The ultimate heli-skiing playlist
Every great heli-skiing adventure deserves a soundtrack. We asked our guides to share their ultimate skiing songs—here’s the playlist to fuel your next ride.
For a lot of people, the experience of skiing and snowboarding is linked to a particular song. They have it in their head when they put the boots on, they sing it out loud when they’re on a really great run or they think of skiing and snowboarding whenever it’s playing.
We’ve asked our guides about their ultimate heli-skiing song and these are the results:
Hugh: “Better than something” by Module
Pete W.: “Magdalena” by Perfect Circle
Anna: “Low rider” by War
Deano: “We gotta get out of this place” by The Animals
Rich: “Head for the hills” by Iron Maiden
Laetitia: “Mal de terre” by Mamaku Project
Pete B.: “What is hip” by Power of Tower
Grom: “Mellow Marmelade” by Tash Sultana
Whitney: “Telephone” by Captain Beefheart
Rene: “Autumn leaves” by Niko De Rohan
Andy: “Shape shifter gravity” by Pitch Black
We recommend that you take all of these songs and make it into a Spotify-Playlist. It will remind you of great skiing and winter whenever you listen to it!
