One Video TR: Teton pass 1-14-08

[robokill1981]

Took a lap on the pass this morning with the POV1. Up top the snow was pretty wind hammered and down low it was getting manky but there are still spots of great snow out there even in the high traffic areas.

Oh and before anyone mentions it...yeah I skied that double at the bottom slow as hell but it was my first time hitting that and I'm a big baby

[FreakofSnow]

Nice line, those drops seem to come up out of nowhere.

[BestofShow]

great stuff with the pov1

was that the sunset tree's praxis I noticed?

[robokill1981]

Yep. I've been on the 195's almost every day this year and I'm really digging them, they definitely handled the variable snow today really well.

Nice vid. I remember a few years ago I did a trip down there and went through that pass almost this time of year and was blown away by the number of skier exits along the road! Nice to se what it looked like from above.

About the camera, even with the shitty You tube compression you can still see the contrast the the POV1 is getting. In your opinion, how good is it? Is that the stock lens BTW?
I like the skis too, same as mine :-)

[skier666]

Thanks for sharing your run...pretty sweet

[FrankZappa]

That was cool! Thanks.

Oh, and you should be careful out there. It sounded like a cougar was chasing you all the way down.

[Steven S. Dallas]

Ratatat!

Sounded a little crispy at times but looks like a blast overall, thanks.

Nice video, looked like a fun line. One question though... was that soundtrack pulled from a NES video game, elevator, or soft core porn? I love the random cat growl in the background.

Found this when I googled cat growl.

This high intensive sound made when the cat is extremely angry is
called "caterwauling." The sound can vary but it is usually very
high and extremely intense.

[Evmo]

Sweet... is that a side helmut mount or top helmut?

[lax]

bad ass. really want to ski thurr

[JeffreyJim]

REALLY can't wait to be back....

That helped put me in the right mindset.

Good vid Ben!!

Stay safe.

[Particle]

[thd]

[Dside11-11]

[sar13]

[Steven S. Dallas]

[Vicious]

Sweet B! Now I'm itching even worse to come visit...

[robokill1981]

Stoked you guys like the vid. Since I can take the cam out from work whenever I want I may start using it more often.

2stix-The POV1 has been really working well for us. We had a few problems using it int the water but we're running an entirely stock set up and have had great results. It's definitely worth the hefty price tag if you have the extra cash.

Evmo-That's a side helmet. I've got a Smith Variant Brim so I figured I'd just throw it on the side so the brim wouldn't get in the way. I wish I had angled it a little lower and done a better tape job, but it was cold and I wanted to ski.

Jeffrey-Get back up here! Rook just got a huge L couch that I'm sure you could live on for the season Did you notice how small that rock gap drop is now? Everything is crazy filled in now.

thd-Steven S. Dallas has you covered. Ratatat "Classics" is the album.

Dside, Vicious, Particle- when are you guys coming up???

[grskier]

Nice... Cool footage!

[Crinkle]

robothrill!! nice work mang.

[Z]

[meatdrink9]

Solid run top to bottom.

[Core Shot]

Nice vid. POV makes me feel like its me. thx for the happy pants.

PS - pretty tracked and windblown considering how much snow you got in the last 10 days.
