Usually I'm not a big fan of the olympics but I saw Beijing hosting summer Olympics, the opening was epic man

let us hope that the weather will be good during the olympics. no one wants a -35 to -50 temperature for 3 weeks like we had here up to a week ago. love from canada.

Nice vlog indeed! I love Nico's reaction with Jack's reason on choosing the color of his helmet! 😆

Fun editing. Lots of British humor, hahaha!

Wow..this looks really Fun. always enjoy watching your videos. Very well shot and edited. Love from fellow KZfaqrs from China.😊

Another great video made by Jack and Nico! 👏 Loving the new style! I had fun and thumbs up to your consistent and high quality videos/contents! 😊

It is the first time I know in China there is so nice place to ski. I think the next month Olympic game will booster this sport even more. Great job Nico and very appreciated the video you made for us.

haha I love how seriously Jack took his assignment! ;D

👍👍👍 Great interesting vlog. Thanks. Blessings from Kuching, Malaysia

Thanks for the timely video! We’ve been thinking about going to Nanshan for a long time but still haven’t managed to go there. This had good information 😊👍

Love the back and forth😆

Well, there's biracial American girl who changes her citizenship to Chinese for this Winter Olympic, her name is Eileen Gu. If she wins some medals, surly will promote winter sports in China.

British Vloggers about China are outstanding and you guys are head of the pack...

I like the different video style. Vlogging parts make the video more lively 😉 Btw, background light in the room is great👍😀

have fun !

very entertaining... thx guys for the leisure coverage of the forthcoming winter Olympics

👍👍👍

i love olympics and i love beijing...!¡!

Nice. Although it's very cold in North China but most places are very dry during winter except for the Northeast provinces of Helongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning, northern inner Mongolia. The northern part of xinjiang also receives heavy snowfall. Due to its dry conditions in north china there's little snow. Snowfall is more abundant in south China on high elevation than north china. This is due to moisture that flows in from the south. That's why there're nice ski resorts in south China with abundant natural snowfall such as in Xiling, Shennojia, etc

I just discovered you, and you easily captured me as a new subscriber. Entertaining. Informative. I like the pace of your videos. A very talented team producing with you, I’m imagining.

nico,等我忙完冬奥会，请你吃饭啊！😁

If you prefer to ski on natural powder snow in China, you'd have to go to Altay region in northern Xinjiang and around the Hinggan mountains area in Heilongjiang.

That is awesome!

Oh yea

I miss skiing so much. The last time was before C19. 😢

Thumbs up

cool,cool,good topic!!

I recognised Wanlong ski resort in your video; I worked there for 3 seasons, close to my heart❤

Thanks for the video. Your videos are getting better and better. Very professional quality.

Sort of clickbaity. It was actually two British (or European) expats' ski adventure in China.

Interesting

Beijing snow is not as good as Alpine snow, but the bitter cold of the Gobi desert wind will slice your unprotected face.

From UK I did try to ski in China once but went to Niseko Japan instead because it wasn't cost effective for me then. For an overseas skier to come the resorts need to be adequately developed, snow sure and good transportation to get in and out. That was about 10 years ago. Based on my knowledge after skiing 14 countries and visited 140+ skiing resorts I would say Chinese skiing industry is possibly in its "infant stage". This isn't a criticism but just a passing comment. I believe until China has the infrastructure, facilities, accommodations, terrain and catering suitable to attract international skiers/boarders it will remain as for local consumption type industry. The international big boys are France with say 3 Valley having 600+ piste fully linked by 200+ chairlift. Mighty Dolomites Superski is comprised by 12 resorts with 1,200km. Even Dolomites isn't fully link but its Sella Ronda is. Having 425km piste and 194 chairlifts it is known to the skiing world for its largest skiing loop in the world taking a whole day to pass through for the average skiers, clockwise or anticlockwise. There are super size domain like Porte de Soleil (650km), Ski Amade (760km), Ski Welt (288km), Paradise Ski (435km) and Espace Killy (300km), Milky Way(400km) where for a single ski pass one can enjoy a huge amount of skiing opportunities over a wide area. Switzerland for example has St Moritz hosting winter Olympic twice first one in 1928. Thus premium resorts like Swiss Zermatt,, French Courcheval, Italian Contina D'Ampezzo, Austrian St Anton/Lech and America Aspen are skiing resorts with luxury. Zermatt for example has runs where skiers/boarders can arrive the top of the chairlift by sitting face to face chatting as a large group riding on an air-condition train! One can sit on a chairlift blown miserably by snow, rain, cold and wind or inside a chairlift fitted with a weather bubble and with heated seats. For toilet facilities I had peed on urinals on side side overlooking by a female queue for their cubicle inside the same container in France and found the meeting area for toilet more luxurious as a 4-star hotel lobby with circular sitting sofa in Austria. Skiing industry can also be different in each country. France is likely a close model for China as its mega-size resorts are catered for seasonal once-a-year sudden influx in gigantic number. Thus many accommodations are arranged in large compartment blocks virtually empty for the rest of the year. Austria and Switzerland skiing resorts are much smaller and integrated with the local communities because their skiing is mostly for recreation during each weekend. In winter they go skiing and in summer for hiking using the same facility. Italy lies somewhere in between but retain the Alpine community charm. The America resorts are not that well organised. Up market resorts, favoured by movie stars and celebrities, could be built as a feature to attract buyers of the expensive real estate there. Resorts like Vail and Beaver Creek can have its own local radio broadcasting property details to visitors and some skiing runs are on private land virtual in the back gardens of the local properties. China will have a big skiing/boarding population in the near future so there will be a big demand for accommodations, hotels and restaurants. Location of suitable resorts is going to be a challenge. Although China has cold places in the North East it lacks altitude so the number of resorts there will be unlikely large or major. Where it has altitude, like in Tibet and Xinjiang the access can be time consuming but there is a considerable scope for development in the western provinces once the local population starts to do winter sport. The trick is to offer attractive packages for visitors from at least other provinces if not from overseas. There are literally thousands of mountains in China with snow nearly all year round but they are in the wrong places far away from civilisation. However with airports, HSR and fast local transport there is an exciting skiing industry to be develop in China.

Why Nico did not go skiing?

i tried once before, I busted my asx. haha

OMG, so many workers were forced to work , LOL

沙发

0:50 anyone know what the name of this resort is?

Réaction video yyds

中国最好的雪场在新疆阿勒泰

Chinese are lazy to travel further for snow ! The women prefer shopping……hahhahaha…. I find skiing very slippery ! Hahaha

Just putting this out there, hopefully I'm wrong, but... Sun Tzu Quote: “The opportunity to secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.” Therefore; I believe the CCP may take the worlds athletes hostage at the winter games, (its already a fully fenced secure compound) in exchange of a peaceful hand over of Taiwan or at least allows CCP to attack Taiwan without outside support for Taiwan.
