Jackson TR Vid from Jan 27-Feb 3

So last year went I went to jackson during the end of Jan/beginning of Feb the snow sucked... High pressure the entire week and a shitty 3 inches which made everything "soften" up just enough to enjoy it. This year after numerous snow dances and sacrifices, I got the best week of skiing I've ever had...

I stayed with Skijunky, Nipplehighpow, and Snowrider who were very accomodating and showed me the goods... Saw the sun for about an hour one day, but the rest of the trip it just continued to dump. We only filmed because I begged them, which means about 3/4 of the stuff we skied isn't on tape, but you'll get the idea... First time skiing on Spatulas which were sick (skied them the entire week) and first time attempting a backflip (you'll know which one is me) anyways, hope you guys enjoy and any feedback is greatly appreciated...

Sweet vid. Thanks

Downloading now.... I've learned that it's a good idea to download any video associated with UVM. thanks in advance for the stoke!

Nice vid. I wish I could get some snow like that up here at Baker right now, but the weather has gone crazy. Love the spats :biggrin:

Right on!

I was there that week too. Some great conditions.

Nice video, great memories from being out there that week too.

In fact I think I saw you(?) in Black Jacket, Kakhi pants on spats a bunch that week skiing Hobacks, Lower Sublette, etc...

That week was pretty killer to say the least. Too bad I can't watch the video at work, I'll have to check it out when I get home. Since you left it basically turned blue and warm, but tomorrow's storm could get us right back to early February (anti-jinx).

Nice Vid, that week/month was retarded!

Stoked that it might be back to winter when I return home on Monday....

I like the POV backflip around 2:30. Looks like you guys timed it right.

It looks like you shot it in 16:9 widescreen, but rendered it out to 4:3.

Yea i had some major issues with exporting the vid so the file size was manageable... I edited in adobe premier 6 and really don't have any idea what I'm doing so I just tried to make it look decent quality and manageable size... Always learning

dope. good job.

But of course. ;)

To the unskilled eye it looks sick, especially that little session towards the end. Hope the winter conditions stick around for a little while, I'm heading out there in a about two weeks. Giddy as ever.
