These days, in professional skiing, adaptability is the name of the game. Jones, who can cork and drop cliffs with the best of them, clearly has that trait in spades.

My Take was shot last winter, but we've decided to consider it an unofficial teaser for the upcoming release of the footage from the first-ever skiing stop of the Natural Selection Tour.

The competition, which has already occurred (no, we don't know who won), will stream on April 17 on Red Bull's website. In the meantime, we've been eagerly anticipating the outcome. Based on everything we've seen and heard, NST Ski could be one of the best—if not the best—shows of the season, so get that popcorn ready.

Jones is on the NST Ski roster. We won't bore you by listing every single name that joined him, but the crew was beyond stacked and included the likes of Parker White, Michelle Parker, and Markus Eder.

When you take skiers of this caliber, ship them out to Alaska, and sic 'em on a towering freeride-ready face, odds are good the results will be brain-melting. Input from the similarly impressive NST Ski Advisory Committee featuring none other than Candide Thovex and Kristi Leskinen certainly helped.

So, if you haven't already done so, go ahead and mark April 17 on your calendar. We all need something to look forward to.

In the meantime, here's a clip of Jones throwing a double backflip at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort that doesn't totally make sense.
