This is me dropping about 350' in 20 seconds, glissading in soft snow with no protection.
Trying to use a handheld camera while glissading means that you can't properly control yourself with your ice axe, leading to a mostly-uncontrolled descent. In this case the snow was plenty soft and there was a safe run-out, so I went for it.
