Last year you knew you were extreme if you had a helicopter filming the helicopter that was filming you skiing.

This year the bar is no less than 4 GoPro's on your body.

Man, it's really easy to hide some extreme hot-tubbing when you've got a ton of little cameras to cut between...

really? i mean what did you expect? if a vid has Jamie Pierre in it its gonna have some cool lines, a very, oversized cliff, and hip first landings...just goes with the territory.

being surprised at Jamie pierre hot tubbing a cliff is like being shocked that Thall's new outerwear is rasta themed. Thats their schtick.

Landing on your side and getting up to make it look like you landed it.

you know how you sit in a hot tub, leaned back, legs kinda floating, all relaxed and ass lower than everything else?


ya, thats the same position you go into on landing a big ol cliff into powder. its basically like jumping into a hot tub...no intention of stomping.

when you leave a bomb hole big enough for you and five friends. Your momentum stops, whether by hip checking or not, and you have to climb out of the fucker to keep skiing.

Why not just go off a cliff you can stomp? The feeling of riding out is nicer than digging your way out of a bombhole

See that's bullshit to me. Pierre landed on his fucking head. That alone disqualifies his attempt in my mind. He came no where close to sticking it and is extremely lucky he can still ride.

Fred (dude who accidentally sent it off a far bigger cliff) came away in the same condition and seems to have landed a lot cleaner than Pierre.

Neither stomped it but Fred was closer.

see that's what i'm sayin, he doesn't even aim for his feet, he kicks them out and goes for his head. a hip check you can bounce out of and keep riding... he straight up flops. it's his choice and he obviously deserves some props for going obscenely large but...

i've dug myself plenty of hot tubs too but i just think one oughtta go into the take off with the aim of riding out....

It's really easy to armchair QB it and say he should have tried to land on his feet off that cliff.  Some cliffs require hot tubbing or your ankles will be in your knees...that's one of them.  It's a specialized skiing technique for a specific situation.  You can't compare this 70 footer to a maximum 30 degree slope to stompable 70 footers in Alaska with steep landings.

This is exactly right. If you look at the landings on the Pierre world record or on any of the shit that Julian Carr does, trying to stick it to your feet could be potentially very bad. Also, Pierre has been doing this kind of stuff for a long time and in order to have a lengthy career in his line of work it helps to not go knee to face on a flattish landing at those speeds.

man this video represents that he has no skill at all... sad. what a 50-60ft. cliff to your side with no attempt at all to land? nice job. go ski for real so we can enjoy it, like you used to do. and for the people defending him, you're idiots because that means you don't know what lawn darting is, or what hero snow is. with that said, props to him for sending massive cliffs but keep in mind that a huck doll could do the same job, but steezier.

you are very dumb/ignorant. pierre is a great skier. Do skiers with no skill hit chads gap? plus he is getting really really old so maybe landing on his feet will hurt him easier. just shut up sometimes.

you're probably homies with him but i still stand by my opinion. and do skiers with no skill hit chads? well yeah i bet people have, but to LAND chads, it takes a lot of skill. anyone can fall whether its off a cliff or a jump. it's not impressive.

if he tried to land on his feet, he would have shattered aver bone in his body. you CAN NOT ski out of a 255ft cliff drop - no questions asked, it cannot be done. Pierre landed perfectly for a drop that big.

well yeah, he's just saying it shouldn't count as the record. the biggest cliff ever rode away on your feet should be the world record.

Pretty much. If it's a record for biggest cliff skied off without dying, Fred wins easily. What does it matter if he didn't mean to do it, he still did it and came out just as cleanly as Pierre.

thanks for raping the n00b, btw.
