Once my brother becomes a Millionaire, most likely he'd want to buy a Condo and I'd live somewhere in a ski resort for a while with a part time job and being able to ski with him whenever he goes! Just to look out for safety! He's starting a gambling business!!🤗

Cameras never convey the true sense of how steep something is. Standing at the edge waiting to drop into to that must have terrifying. The screaming afterwards was definitely appropriate 👍

I don't see why people feel the need to try to bring you down. I've never been on skis in my life and have no idea how difficult what you did was, but your level of enthusiasm and your joy on getting it done is just a nice thing to see. Well done!

@thisisgettingold 2 жыл бұрын

It's not bringing anyone down to state that this was a 30 foot blue run that everyone I know including small kids can ski. It would be like getting super stoked over learning how to front flip on a trampoline. It's not rude, it's just honest to state this was a really mild chute the guy is over hyped about. I'm happy he's happy but this run doesn't even come close to comparing to some of the terrain to be found out there. It's okay for people to be subjective. Chill.

@@thisisgettingold bruh your a fricking idiot. That is not a blue run. That is a over 45 degree chute that is probably around 9 ft wide AT MOST. sure its only 30 ft long, but if you hit any side, you're immediately dead. you've obviously never skied in your life if you're going to compare this to learning to flip on a trampoline.

For the naysayers in the comments: Once Is Enough looks completely different in-person than it does in any video I have ever seen. It's probably the easiest 'extremely serious, if you blow it there are serious consequences' line at Kirkwood - but think for one second about what that statement means. The drop-in is approx. 90-degrees for 10 vertical feet, then 50-60 degrees for a long way, with no possibility of making turns to slow down. When the chute opens up enough to allow room for turning, you are going 50+ mph (I clocked it with my phone's accelerometer). The line is wider than typical in this video due to a bigger snow year, but it's still a dangerous line with serious injury potential if you blow it early (or late - tumbling on the flat going 50+ mph would be bad too). It gets done quite a bit every season, but it also breaks a few bones each season.

Hahaha.... I remember this chute at Kirkwood. The first time for me four snowboarders went ahead and butt slid and plowed the chute polished smooth, with all the loose snow dumped out after the chute opens. No soft snow. Only ice. Only option left was the one you took.... line it up, scream, take the drop, know you're going to haul ass, and follow the bends before the rocks take off your face. Once in its steeper, narrower and longer than you want to believe.... and the rocks are larger by 3x and planted in your face. Thanks for sharing the memories.

What makes Once Is Enough hard is the fact that ski patrol bombs it.. so all the good snow is usually gone...and unless you are one of the first through it. It's a bobsled track... you come hauling ass out of that thing into a huge line of traverses coming off the Wall LOL. That is almost sketchier than the drop.
