Kootenay Influence Ep.5 January 17th by Dylan Siggers

[Raidneyami6]

Damn I wish there were even 1 tiny patch of powder like this in WA State...here, my dad and I snicker at people who call "powder" what he and I call "Cascade cement".

This is true powder.

I RIDE FOR WILL

[koolioski]

@lmi366 the camera is mounted on the pole. its called a gopro pole mount, not that hard to do..just buy a gopro, then a pole, then the pole mount.

[OrganicHealer]

now that's what i call powder

[divinefart]

i lived here from 2000-2008, best years of my life so far... kootaneys FTW!!!

[MrPonceWindu]

In Soviet Russia, Man kills avalanche

[allahbob]

Real men don't use ski trails.

[EmoCookieBambi]

Skiing with one pole, LIKE A BOSS.

[Renneskid]

why only one pole?

[2007TypeR]

@Renneskid It's obvious that his camera is strapped to the end of one pole. That is why he is skiing with one pole for some of the movie.

[Imi366]

@2007TypeR Haha I would think there's a snowmobile that his ski pole is attached to. There is no way you can keep a ski pole that steady. Plus you notice the fixed position of the ski pole and him skiing around it.

[2007TypeR]

@Imi366 Look at 0:23 and freeze fame, he throws his pole in the air.

The reason why the pole is fixed position is because the camera is STRAPPED to the pole. So the pole will always be in the same position in the shot. That is why he appears to move around the pole.

[adminoperator]

@Imi366 how stupid are you.. judging from your comment, you have no sense of self position in a 3-dimension area..

Go to school.. smh..

[BonoboUK]

I'm currently in Les Arcs spending a very painful week learning how to snowboard - I hate you and I hate your skill.

[xStealthClown]

@BonoboUK Skiing is way easier though, I've tried both.

[some1rational]

did you film this by yourself with one arm+pole extended while you're skiing???

[calvin2032]

@some1rational Pretty much. You don't even have to hold your arm out. It's hard to tell, but he is actually moving is hand forward and back, just like he would be if reaching for his pole plant normally. People think it takes a lot of concentration, but it is pretty easy. I've got a video from that perspective on the same day, but nowhere near as well done as Dylan's here.

[some1rational]

@calvin2032 ahh i see i see thx, yeah I was under the impression that it was really hard...haven't skiid or snowboarded in forever

[time654]

Where is this?

[FernieSkier]

@time654 Fernie Alpine Resort, British Columbia, Canada!

[time654]

@FernieSkier That is so sick! I've always wanted to make it out to Fernie but I've only ever made it as far as Revelstoke coming from the west coast

[calvin2032]

@time654 I'm wanting to hit up Revy so bad this year. "Winter" here in Fernie was nonexistent until a week and a half ago, but La Nina is finally back!

[FernieSkier]

Long live the GRIZ!

[papham]

nice vid. do again in 720p+ please

[calvin2032]

@papham It's not letting me post the link, but search for "Kootenay Influence Ep. 5" on Vimeo. Or just search for Dylan Siggers. He has a lot of good videos.

[michaelware]

that was insane! I love watching the snow blow up over the shoulders and covering your face for long stretches at a time. wicked.

[nixonatorator]

I hear having a preference of getting down the mountain really affects how much fun you have.

[ReductioAdAbsurdum]

Powder like that is what snowboards were *invented* for, man.

[karachinights]

awesome vid man

[8w9hf89hw]

Don't hit your dick on a stick.

[TurdFergisson]

Still and clear! Still snowing and clear up to your ass.

[stockyboard]

Make sure you push storm down to Wyoming !

[TJBoast]

Thats BEAUTIFUL.



[muggadj]
