Shmee150 goes Skiing in Verbier, Switzerland

[OJMayoTheNextOne]

Hi! I have a question, with how many cm shorter than your hight should be a freestyle ski?

Thanks!

[MrMicWitt]

You could have done so much more with this material. More editing, maybe some music. Check out my video. It iwas also captured in Verbier with a GoPro and an iPhone. Panorama sunset timelapses, superslowmotion in the same funpark and some music.  Go check out my channel :)

[itacome]

3:05 overbuttered skis haha^^

[themoviemakers65]

thx this video really helped me get the idea of switzerland ... im going on a school trip for a week

[UnluckyFriedCat]

Those complete beginners did a good job!

[LongboardLord17]

Les mountains sont tres beau

[TheCastleMountain]

what kind of skis

[Shmee150]

@TheCastleMountain Armada AR7s in this

[timochey]

Thats beautiful, so much powder. Australia's snow is pretty horrible :(

[TheNoodlejuice]

From Geneva, used to ski here a lot Good Video

[oxfordbiker]

Thank you for not putting any music on it!

[Taz1451]

When I went skiing I just liked the speed and on the more or less flat gradients I'd just go flat out for speed and hot everyone.. But I was too fast and nobody could shout at me. When I went on the steep routes though I'd do parallel turning and all was good. :)

[SuperCarsSpotter]

3:15 . Nice RPG on your sleeve. Haha!

[bamboali]

skiing, thz something new from you :o, not bad at all :D

[MegaDadaClub]

i know my memories there crashed in a english ski driver

(i drive snowboard :D )

[lilbeebz]

no dude . thank you for making his awesome video :D

[ScuderiaJabardos]

Great video! What camera did u use? Awsome quality !!

[Shmee150]

@ScuderiaJabardos It's all in the video description; cheers.

[jbenson9193]

Lol @ 3:15 :P Looks slow motion lol.

[Shmee150]

@jbenson9193 It is, half speed ;)

[onegrayleaf]

im canadian and i cant touch you for skiing

[car6maniac]

I love your trousers! I snowboard at a national level so I know how to ski and some of the off pieces and mogels you were doing were impressive! Camera-work is, as per usual, excellent and you are your friends seem fairly well acquainted with the art of skiing! :D

[Shmee150]

@car6maniac Hehe, awesome! I'm a BASI Level 2 instructor with 3 seasons under my belt, likewise my friend in the light green. What sort of thing do you do? Freestyle or boardercross or something else?

[car6maniac]

@Shmee150 Ahh, Instructor? Do you actually take classes or working your way up? The resort you went to looked pretty decent, some particularly sharp declines! Never been to Verbier myself, I've snowboarded in Fernie and Vancouver in Canada, Ruka and Ylass in Finland and some more exciting courses through the Alps:) Speciality is freestyle half pipes although there isn't much opportunity to do that so mainly just standard racing slalom:) Do you ski often?

[Shmee150]

@car6maniac You always take classes! Even the serious pros need to take lessons. I wasn't too keen on Verbier, my favourite place to ski is Val d'Isere in France. I used to ski for about 20 weeks a year or more for a while, but now only 2 or 3 weeks unfortunately as I have a full time job in London. My preferred skiing is freeride; anything big and steep!

[XXLVenom999]

Haha, very nice skiing, mate! good tricks! XD

[passingbynight]

Wee! That looks fun! I should be able to go for my first skiing attempt sometime in a couple of months.

[Shmee150]

@passingbynight Definitely do it; skiing is such great fun!

[VivaLaNick335]

verbier is pronounced verbiyay right?

[Shmee150]

@VivaLaNick335 Yes pretty much, like Verb-E-A.

[RogueNL]

Oh yeah, I don't think anyone minds you uploading non-automotive videos. All your videos have such a cool atmosphere, I think even you filming yourself taking a dump would get 10k views. :-D

I'm not a skiing type of person, but this looked pretty enjoyable. :-)

[marchettino]

I'm not skiing since over 12 years.. i miss it so much!

[jersthecool]

Damn awesome vid I want to go to europe so bad!

[bettes]

Don't worry about the video not containing automotive content. As long as you bring it in HD, and it has that cool "atmosphere" that most of your videos have, I'll watch anything you upload !

[Shmee150]

@bettes Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it!

[sam28295]

Cool video, looks like you had tons of fun

[WargamRecord]

Nice video :)

It was great no ? ^^

With my parents I'll go to skiing in February and this station looks nice, I'll say them to go in :D

[Shmee150]

@WargamRecord A great trip yes, I'm sure you'll have fun when you go too!

[WargamRecord]

@Shmee150 Okey thank you ;)

[Petrolheadish]

Awesome video! :D

[walooodey]

TY for the video , it actually made my day . can't wait for ur next video .

my regards

[Shmee150]

@walooodey Thanks for your feedback, glad you enjoyed it!

[SuperCarsFullHD]

You're good at skiing!!! I was going 90 km/h (55-60 mp/h according to my iPhone) I'm now considering to buy a GoPro :D

[Shmee150]

@SuperCarsFullHD I used to work as a ski instructor so got the hang of it quite a bit ;) Regarding the GoPro, I would definitely recommend them; the footage is absolutely amazing and they are so easy to use; and not too expensive either!

[Blosterblu]

I WANT THE GOPRO!!

SBAVVVVVV

[Shmee150]

@Blosterblu Thoroughly recommend it. I have two now so that I can get even more shots with it!

[snowlover71]

Aw I wish i was there right now. And personally, i wanna see more.

[AutoSpotterDaan]

This vid was so nice! i also like skiing very much but you are ALOT better then me :p

[Shmee150]

@AutoSpotterDaan Hehe; I used to work as a ski instructor so got the hang of it ;)

[mendesdiogo]

You should've added some cool music

[Shmee150]

@mendesdiogo It is a problem being a YouTube Partner that the only music you can add is Royalty Free which tends not to be the best songs; you can't legally upload a video with a real song in it. I also quite like the effect of hearing what there was at the time it was recorded.

[A8C100]

Fantasric Video!! but how do you fix the camera on your helmet??? you paste it with a adhesive holder??

[Shmee150]

@A8C100 Exactly; the GoPro cameras come with a serious of adhesive attachments that allow you to snap the camera on and off. So myself and my friends all have the mounts on our helmets and can just pass cameras around - easy!

[kevinmosleyI]

Looks like fun! Don't hesitate to post vids like this again!

[CarSpotterQVS]

3:05 hahaha -- Very good!

[GreatUnboxer]

Lol, 2:33 I was like wtf he got skills xD

[Shmee150]

@GreatUnboxer Frontflip with helmet cam; awesome in my opinion :D

[MrPorschefanatic]

nice video ! like it :) 

[Michael322222]

great video and youre lucky with great weather :) in next video put the skis on your aston :D

[Shmee150]

@Michael322222 I did transport some skis inside the passenger side of the car before going to the Alps; next time maybe I'll do something funky with them!

[SpotterGijs]

Love the first person footage with the HD Go Pro! Vid is something completely different, but I like it! Wintersports are so cool!

[Shmee150]

@SpotterGijs Cheers, me too; it works so fantastically for sports like this as well as the car videos.

[FredrikssonAdam]

i love when you aint have music on your videos :D

[Shmee150]

@FredrikssonAdam Thanks; I think a lot of people do as you hear the actual sounds of the time; especially with car videos.

[PrinzP9]

great vid...you have awesome ski skills...but i will stay on my snowboard :-)

[SuperAppMaster]

i am from switzerland thats where my video came from XD

[AndreyPurtov]

Сool ! Is it was an subway in the Geneve (on the beginning of video )?

[Shmee150]

@AndreyPurtov It was actually at Zurich; I was supposed to be going to Davos so flew to Zurich, but a late change meant we then went over to Verbier to ski.

[TheCarMaster2009]

like that, i also do twintip skiing.

it´s definetly fun!

[rjtdbf]

That looks awesome dude! Thanks for uploading! I love skiing!!

[F14BigAl]

Cool shots with the GoPro. I remember a Top Gear episode where they raced a Ferrari 612 to Verbier, you could even do that next time, race your friends in your car, whether you film it or not.

[Shmee150]

@F14BigAl Interesting idea; well I'll certainly be taking the V8V around the mountains a bit this summer; maybe persuade some friends to do a similar thing.

[SpamWich722]

Nice. looked fun :)

[giovane1991]

wow, I love skiing too! it's such an amazing thnig :D so bad that this year I didn't have the opportunity to do that..

[saschacolin]

nice video, look like you were having a lot of fun :D

[FoundWitness]

couldve asked me to look after your amv8v LOL

[Shmee150]

@FoundWitness Hehe sneaky! Just had my first drive in it after getting back; forgot how much fun it was!

[LittleWing1127]

look at that powda

[GreenOatmeal]

I've never been skiing. But, it looks like so much fun! By the way, your pants are sick. ;)

[Shmee150]

@GreenOatmeal It is absolutely fantastic; I'd thoroughly recommend giving it a go if you ever get the opportunity.

[GreenOatmeal]

@Shmee150 I definately will. The view is stunning and the sport itself seems relaxing.

[alexander1485]

love your pink and blue pants

[Shmee150]

@alexander1485 Hehe cheers; I think they are quite Marmite; love them or hate them!

[ghettocodmaster555]

looks like you had some fun haha...I like skiing...but not on mountains like that lol

[PantherFan1582]

that looks amazing

[lolsandgaggels]

You should make a vlog channel liek upload every other day your life looks interesting

[PacificStormm]

I really liked this video; it's refreshing change from all the cars. And I liked the Rogue Status Snowboarding Jacket also ;) Pretty sick

[Shmee150]

@PacificStormm Haha cheers, glad you enjoyed it.

[SummerTheFuzzy]

Great vid, ski holidays with mates are the best ! I was at that same train thing at zurich airport last week ! They play cow noises on it dont they lol

[Shmee150]

@SummerTheFuzzy They do indeed; it is incredibly random!

[seomoz]

by plane or car?

[Shmee150]

@seomoz Flew for this trip I'm afraid, too much snow around in mid winter, but hopefully some videos of drives in the mountains will come nearer summer!

[seomoz]

@Shmee150 tell me when you're here. would love to take some pictures of that car!

[martelodp]

1:19 beatifull :D

[blackhole522]

Lots of fun.

[BlexTrex]

You do it like a pro

[Shmee150]

@BlexTrex Hehe cheers, I used to be a ski instructor, so I guess technically I am a pro ;)

[M5IAN]

Wow that looks like a lot of fun !

[CleverDjembe]

Since you're in Switzerland you must buy a high quality Swiss-made watch to go with your new ride!

[Shmee150]

@CleverDjembe Hehe thanks for watching, I do already have one though ;)

[pr3par32die]

cool, dude! i looove skiing! i went a couple weeks ago and had a blast. cant wait till your next video! i love them

[Shmee150]

@pr3par32die Thanks, brilliant, it's great isn't it! Where did you go? Next video will be back on cars!

[pr3par32die]

@Shmee150 youre welcome, and yes! well, i live in illinois, but i went to this place called alpine valley in wisconsin. it was really cool! thats awesome, and i cant wait! keep the awesome videos comin! (:

[ChannelcarZF]

Nice ski skills man! I also can ski and snowboard but not so good as you ;). Nice one Tim!

[tylerwalker2]

u shud have drove the beast there man people wouldnt leave that thing alone :D

[Shmee150]

@tylerwalker2 It was certainly tempting; alas the Subaru Outback had to do in this instance

[MrSeanrlegend]

what type of camera do you use?

[Shmee150]

@MrSeanrlegend The body mounted camera is a GoPro HD, the other shots are from a Sony CX520. Thanks for watching.

[MARIONDA13]

Should've pull up in your Aston, and itll look like you where a celebrity

[Shmee150]

@MARIONDA13 Hehe, I thought about it, but with the snow it wouldn't have been wise so went in a Subaru Outback instead. For my next trip to the mountains in March I might think about taking the Aston ;)

[LaunchedHamza]

You have some of the best looking videos ive seen on youtube, keep up the good work mate :)

[GarechtExotics]

Damn that looks like fun, some steep hills there! So, can you teach me how to ski? haha lol

[RB4Lcallarida777]

Not the kind of videos i expect from you but i love it !

[Shmee150]

@RB4Lcallarida777 Cheers, thanks for watching!
