that guy has to have balls the size of a elephant's that are made out of stainless steel, or titanium

**TROLL** · 02-18-2007, 11:28 PM

sick... terje is and has always been the man... i've got videos of him from 10 years ago, and one of my favorite boards ever was a terje pro model.

that shyt is crazy.

04 Turbo Spec · 02-19-2007, 12:30 AM

and i though i was a good skier (i know he snowboards but whatever)

97TurboDSM · 02-19-2007, 01:19 AM

wow. that was amazing. makes me feel like a piece of shyt for not going down the steepest trails at our mountains

**TROLL** · 02-19-2007, 01:23 AM

yeah the footage of that stuff is a whole other world from what we know... the absolute steepest trails we find on public mountains are about 30 degrees i believe, and that is what most consider to be very difficult. they said this one was 60, which is out of this world... i have so much respect for back country riders, love watching it. wish i was still out in colorado so i could get a little powder action too

dickerdieter · 02-19-2007, 01:24 AM

yea same here, then again i have only been boardin for like 4 years, but only goin once or twice a year if at all, hes prolly been boardin since he was 6 and goin everyday after school haha

97TurboDSM · 02-19-2007, 01:58 AM

yea our public mountains are weaksauce for the most part. in canada they are a bit steeper and i was there twice with a year in between. so i still have a lot of riding to do after starting two years ago with roundtop then to canada and then waiting a year to go back to canada with no riding in between. i wish i couldve found someone to go to big boulder with tonight for the midnight madness thing. oh well i think im goin to blue mtn next weekend. hopefully someday i'll ride a 60 degree mountain

Adam496 · 02-19-2007, 02:01 AM

I would love to go heli-boarding

Crzyguy972 · 02-19-2007, 02:33 AM

ehhh i used to do that when i was five

**TROLL** · 02-19-2007, 03:02 AM

ha... no seriously, you will never ride a mountain with that kind of slope, nor would you want to. i have ridden mountains all over the US and Canada and done a little bit of backcountry in CO when i lived out there, and nothing is anywhere close to this... this stuff is for the pros and the crazies, and thats it. that footage does kind of show how steep it is from a couple of the angles in the beginning, but even so, it doesnt look nearly as steep as it is until you're standing at the top looking down.
for those who dont know, terje haakonsen is the rider here and has been one of the biggest names in the snowboarding world for a long time.

jc8889 · 02-19-2007, 03:32 AM

That was nuts!!!

FASTERTHANU · 02-19-2007, 09:25 AM

Holy Cow

FASTERTHANU · 02-19-2007, 09:29 AM

That Was Nuts 7,000 Ft?!?!?!

boosted1eight · 02-19-2007, 11:52 AM

i love back country.. that's all we ever did in tahoe. i don't even ride anymore since i moved to the east coast.. it just doesn't seem worth it for the mtns around here. terje is the man.

Terje FTW. This guy is simply amazing. He can do it all and has been for so long.

gsrboi80 · 02-19-2007, 09:12 PM

Terje is the man. Yea man as Troll said the footage does not do that Peak justice. Ive been a skiier since I was a little kid and have skied my share of scary stuff I am confident on just about anything but this is beyond way beyond

Nice footage I really enjoyed watching that thanks

S.Milone · 02-21-2007, 12:43 PM

I can see his balls from here.

LSHatch · 02-21-2007, 01:34 PM

I'd be more scared just standing at the top there. Being scared of heights FTL!

That must have gotten his adrenaline pumping. To take a slope that steep at those speeds is the definition of difficult.
