I DID watching the video... the one little avy I was in, I was amazed at how slow it starts.. and I was thinking, "no big deal" then things started moving..

had to re-watch that one a few times.

It's amazing how that snow moves like waves on open water. Scary.

Imagine hitting that wave then getting hucked off.....bad deal...

Wow

I have seen that one before that's a crazy deep slab. I bet they won't go two on a hill again. Someone wrote the sleds where buried ten feet deep and the guys were at the top, half buried.
