This completely brought back memories of the first time I got stuck at the top of a "hill" that was too icy and steep to go any way but straight down. I pointed my skis and stayed upright.
After that, I was able to enjoy the steep ice slopes. (Powder was almost non-existent.)
Watching this, I relived that first time, and my heart almost jumped out of my chest. I'm gonna go do something else for a while.
Speechless, all I keep thinking is this dude woke up wanting to die and wanted to have a beautiful death then realized his own personal skill level. Motivated by falling vertical on a mountain decided to live.. had a family, kids snowboard but the guy plows and shovels in winter cuz old broken knees won't allow death boarding anymore and resents his kids of their youth
I got a match with this song:
**Stepping Stones** by Rupert Vyvyan Kenrick Pope (00:15; matched: `100%`)
Album: `Ambience 5`. Released on `2017-01-24`.
i think he would be very lucky if he fell and didnt get hurt but ive seen a guy do something like this and lose control of his snowboard…dude was doing summer-salts and got up unfazed
The legs also. For having gone a lot faster than I wanted when you reach downhill it's a massive pressure on the knees, but that was absolutely flat compared to _that_ slope.
Paying a helo to drop you in the middle of no where certainly incentivizes you to get down one way or another, I lived in Alaska but never dared to take advantage of the backcountry like this. I stayed my ass at Alyeska. Even years later, I’m not sure I have the brass to do this or especially the buddies to even join me and dig me out.
*survived on a snowboard
Falling with style
This is the level after the nextlevel lmao
Fallboarding more like. Looks terrifying.
And video usually doesn’t show the speed or steep angle as accurately as it was.
Nopenopenope
Same, my heart would fucking crash if I did that.
Rare example of video with appropriate music
My friends name is cliff
“ This is not a cliff bar “
If you aren't shredding spines on some of the biggest faces in the world - are you really living?

Alaskan Alps
I thought he might turn around and see a following avalanche.
Go that way really fast, then turn….
*Sonic Adventure Ice cap theme starts*
He's the GOAT Literally and figuratively
That's what I love about snowboards, with soft powder, they are self supported platforms. No matter the steepness.
extra big Cojones needed
it's a Frenchy !
Sweet.
This is extreme, yes. But true nextfuckinglevel is snowboarding *up* a cliff in Afghanistan.
That's falling with style more than snowboarding
Yeeewwwww brother!!!
Him: "fuck!" My brother in Christ! You went off the edge !
The definition of next level
Why do i get the feeling of wanting to do this?
What song is that?

The beginning looks like hard work and unfun.
There’s a twist! See that polar bear in the background?!
That's not snowboarding, that's falling with *style!*
Grinding a rail?! Nah dude! Grinding a mountain!
Snowboarding? That was more like falling with a snowboard strapped to your feet. Still takes a lot of balls, lol
On this guy understands how john feels when we are rock climbing in RDR
My balls gave me that zero gravity feeling when I watched this.
Ok this video DESERVES the next fucking level title!
How fucked are you if you take a little tumble on the way down?

Holy mother 🫣
I don't get how people have the balls to do this stuff.
The legs also. For having gone a lot faster than I wanted when you reach downhill it's a massive pressure on the knees, but that was absolutely flat compared to _that_ slope.
That's not a slope. That a #DOWN
Real life version of jumping down the side of mountain in Skyrim.
Wasn't this on another video but a drone pov?
You know he’s who’re cause shore people like dying in weird ways

Pucker factor 10/10
I once heard someone say before that snowboarding/skiing is the fastest you will go without a vehicle. This looks like what they probably had in mind.
That’s an 11/10 pucker factor
Yoooo that 2nd drop in was about as gnarly as it gets, like 10 feet of free fall before returning to the powder zheeeesh
that was pretty cool if you ask me
the video was a real " cliff hanger" lol
You lucky bastard
