Where were you skiing? Us easterners are heading to Alta this year. In fact, UT for the first time. I'm booking in advance to save. What month/weeks would you recommend for the best snow? (I don't care about anything else!) THANKS!
@billskis This footage was shot in several locations over a 4-day period. Sorry, but I swore to secrecy. In terms of good times for snow, early January and the first week of February have always been great for me. You'll love Little Cottonwood. Amazing terrain. I hope you get some great snow!
Guys, this is one of the best vids out there; it captures what the average Joe Schmoe can do out there. It pretty much mapped the way I ski and what I saw. Nice job!
@THEBURDE interesting, so you rate a mid width like the old salomon 1080 for powder. I was thinking that, wanting to get some fat skis but was concerned I wouldn't go so deep.
alpha blondy music too a ski vid. right on! snow look's great, wasatch's best. It's September 09 now it's almost time for snow. Let's hope we have another 600+ inch year again.
I loved watching these powder clips. Nice camera work and use of zoom in/out. What vid camera were you using?

@billskis Right on, thanks, Bill. We had some amazing conditions and some great skiers to rip it up with. Hope we get pounded this winter.

@atraherne The fat skis are fun to float and bounce around in the powder, but half of the fun was to sink in.

@THEBURDE Yeah I hear you man, I think are stick to my mid widths. Thanks!

What is that fantastic Reggae track? I want that on my ipod when I'm skiing the deep
christophlamipie 2 years ago
The track is Jah Houphet by Alpha Blondy from the album Apartheid is Nazism. A must-have for powder-skiing tunes - especially in the Wasatch.

Fantastic! I'll be downloading it NOW as there have been powder alerts going off all week in Europe
Peace, love and happiness!

You're a star for the information, thanks, but I'm sad to report that iTunes (Europe I'm guessing) don't have this on their site. Can you believe it?!
Major bummer. I'mm just have to find (er-hum) "another way of finding it"
Please, love and happiness!

Right on. Thanks, polish. Great reggae seems to go very well with deep powder. These four days were epic! Thanks for the comment.
