Wow that is a long way to roll. I watched the top one first and its hard to tell if he is alive for a while but when you watch how controlled he was on the way down in the third video it doesn't seem so bad.

He damn near made it up that chute. Rider error on his part right at the end. From the third video you can see that it was a pretty good pull up that hill.
Pretty good footage though.
Not so sure about the others who all went sliding down the hill on their butts. thats a good way to get hurt.

Kinda like watching the hill climbers wipe out and all the idiots running out to try and stop the sled. That was cool watching him turn and watch the sled catch up to him, his buddy actually passed it on the way down the chute. Why try so hard to stop it, it had allready rolled how many times and it looked like the roll was almost over by the time they grabbed it. Cool vid.

He needed to be a better rider.......lol.....at the top and hits the wall and launches it. He is lucky the sled was rolling sideways and never got on its skis or it might of smacked him hard coming down!!
If it got on its skis...sure would of made good video for a wicked wreck at the bottom!!
Yes seeing footage of hillclimbing gets my blood a pumping.....but first we need hunting season.

There ya go. I will take you up to the top, and you can ride your board back down.
Actually a few years ago I took a girl from New Zealand into the back country. I would climb hills and she would ride her board down. I think it beat any of the ski hills she hit up while in Canada.
