Guillaume Decugis's insight:

This is madness. I went to Snowbird recently and I heard this was indeed the way ski patrols organized it. When an ungroomed run is secured from avalanches they’ll drop the rope and let in the dozens of riders who’ve been waiting for that signal. Crazy.

Not sure if this would be something I want to check every day but for specific rides and if ever I go back to racing this can be interesting.

Guillaume Decugis's curator insight, February 11, 2017 3:48 PM

We've had sensors for golf and tennis: here's the ski version. Concept explained in this video and website at carv.ai. I was a bit skeptical at first that this would be just for beginners but the part on racing in interesting.

Guillaume Decugis's insight:

This is a video my friend Claude posted after he got caught in an avalanche 5 years ago. Everybody made it safely but things could have ended badly. This is a good reminder of some basic safety rules, among which having beacons and ABS bags of course but also keeping safe distances. The video clearly shows that if they had been packed, skiing at 10 meters from one another, they'll have been all caught in the same batch.

(Also check the full story on Medium - in French).

Beautiful quotes and images on Mont Blanc from Kilian Jornet, Ueli Steck, Candide Thovex, and Catherine Destivelle. Makes you want to climb, right?

Who said there's no snow in the Spring? As they say, "Val d'Isere always delivers".

Beautiful act of faith when you watch the GoPro angle. Better watch out for those arms.

Oui vraiment bien et surtout il faut tenir dans ce genre de long run et ne pas oublier de respirer ;-) @Guillaume Decugis / Si vous passez à Chamonix, venez essayer des skis Black Crows avec nos ambassadeurs dans la plus belle vallée du monde :-)

Guillaume Decugis's comment, July 11, 2016 9:22 PM

@Vincent Bronner - Pas eu l'occasion d'aller à Cham depuis 5 ans mais je skie avec des Camox freeride (à Val d'Isère) donc je connais bien les Black Crows :-)

Vincent Bronner's comment, July 11, 2016 10:09 PM

Super choix le #Camox freebird, polyvalent et performant. Un ski bien né développé par Camille Jaccoux, Brunot Compagnet et Julien Régnier himself. Enjoy skiing! @Guillaume Decugis

Forget GoPro on your helmet: this is even better. Xavier de le Rue has been playing with drones to shoot amazing movies for a while: looks like he found a way to make his idea mainstream. Amazing and brilliant: well done!
