LampardThe AK segment was burly.
That being said, I cringed the entire time I watched that. Face after face, completely propagating outward and setting off these huge slides.. A shot of one or two is reasonable, but I seriously think there were only 1-2 shots of someone riding a line that didn't fucking slide in that segment. In terms of setting a good example, he couldn't have done a worse job.
When kids watch this movie, seeing that will definitely rub off upon their decision making process, and with backcountry skiing growing in popularity more than ever before, I'm disappointed to see someone as widely renowned as Tanner including a segment along those lines. Yes, we get it, you're the Ski Boss and can outrun a slide, but the average skier would probably not be able to react the same way to an occurrence like that. In terms of avalanche terrain, assessing snow conditions is so important.. And not only that, they just keep flying up and riding shit on the same aspect.
People look up to you Tanner. But in the regards of avalanche safety, you need to set a better example.
californiagrownLol. You want thall to be a role model. Lemme guess, you also rag on pros for not always wearing a helmet... amiright?
If people are dumb enough to think getting slid is cool, they deserve to be taken out of the gene pool anyways.
WattMoodlol clearly you do not know lampard.

LampardThis is why I don't do this internet forum bullshit anymore.
I'm impartial to helmets and probably as far from a children's role model as you could get, but when it comes to avy safety, know or fuckin' don't go. That's one thing I will not budge upon, especially living in an environment like Montana and seeing what kind of a "safe" halo can arise around backcountry skiing with segments like this floating around. You hear about 5-6 avy related deaths a year hear, and 3 - 4 of them are usually from a younger demographic; exactly the kinda demographic that would have the most interest in movies like this.
californiagrownHow bout you enjoy the skiing and stop always looking for the sjw moral high ground.
californiagrownSo movies shouldn't show the dangers of BC skiing?
Can't have it both ways.

LampardDisplaying the dangers of BC skiing =/= Displaying stupid decision making.
californiagrownYou're guessing his first name is Henrik, no?
What I said is still just as relevant to his post haha.

HolteCan we talk about THall skiing switch in powder? He had some Nimbus level switch stuff. If there is one thing that skiing needs it's more switch in powder.
