Veronica Paulsen Peels Back The Curtain On Her Corbet's Double Backflip Attempt

Skiing, whether you’re a first-timer or lifelong diehard, is all about chasing the next peak.

That could be finally tackling that one Double Black Diamond trail. Or, it could be checking “ski in Japan” off the bucket list. For professional skier Veronica Paulsen, her personal mountain was about as lofty as it gets: she wanted to land a double backflip into Jackson Hole's daunting Corbet’s Couloir. 

The terrain feature positioned below the Aerial Tram is one of the Mountain West’s best-known test pieces.
