    One of the best. His part in SM 3 was insane, all those straightlines and skiing an insane line on Morrison hotel. I hope he gets a good long trip to Alaska or Bella Coola this year.

    Thumbs up

    He ALWAYS rips on the films I've seen. Him and Hugo Harrison always attack the mountain like it's the last run of their lives.

    His base jumps were insane too. That borderline doable basejump without a parachute he does with a parachute is pretty sick. He just looks like he is having a ton of fun.

    Which line/run is Morrison hotel in SM3? Also which is Harrison hotel, is it the one Hugo take a huge high-speed fall in Yearbook?

    Harrison hotel is the one Hugo cartwheels on in yearbook. Morrison hotel is skied by JT (among others) in SM3 near the end of his part. It is a long sick spine that he skis very slowly, with hop turns, then airs a small cliff at the bottom. It is an amazing line. Seth also skis a line on Morrison hotel in SM 3, although you only see one shot of it: An insane turn on a vertical spine wall with sluff coming down around him. I believe Mcgovern also skis a line on that peak in SM 3, although I am not sure. Kreitler, I think, skis a line on the peak that is very similar to JT's in the Prophecy. Seth skis the first descent of the peak in the DVD extras of SM 2.
