Watch this badass power skier swoop through an actual mountain

Candide Thovex is having another one of those days in an aptly named new YouTube video, “One of those days 2.”

The professional skier from France has released yet another amazing point of view of his extreme skiing, and in this one, he skis through the actual mountain.

He also performs all kinds of crazy jumps and spin mid-air, including the part where he swoops by a ski lift, making the kid to the left on the lift (with his dad) go “woah!”

While I was hoping for some sweet electronica to accompany this brilliant short ski flick, the shush of the skis on the powder grows hypnotic after a bit. Give it a go, and let us know what you think. You can check out the original “One of these days” video on YouTube as well.

Now I want to go skiing.
