This clip shows the frothiest snowboarders, absolutely hungry for the powder, kind of blowing it on one of the most simple things you can do in a snowboard scenario: get off the lift. Sometimes the early bird gets the worm but sometimes the early bird is just too eager. See for yourself below.

These fellas woke up at 5 o'clock in the morning to get to Whistler Mountain in British Columbia, Canada and waited in the lift starting at 6:30 in the morning. That is some serious dedication. This crew got second chair ready to score some epic powder turns and when the lift stopped for like five seconds before the ramp to get off, they just started jumping off, dang near falling through the back side of the chair. But they redeemed themselves and I would bet on the fact that they had a super stokey, frothy day on the slopes. Hopefully they got some powder!
