I don't think that was close to death, still harsh though.

HOLY CHANEL GAP.

That was freaking intense. At first it looks like he's gonna make it no prob and then BAM! The crazy thing is it looks like he popped back up onto his feet and rode away. Gnar.

hope it dosnt happen to a skier. If that was a skier, his skis would have ejected and he would have landed on his feet and broken his ankles. As funny as it would be, I dont want to see anyone screeming my ankles are broken during the slopestyle

uh, i beg to differ. channel gaps are super fucking sick, but they do have their consequences (hell, I've hit the wall of a channel gap before and got fucked up).

The big problem with this one is that the scale is all fucked up considering there is a jump practically in the landing, making speed and angle a real mind fuck, and thus more dangerous than it would be otherwise.
