I haven't seen every single movie in the last few years, but no one even seems to shoot there anymore.

Also, I can't be alone in actually wanting to know how the hell you get to chads gap. Maybe inside all the dumb crap people are bout to post someone will just give some damn directions.

It is really a shame if we can't even talk about the damn mound anymore because of the meme.

That would be ridiculous, that being said bet you could find someone from rampage that would at least toy with the idea.

RubberSoulpollard tried in 2004..or whatever year wski106 was filmed, i forget


Didn't work so well though.(major props for even thinking of it) Imagine someone actually land it, in my book that's more insane than any other trick done so far.

from an old thread:

"Pollard hit Chads gap in 2004... he did drive all night from oregon, no sleep, hiked up, tried a 180 with the last light of the day, and broke himself off something proper. Same session that tanner did corked 7 mute over it."

and the clip is at 9:31 in this (wski 106) (no promises the embed works, for some reason im not consistent at the new embedding):

I heard that the ski patrol was actully just fending off wild packs of ravenous wolves that have seeked refuge in the landing and that's why no one films there anymore
