrew Orlich, a close friend, a guy who grew up skiing this place, and who absolutely rips.

    The best parts of these videos is how relatable they are. The days cruising your favorite laps at your local hill with the crew are the best.

    It does, and has Ben said before it’s a blessing and curse for the mountain, it whips up the coolest, terrain and features, but also can blow 100 mile an hour mid mountain on the regular definitely creates a challenging environment for lift ops, and makes for Skiing once it’s over.

    Hey Sage, what length bent 110 do you run? I’m going to purchase this model, but I’m on the fence between 180 and 188. I’m 5’10 190lb and try to ski similar to how you are in this video. Thanks brother!

    I use the 188. You definitely want to use that as well as I’m a little bit shorter and lighter. it skis a little on the smaller side because of it twin tip nature. I mount mine usually one CM back from recommended just to give the Ski a little bit more tip, it’s super fun and I really enjoy it for the playful kind of days.

    Secondly, do you have any footage of a summit-base run? When i go on ski trips i like to make videos of the trip to the mountain/town, stuff to do in the town, just to have for the future to send people when they ask what the trip was like, if they are thinking of going. My buddies go-pro died the day we did those runs so we didn't get anything before the storm rolled in. If you'd be willing to share footage of one of your longest/scenic runs i would appreciate the heck out of it and obviously credit. Won't get more than a few hundred views at best on my channel though.
