I realy do not understand what he does : it's seem's like when you go strait down on a slope with a lonely three in the middle and you go volontary in it... How is it possible to explose yourself like that ??? Extreme-training for extreme-falling-down ???

Perhaps did he sundenly fall in a deep sleep (there is a sikness like that...)

?

Frank. This guy did not hit a "tree" - he fly up on the kicker and fall on his back. But actually it makes no difference - he believe that the Master is riding where any mistake can cost you your life...like the guy who switches off mines, not the coal ones but that explodes.
We do not support that he threatning his life, but he is sort of a crazy guy.

Myself I have never understood what I'm doing and why.
By the way this video made me hilarious! I like the final backside turn.
Thank you Vitaly for sharing this.
I hope that all is OK with Alexey, no injuries of the body and... of the brain.

That style of riding it's a matter of taste... i guess
But riding so close to ski-lift and put other people health in danger is so stupid.
Here is more of this unique and unforgettable style:

Maybe Alexey was drinking a bit too much of the good russian vodka before going down the slope like this
But i met him last year at the ECS and he is a very nice guy and i can assure you he is able to master EC as well.
Brand doesn´t matter, the spirit does!

Yep

he is nice when he sleep with teeth faced the wall

he do not drink alcohol

especially before riding

)) But what is true - he is a carve master...and crazy guy
Now he is in Courchevel - training this pump style on the green/blue slopes. He developed a board that fits best for this technique.

Guys....after the 1000th time doing the same flat piste over and over I would start to behave crazy like Alexey and possibly try to committ suicide against a big pole... nothing strange in that!!!

some people need a training on flat slopes

this actually helps for good EC
Discuss other person when he is not here is sort of stupid thing, we need to stop that.
