Grinding an avalanche blaster

[Rich_D]

Has anyone got any vids or pics of anyone grinding off an avalanche blaster tube (think they’re called gazex pipes) got an idea for a photo short vid but haven’t seen it done before

Good luck if you stomp it and don't die instantly from skiing a 45+ degree slope filled with avy debris

Most you could do is probably taps at the ones I've seen. They have massive flanges on them, other vent shit on top, are built in areas with almost no run ups, and are usually at horrible angles.

There’s a few in France that look doable with a little shovel work - obvs wouldn’t leave it built up afterwards from a safety perspective

There’s also this one with east lift access above some fairly moderate off piste. Thai looks doable

Theres a bunch in BC. Ive had the thought, but there are too many problems. I can start with the rust…
