The Inertia

Teton Gravity Research is in full-on promo mode, hyping its new film, “Tight Loose.” This week, they released this clip of Canadian Nick McNutt on a nutty line (sorry, had to). He was filming with the crew in some dicey avalanche conditions in the North Cascades so the slide wasn’t unexpected. He drops into a tight line and the slope lets loose. Thankfully, his skis were waxed to the right temp (ha!). Seriously, dude points ’em and airs over a spine to escape the maw. Pretty wicked line. Needless to say, they skied the trees the rest of the day. Worthy clip, though. And McNutt was pretty lucky.
