As the title of this video says, the coolest extreme skiing dudes, is a really cool ski video of extreme skiing in the woods. The pro extreme skiers go ski jumping over cliffs in the glades, go down some crazy steeps between cliffs, and do some simple tricks all with great camera work in some really deep powder. These extreme skiers make it look too easy.

On top of the amazing deep powder skiing, there is also some solid telemark skiing.

The scenery is also splendid, would love to go skiing there. Unfortunately, I have no idea where this video is filmed…

Corbet’s Couloir is the most famous and hardest run at Jackson Hole in Wyoming.  It is one of the few slopes to have its own wikipedia article! Here are some highlights:

“Currently rated #4 on the top fifty things for skiers to do before they die, it holds an international reputation among expert skiers, and has been described as “America’s scariest ski slope”

“Entrance into the couloir requires dropping off a cornice with a free fall ranging from 10 to 30 feet (9.1 m) depending upon snow conditions, landing on a 60 plus degree slope.”

So it’s pretty hard. In this ski video, we see the guy skiing up to the ski run, past a big “CLOSED” sign. They chill up at the top and watch a guy ski down it nicely. The camera man’s friend then jumps in, doesn’t look too good. We are then informed that he “yard saled” and see him collecting his equipment. Ends up he has an ACL injury, that sucks. Awesome run though!

Here we have a Mt Blanc glacier ski video filmed on the Brenva Glacier in the backcountry of Chamonix. For those who don’t know, Mt Blanc is the highest peak in the Europe and is located in the French Alps, close to the Swiss border. The town of the resort is Chamonix and is well known as one of the best ski resorts in the world.

The snow skiers in this video ski do some hiking using freeride binding that unhook at the heel and then ski down some incredible steeps in the glaciers in powder only found in the backcountry.

Note that most of the skiing starts after the half way point of the video.

Some beautiful backcountry ski footage in Hurrungane, Norway. These guys ski down the craziest steep I’ve seen. It’s a sheet of snow over some rocks at a slop that is probably over 75 degrees! These guys show us what ski touring is all about.

This extreme skiing video is filmed in the three valleys area in Norway. The valleys are: Skagadalen, Riingsdalen, and Styggedalen.
