POV: Chasing a Skier Through a Steep Couloir on a Mountain Bike

We’ve watched skiers arc turns down knife-edge spines and riders carve their way through dusty singletrack — but rarely do those worlds collide on the same face, in the same moment. Until now.

This jaw-dropping clip blurs the line between winter and dirt in a way we’ve never quite seen before. A skier drops into a steep, exposed couloir — nothing out of the ordinary for a seasoned big-mountain charger. But then, right behind them, a mountain biker rolls in. No traction. No margin for error. Just pure commitment.

What unfolds isn’t just a high-consequence descent — it’s a synchronized dance of chaos and control. The skier sets the pace, slicing through corn snow and sending spray into the air. The rider, chasing their line like a shadow, holds speed through loose rock, side-slipping turns that were never meant to be ridden on two wheels.

This isn’t a gimmick. It’s a testament to precision, trust, and the kind of mental fortitude that only comes from living on the edge — quite literally. One misstep, and it’s not just a fall; it’s a crash course in consequences. But both riders stay locked in, floating down the face with grace and grit.

In a world that loves to draw lines — ski season ends here, bike season starts there — this moment says otherwise. It’s a reminder that boundaries are meant to be tested, and that the best lines are often the ones no one’s drawn yet.
