Oh yeah, it's only going to get better.
What up you guys?
Dylan and Jack back here with another video.
Today is going to be the day of days.
The day that we've been dreaming of for the last couple years.
It's been snowing like crazy for the last 72 hours and it's clearing right now.
We're in a zone where there's going to be huge jumps potentially and we've got a killer
crew so I'm stoked.
We threw the sled deck in for all these extreme conditions.
The Dura-Dex has been awesome for flexibility, getting back into zones like this.
You can see there's not a trailer in sight because we are up in the goods.
We've been playing down low in the trees, getting into the nasty stuff just to stay
safe but today there's sun, it's clearing up.
We've got an awesome crew, Austin Lobner, Eric Tucker, Zach Hahn.
Every time we're with these guys I seem to hit the biggest jumps of my life and today's
got the right recipe for that exactly.
We just hit 20,000 subscribers on YouTube.
Thank you guys so much for supporting us and our dream here.
This is so fun to be able to go out ride zones like this with the people that we love, meeting
new friends all the time and getting to hit big jumps and ride deep hop.
So we are not going to waste any time here.
The vibes are all time, everyone is vibing, jamming music behind us so we're going to
get geared up the rest of the way here and make our way up the trail and we'll see you
guys up there.
Let's go!
Belt.
Alright, it's time to drop the gas.
This is insane.
Probably right up there with one of the deeper days of the year.
We don't usually pack gas because we are filming a lot and hitting a lot of features and stuff.
We don't often cover a lot of ground, but today we're going to need it.
Let the excavation begin.
The boys had shoveled this in a few days back.
How long ago did you shovel this in, Austin?
Four days.
Four days ago?
It's pretty much fully reset now, so we're just kind of shaping it back out and we should
be able to send it.
Hopefully the sun sticks around, I think it will, but huge potential for some massive
air here.
We're putting a little more Wu-Tang on it, right?
That's right.
A little more Wu-Tang.
Wu-Tang clan.
Wu-Tang.
We need to make it steeper.
This jump is nuts, man.
Absolutely insane.
This is for sure the biggest jump that we have hit, much less been a part of or around
all season.
Yeah, no doubt.
And the snow is just perfect for it.
This landing has all kinds of little aspects on it, but there is one great transition over
that knuckle.
I was able to nail it twice and it just felt buttery.
We're at like 8,900 feet right here.
I'm going to check to see what the altitude is down there, but I mean that's a big drop.
It just felt like you're falling out of the sky.
Yeah, you're gaining a lot of terminal velocity by the time you land.
It's crazy to feel like the snow, like the force that it had on you when you landed actually
because there's so much of it.
It's crazy.
I've never hit a jump this big, much less in this much snow.
Yeah, huge thanks to these guys for taking us out to this zone, showing us this jump,
and then letting us hit it first, too.
The generosity, boys.
Thanks, dude.
Thank you.
But it sounds like there's one more that's kind of like this, so we're going to have
some lunch here and then go check it out.
This has been like the best day of snowmobiling yet.
We said that yesterday, but today might be better.
It keeps on getting better.
Best day in a few seasons, I would say.
Yeah, no doubt.
We have moved down the mountain a little bit and found another jump that some snowboarders
had built, and we are shaping it, dialing it in a little more tang, just to get a little
more pop.
But this is a pretty wicked landing.
It's nice and steep, kind of fans out.
There is one funnel into the trees, but we won't worry about that.
We've just been slaying pow, like over the head pow all day, too.
It's just been insane.
I'm tired.
Last couple of days have been nonstop, running out of gas, darn near.
Today will be no different.
We're kind of losing light right now, but it's clear enough that you can still see the
landing stuff.
Getting her dialed in, final touches, and then let's get sandy.
Flip it, flip it, flip it, flip it.
This may have been one of the greatest days of my life.
The snow was insane, the sky was clear, the crew was awesome, and we were hitting gigantic
jumps.
That first jump we hit downhill, we measured it out, it was like a 120 foot vertical drop
from lip to bomb hole.
That was just exhilarating.
It's unlike any other feeling, honestly.
It's something I look forward to all year, and this is the first day we've gotten to
hit big jumps like that.
I'm just so stoked.
The Gen 5 turbos are awesome in this stuff.
These are truly deep snow machines.
I think I prefer my Polaris in a lot of tree riding situations and more marginal snow,
but these things rock in this stuff.
We needed to bring all the gas that we did.
We're running on fumes coming out.
What an awesome day.
I can't really put into words how awesome today was.
