MIKE WILSON was the one who decided to film Chad’s Gap for his TV Show.
HARRISON COLE is the main filmer who follows Mike around the World to film for his TV show.
Harrison took some of these Screen Shots from his RED CAMERA.
He took them to send to Jonny Decesare so he knew that CHADS GAP was going down.
A nice Lifestyle on the lip of Chads.
A Speed check, 50 to Zero in 30 feet.
Pump the brakes.
Leo Ahrens gives it a check.
Getting there, shovel by shovel
Long Day of shoveling, I had to stay positive.

We got an E-mail at Saga Outerwear from a guy who was skinning up the Gulch March 6th and got a great view of our Chads gap session. The reaction is funny, and I am happy the guys know that I am OK. I am OK. You are going to have to wait for the movie Revolver to see the close up zoomed in shots ( I had to watch it twice to even see the speck fly across the youtube video). The guy names the video Kangaroo, maybe it looked like that from far away, but it was a double flip.

Today was my first day out in the helicopter and it was a good day to check things out and get myself ready for this trip. I am strong as a horse and after today I am feeling ready for the next couple of sessions we are gonna have up here with Pep and Dane Tudor.
We went to this cool feature, it is a big glacial moraine. It appeared smaller from the heli. Once we got down there it was way bigger than it looked! It had a ton of flat bottom and we thought we were just going to be able to boost off it. A moraine is a big trench of glacial debris left by a receding glacier. It makes for a nice steep landing thats for sure.
I want to thank Smith and Atomic for helping make this trip possible, and of course Saga, Look for more daily updates from south east coastal ALASKA.
Go Pro outta control, Pep and Julien
This is a Moraine, it is way bigger in person, when I skied up to it I was suprised.
The speed of the blade is too much for my little Iphone, it looks like we lost a blade captain
