Video Madness - oootah

By: Paul Gemignani

This weeks video was filmed in the Utah Backcountry again, near Chad's gap but on a north facing slope. So this basically means it is in the shade usually hidden (the snow) from the sun which keeps the powder nice, cold and fresh. This was a little popper into a nice pow stash, and we had to ride along the ridge line we hiked up as our inrun. Skiers hiking up the same ridge line were getting pissed because we kept telling them to hold on as we strapped in and hit this with out people getting in our way. This was a fun, cold day and the jump was lofty, letting us get a few shots on it for sure. The spot is still there today and is always good for freshies when most of Utah is tracked out. This was about 4 or so years ago, back when I rode regionally for Salomon and Bonfire. Crazy how time fly's. Anyways, the goods are always there to be found. Hopefully this winter, you can find yours. Peace!
