May 7, 20181 min read

There’s a whole lot wrong with this video—I’m still questioning the move to ditch the gloves but bring the whippet, which, as you’ll see above, didn’t do this guy much good. In fact, the only thing right in this clip is that this skier seems to be uninjured following his ski-less journey down the headwall at New Hampshire’s Tuckerman Ravine. Enjoy the spring carnage, folks!
