1:10:21
You all right?.
Yeah.

1:10:23
Feel good?.
Yeah.

1:10:25
Good?. If you care,
I've got the power shot.

1:10:28
Yeah?.
Yeah. Nice one.

1:10:31
Whew! Just got to, uh,
keep fighting for those ones.

1:10:35
That thing cracked, and I just had-
I knew, I had to get to the side.

1:10:38
So, uh, I was able to weasel out.
1:10:42
Just, uh- You gotta be persistent,
hold that edge, keep cutting out of it.

1:10:46
[Haakonsen ]
You're pretty good at weasling.

1:10:49
That was right
where I was trying to go.
Yeah. It was perfect.

1:10:51
Then I just saw everything crack,
and it was, like- [ Screaming ]
The crack was huge. Oh,yeah.

1:10:54
Yeah.
1:10:56
[Haakonsen] It's a big avalanche
to wake up in the morning with,
and it's not gonna stop us.

1:11:00
We already knew that
before we came up here-
that there's gonna be avalanches.

1:11:04
We've both seen them before,
and let's keep rolling.

1:11:07
That's what A. K. is all about.
1:11:08
I was telling them that we were
gonna bump up and do another one.
[Haakonsen ] Yeah, pefrect.

1:11:12
Yeah.
1:11:30
[Rice ]
So much of snowboarding is-

1:11:32
all you have is what nature gives you
as far as features.

1:11:36
Like, 90% of what we do
is exploration,

1:11:38
trying to find,you know,
the pefrect feature.

1:11:45
[ Haakonsen ]
Some of the progression, I think, too,
is, like, how good are you to play?

1:11:49
Travis is a really good example.
He can play with any kind of terrain.

1:11:52
That's what makes him such
a well-rounded snowboarder.
