When you hear it from a legend like Abma, you know its true, that “Nikolai you’re an animal, buddy”❤”Wow dude, you’re crazy “🎉

Honestly, having watched both cuts, theres something so much more powerful about having the entire story unfold. What makes your films so special is how much more surrounds each line. Thank you for continuing to create immaculate, narrative driven, ski films.

Watching legendary skiers ski the runs you fly down is crazy. Incredible, skillfull dudes methodically getting through what you had just STRAIGHTLINED?!? You're a madman. Incredible vid as always.

To be fair Nikolai have ridder the line several times before while for Abma it was a first . Also , Abma well up in his 40's regardless of is fitness has to be a bit more conservative to avoid injuries. What one would Just brush of in the 30's could easily be a month on the couch in the 40's 😅

I realised one little thing that makes your videos so enjoyable: you show the approach and the discussion you're having with your partner extensively and it help grasping the surrounding, the conditions, the mindset to offert a full experience like we were there with you.

a quick, slightly overly sentimental comment i have come to after seeing this video: i remember seeing you ski with abma in 2018, during schirmer in the field. i found those videos when i became obsessed with skiing around 13 apart from going once or twice a year with my family to spending every waking moment thinking about it. as well as many others, your videos especially helped me find what has become one of my favourite things in the world. a lot has changed over the time since then but i still love and regularly watch your videos as well as ski a lot more. keep putting out the great stuff and i can't wait to still be watching your videos in another 5 years; you are a true inspiration. thanks

Niko going full Amundsen while everyone else is swearing by sleds - pretty freaking awesome. (also a good illustration of what sled dogs were bred for and why they don't make for good apartment pets)
@fr3d80000 6 ай бұрын
woof watching abma ski it was good contrast. Having enough time for us to see that the choke is like 4 boots wide. Niko is an animal.
@user-hu2st2du1q 6 ай бұрын
So much love for Mark Abma! His smooth, pillow-popping style is iconic and he always seems to have a great attitude in the mountains...Awesome to see you guys partner up. Niko your couloir prowess is nutty!
@imcontemptwithlife4155 6 ай бұрын
I skid this chute about a week ago, I imagine about the same time you were there unless your edits take more time! Absolutely great chute, I took the first half a lot like your buddy there Nikolai but after the chute I straight bombed it like you! I was on my own though, the snow wasn’t as skiable 😜 Great to see 2 completely different styles of skiers taking the chute!
