THIS IS IT! A 27-minute documentary offering an immersive experience of the Perfect Hip.
The records have been smashed and tricks have been stomped. Now it’s time to sit back and enjoy a deep dive into the world of this year’s Swatch Nines at Schilthorn, Switzerland!
This year’s highlight edit takes a different approach to encapsulating the Swatch Nines experience. Instead of a few minutes packed with action, the 2024 recap takes a more documentary approach to show the event from several angles, from entertaining and insightful behind-the-scenes moments to the utmost peak of the action. You asked for more, so THIS IS IT!

shout out to Lukas Braune, Lukas König, & Lukas Hauser. crazy that you all have the same name lol
This is the biggest but also safest built set-up. Super props to the design team. Massive air potential with equally massive transitions and landing zones.
Thanks for the nice words!!
Shout-out to the three Lukas who probably haven't slept in like 4 days, putting this edit together 🤌
Lukas Braune made like most of the music too, the 3 Lukas are legends frfr
Hot Media House for the win!!
@@SwatchNines How do I get Lukas beats??
hearing steep steep yell makes me smile
So proud to have been part of this incredible event!
Yesss❤
stunning....stunning... stunning... edit pacing, music (that jazz drip in the middle = chef's kiss), sound design, obviously the shots (them locked frame shots got me all moistness).... ladies and gents, this is the forefront of snow cinematography right here... and at an event, published a couple of day after the event finished.... mental. big ups to all the teams of people that made this thing happen. (insert relevant emojis)
Missed you!!! ❤
It's Finally Done! YAY FIRST!! Can't wait to go one day ❤
Are you not going to the swatch nines? Love your channel and your sking
Would be incredible to see you there Bruce
❤❤❤
@@SwatchNinesU need to bring this man there, hes incredible!❤
PLEASE KEEP THIS GOING EVERY YEAR
We will💪🏼
Wow this is a masterpice! The event, the rideing, the videoediting, the filming, everything! thank you all so much
Our pleasure!
Hype on finally having decent music in the highlight vids
This is so sick! Super stoked to be part of this video!
Pfiew, masterpiece as usual, and that intro....🤤! Thanks for having us again, grateful that we can do our drone stuff around such talented athletes, creative crew and most of all, super fun, sweet and talented people 🙏
What a fucking sick events and vibes! Nines is consistently one of the dopest snow events there is!
This is always an awesome event! Props to all the riders and skiers! That 14+ meter air was NUTS!
No doubt!
The shot at 20:18 is just incredible
Congrats to the riders for flying that high with such massive balls
Such a cool video. Godlike edit, perfectly fitting music and awesome stunts. It is pleasure to watch this every year. Keep up the great work!!
Absolutely insane art on snow.
Wow! everything about that was just breathtaking. The videography, the timeline, the records. Just Wow! Props to the entire team for setting everything up, and obviously not to mention the athletes which come and bring their A game. Thanks for Everythign Nines, hopefully you keep going to the very end!
I would be as hyped as the snow equivalent of Nicolai Rogatkin seeing this in person! HOLY shitballs that was frickin’ AWESOME!!! Massive props to Swatch, the course builders, videographers and the lunatics brave enough to send it 🙌👊 Awesome edit 🤘❤️🌈🕊️🌍
WHAT AN EVENT😍 props to all the people involved 🙏
Every year im mindblown by the entire crew. Specifically the guys building and designing the courses. Every year is a new best of its own uniqueness. Looking forward for the years to come and hopefully participating by 2030
Great work as usual, but perhaps one criticism: too many looping drone shots for my taste. The drone follow shots that end up looping make you lose all sense of size and distance from the jump, and I find they really spoil some shots. From my point of view, it makes for nice transition shots, but completely detracts from the beauty of certain tricks. We remain human, and it is difficult to project oneself when the point of view is not at least somewhat stable and roughly at the same height as the rider. Hence the success of stabilizers at one time
I love it! Pure vibes⚡
What a beauty. Big ups to everybody!!!
French cover of LCD Sound System great choice!!!
Such a sick event and this recap!! thank you the 9s!
This event is always mind boggling
thanks you guys, god that italian song
bro is a better boarder than me sitting his ass down on a ski chair, legend
Wow I enjoyed every single second of this video ,Great skiing, great edits and great spirit so cool to see that even in a big event like the Nines you still find the freeski spirit
everything on fleek! a perfect portrait of the best sport in the world
Congrats editor🎉
7:46 best trick! Tweaking from indy to tucknee in the middle of a double wildcat has my mind blown!
This is probably the most epic place to build the most epic park ever
Очень Мощно !!! Аномалия в гравитации на местности 🎉🎉🎉Как они улетают ❤❤❤
🎉❤🎉❤🎉Вы все, все нереально крутые! Проект не имеющий аналогов во всем мире! Восторг, восхищение и респект организаторам, операторам и конечно участникам!!!
Nice edit, what a master piece! Always love to see the after movies of the Nines!
piece of art !!!
So glad I know about this event
Great event, thank you all👏

soundcloud :)
Appreciate the nice words!! Lukas Braune's Soundcloud is right here: on.soundcloud.com/ah4Le6U4xv6HcnmV8
masterpiece
Art work！！💥❤️🔥
I love these massive hips. I wish every year there was an event that had a hip to push the limits. xGames has gotten stale. We need more of these events
Appreciate that!
Bought a pair of the 2020 Audi x Nines gloves without knowing about the event, glad to of done my research and found this channel - this is insane
🔥🔥🔥🔥
would be interesting to know if you meassure the height from the takeoff or landing.. since the landing is a bit higher where they land than where they take off..
From the take off it’s measured how high they go. The landing is a little higher for safety reasons, but most riders land way deeper. :)
@@SwatchNines so theoreticly you could shape a 40m high landing and if they take of at 10m and kind of ride it as „step up“ (kind of like the side jump to hip landing this year) it would still count as a 30m air if they land all the way on top of the landing? i know the numbers are unrealistic but just in a smaller scale..
@@jamesplaum1927 please read our answer again, check the video and you might understand. The landing is only a little bit higher to prevent people from decking heavily after hitting the take off in a slightly wrong way. If they jump straight like the hip jumps are intended to be hit they would land lower than the take off. How you're describing it, it for sure doesn't count but just check out the video and the record parts again and maybe it makes sense!
@@jamesplaum1927bro come on… use your brain 😂
@@SwatchNines i‘m not saying that this 3 records which were set are not valid. also i think this i a legit setup, even tho the landing in slightly higher. but i‘m just questioning the „rules“ of a world record jump in general. since it‘s more safe to jump up (stepup) then jump down (stepdown).
Incredible
lmao Matej Svancer pulling a Method grab off that massive hip.
Finally!!!
This video is absolutely crazy!!! congrats to everyone. Love this event
Its a piece of ART
Thanks
You are the best
HELL YEAH
great stuff
WTF new swiss snowboarding and skiing lore just dropped! everyting in this video is wild!
Please let me know how much footage this in total was! in like terabytes or whatever is higher than that
Props to the cinematography crew🤙🤙🔥
You are all sick🤘🤘🤘
this might be the coolest wintersport video of all time
Great cut!
20:14 !
unreal film
SO SIICK!
🐐🐐🐐🐐
nice!
hell yea
Jesper was the closest to alley oop. Skiers prevail.
It was an absolute blast to be a part of this madness! Shoutout to all you legends! ❤🤙🏽🚁🏂⛷️💨
So cool for you :)
🙏🙏🙏
huggeeeeeeee props
massive
crazy
Sad to dont see Andri :(
So cool. But what I don’t get is that some freestylers still don’t wear a helmet. There is the same event for Mountainbike and no one would even consider not to wear a helmet
Most wear a helmet especially when hitting the big hip, but it’s still a free choice to wear one or not.
Wtf…biiiig up ❤❤
🤙🏼
unreal
🤟🏼
kim is such a cutie pookie
This guy is fuckin rad but damn I like his coat too.
Does anyone now the name of the song at 24:30 ?
I can hear steep steep yellin
Matej Svancer @ 10:40 WTF DID HE DO???
好撚正
jesper's feature was more dangerous than the hip
BACONJUHIS MENTIONED🥇🥇
Got to be the worst thumbnail ever for something so good 😮
テレビゲームかと思ったわ。
Slow, large, clean tricks 👍👍 I hate todays ”modern” 2048 degree double backflip upside down crap. So stupid.
i really hate how this was filmed. Editing also cuts out the tricks a lot. Weird video.
Just watch it again😘
Nah you didn’t watch the edit, go watch it again and you might find peace. :)
@@SwatchNines no stop with the flashy editing and camera spins you ruined the amazing tricks they were throwing down.
That hip looks like it should have it’s own gravitational pull!
What garbage editing. I guess showing one entire shot isn't a thing anymore.
Maybe watch it again! :)
