Here is a new edit from Brady Newton. For a guy that only gets to ski on Saturdays (and every other Friday) he is getting the job done! Great job Brady! Brady and I recently started night touring. Last week we hit up pink pine chute at 8:30 PM. Luckily Brady's headlamp is so bright (900 Lumens), because the snow was deep, the chutes were steep, and the trees would have hurt had we not been able to see them! Watch for a review of the Faction 13's (as seen in this video) from Brady soon! 1 Comment Currently Editing 05/08/2010
I didn't stay as organized as I wanted to this winter so I am in the middle of compiling footage before making an edit. I will post some pictures below to hold you through until then. Watch for another installment of Brady's Helmet Adventures to drop here tomorrow as well as an edit from skijosh.com next week!

The mountain weather has changed a lot in the last week. From February 25th through March 6th we have had quite a bit of snow roll into the Wasatch Mountains. I have some great helmet camera footage that I am going to post as soon as I run through all of it, but in the meantime, here are some pictures from this last week! These first few pictures are from a pillow that Jeff and I found in LCC. It got pretty much demolished.

It is a screenshot of a video from my GoPro. This chute is called death chute. The cliff on the entrance has some sketchy teeth on it. After landing below this drop, I ended up clipping my ski on the rock on the right side of this photo, whch sent me into a double tomahawk. My skis didn't come off and I was able to ski out of it, but it was somewhat scary for sure. Video from this will be in my next update.  Death Chute Entrance -skijosh.com Opening Weekend 11/21/2009
Snowbird and Park City turned on their lifts for the first time this season. Jeff Christensen, Sean Smith, and I rode Snowbird all morning on Friday. With only one run and one real lift open, it left a lot to be desired. The snow conditions were not great, but being on skis with operating lifts was awesome. Fox 13 decided to roll up, and I happened to be put on the news, check it out. On Saturday Trevor Evans (Clandestino Films) and I rode Park City almost all day. The new terrain park manager Jeremy Cooper is doing a great job already. 2 20-foot jumps, 3 street rails, and 5 other jibs on opening day is almost unprecedented here in Utah. If this is an indicator of things to come this season, it is time to get stoked! Sorry for the lack of pictures from today, the park was so crowded and the sky was overcast, so shooting video/pictures was somewhat pointless. Keep your eyes open for something better as we get closer to Thanksgiving. |   |
