Tim Humphreys GoPro Snowboarding 2011 - Go Pro HD Hero self filming

[Jaxob19]

What goggles is he rockin? By the way this is probs one of the best gopro edits ive seen! Welllll doneeee!

[samilitio]

Have you got any advice for someone that wants to start jumping and do tricks and stuff, I'm a big fan of your work!

[MrPat4242]

where are you for the first cuple of jumps??



[Markodide]

i suddenly feel like i wanna do something with my life..

[abstraktcs]

@Markodide Go do it!! there's so much out there that you have no clue about until you come across it :D

[Markodide]

@abstraktcs yeah... but then again i´m 14 :) = my parents own me D:

[niketzu28]

pls telle me how did you get it full screen i cant get my own gopro stuff full screen help pls

[abstraktcs]

@niketzu28 if you're going to legitimately ask editing questions, you need to be a little more specific. no one will answer you unless you clearly describe your exact problem. I assume you're talking about when you upload your gopro videos to YouTube that there's no option to make them full screen? If so, that leads me to believe that you aren't exporting them to the correct size before you upload them. If you are filming in 720p, you need to export to 1280x720 w/ square pixels.

[monkrys6110]

i need a snowboard. me too poor

[abstraktcs]

@monkrys6110 I used to bag groceries at fuckin shop-rite. If you really want a snowboard and to go shred, go find yourself a job or a somewhat legal way to make money and scoop a good deal off ebay or craigslist or something.

[charizard911]

How can you dislike this video?? It amped me up for boarding today and I actually hit a bigger jump than I normally would and nailed it! I would say this is inspiring!

[Blink182islegend]

Dude mad props on this video! really its mint. I just put up a gopro vid of me and some friends doing some park stuff if you'd like to check it out. and if you choose to i will let you know we are no where as good as you. but its a fun edit

[blahhhhh439]

[XxXal3csXxX]

cool snowboarding!!!! name of original song?

[thecareecare]

Awesome video! sweet jumps!

check out my new Snowboard movie!

[fletcherjarvis]

Nice one. Cheers! Still deciding which R to use all the time. I think 3 is pretty good. Enjoy the winter!

[beast3521]

@abstaktcs sweet man you made the right choice, Frends is a sick crew of guys! A-51 is only gettin better! Best park in CO by far!

[iManiaHD]

ส็็็็็็็็็็็็

[beast3521]

@abstraktcs sick man Ive watched this 100 times and i like it more after each time. Ive seen you up in keystone a few times this year with the Flow boys absolutely killing it! Weren't you sponsored by skullcandy? Just watched Keir Dillon interviewing you and you were reppin some Frends! (best headphones in the world)

[abstraktcs]

@beast3521 Yoo man! glad ya liked it :D howww fun was that park at keystone early season?! I gave up on skullcandy because they never gave a shit about me. It just so happens that ma boi Lago and a few other guys I know started a headphone company, so it's cool to be helping them out. how's the shredding been?!

[ebowlie24]

just looking for some recognition, not trying to spam, new edits coming out, we aren't the best skiers but we like to have a good time, please check us out here: watch?v=6BjdOHc4LcA or on my channel

[NerdyKidan]

stop holding the cameras and just strap them on like they're meant to be!

[abstraktcs]

@NerdyKidan NEVER!!!!

[fletcherjarvis]

Sick video. Tried filming some with a pole mount today. What r setting is this all shot on? Cheers

[abstraktcs]

@fletcherjarvis Hero is r3, hero2 is r4 I think. it's the 720p60 setting!

[adlncole]

I wanna go snowboarding

[abstraktcs]

@adlncole what's stopping you?

[Markodide]

@abstraktcs miami.. no snow here D:

[23ghillieinthemist]

Amazing video :D

[iManiaHD]

Twixtor at 1:10 ?

[abstraktcs]

@iManiaHD I wish I had twixtor when I made this edit. it's just some speed ramping in AE

[Ridonculousman]

sweet video man, do you know how high you where in the mega jumps?

[abstraktcs]

@Ridonculousman as high as wu-tang gets! I dunno.. 20-30 ft?

[shredz13]

[abstraktcs]

[Dutchtacular]

[abstraktcs]

@GOPROinthe206 i gave it a thumbs up

[zjones121]

You smoke weed? lololoololololololol

[abstraktcs]

@zjones121 I dunno, I'm too stoned. what's weed?

[TyrellzRandomz]

best shit i have ever seen man you should be sponsored

[abstraktcs]

@TyrellzRandomz whats a sponsor?

[tomwm123]

@abstraktcs Hey man, what pole are you using? and where did you get it?

[abstraktcs]

@tomwm123 no pole here, just some black connector pieces that come in the box w/ the camera. Best part about GoPro's is that they're bulit to be mcgyvered! holla! -Tim

[Mrleon52]

while i'm reading you comments i see you're a really nice and funny person :)

[Mrleon52]

while i'm reading you comments i see you're a really nice and funny person :)

[abstraktcs]

@Mrleon52 awwwww thanks! : ) I'm just tryin to get back to everyone who takes the time to write me something!

[blkout15]

Dude your arm must kill lol

[abstraktcs]

@blkout15 only my left one because it doesn't get all the exercise my right one does :P

[DSC379]

what did you edit this video with ?



[abstraktcs]

@DSC379 all sorts of stuff. this one is mostly final cut and after effects

[Dutchtacular]

Hey guys, Im going snowboarding for the first time in my life. Tips? I could really use some.

[abstraktcs]

@Dutchtacular Judging by your name, don't skimp on the windmills, chocolate, and waffle cookies. Now that's all taken care of, hopefully the snow is soft, otherwise some butt pads might be in order. Rule #1 do. not. ever. put your hands out to try and catch yourself when you fall. ever. tuck n roll, or slide out always. umm, make sure your stance is wide enough, your feet are centered over the board, your boots are tied up snug. keep your knees bent for balance. holla @ me for more

[Dutchtacular]

@abstraktcs Haha thanks, I am really excited. Really love this video too though. Ill comment after I have been there :D

[TheMingTheory]

hey I just made my first gopro video on snowboarding. go ahead and check it out at my channel

[abstraktcs]

@TheMingTheory aaaahhh yeahh!! many more to come! 

[legogunguy001]

Can't wait to ride.

[gangbang859]

justbeast

[ItsTheEvilBurrito]

Hey, for the wrist point of view, do you use a wrist mount or some sort of handle, or do you just hold it with your hand?

[abstraktcs]

@ItsTheEvilBurrito handle!

[bedarda10]

Incredible, my skills with my Hero2 ( HumbleOutdoors ~$270 w/free 16GB SD card) do not hold a candle to you. Great work!

[abstraktcs]

@bedarda10 ahaha thanks dawg! I've just been practicing a bunch, that's all :P I used to build desktops before I was a snowboarder full time, so it's in my blood to dork out on all the tech stuff and figure it out

[Nutstep]

Sick man, you snowboard with a camera in your hand, that make it more difficult! Great work!

[BORISUNAMI]

The fact that ur holding the cam in one hand doing those lines is pretty amazing. Would love to see more of your jib skills...I'm sure they're legit. Ever think of doing some handrails while holding the cam? That would be an awesome point of view!!

[abstraktcs]

@BORISUNAMI I've thought about using it on some street stuff more, but when I'm doing that sort of riding, it's usually on a film trip and my filmers usually get super bummed when I'm handcamming stuff. All this handheld stuff is what I do on the side in addition to my main film projects. scope out the flow movie: Was Here at Flow dot com!

[Hockeyjock6000]

Song?

[abstraktcs]

@Hockeyjock6000 description!

[MDet1010]

@UltimateCODClipz You can get a helmet attachment for it. It won't break, plenty of people use the helmet attachment.

[Criptonic06]

Man this video is awsome !!! I just got my Go Pro HD 2 for x-mas and I already have 17g's of footy bout to make a snowboard video at the end of the season !! I dig the wrist mount angle I might pick one up Sick video

[abstraktcs]

@Criptonic06 wrist mount would be similar and easier to use, but I just have mine on a little handle! :P 17 gigs aint too bad of a stack!

[TheDudenotcool]

u shred awesome bro

[invizi0n]

Haha this video is awesome. 

[themeister1333222]

are you corking everysingle spin or is that the camera angle?

[abstraktcs]

@themeister1333222 I may be dunking them a little bit :P

[Prismadnb]

i'm dizzy

[gothbro111]

this makes me want to get wat better at snow boarding

[silvergeneration]

nice video, i plan on making a snowboard movie myself and have some questions:

can you tell me how you hold the camera, is it attached to your hand? how do you keep yourself in the shot?

[abstraktcs]

@silvergeneration little handle off the bottom, and I just try to hold my hand up and out as straight as possible. I usually just go out and try tons of different things, and take all the things that worked.  to put things in perspective, that handplant shot was the only one that was framed the way I wanted out of 20 attempts.

[Domii619]

THUMBS UP FOR SNOWBOARDING <3 

[abstraktcs]

@Domii619 I wish I could give this one more than 1 thumb up

[DreDilz415]

2:10 --> epic

[MartinVideos1]

HOW THE FUCK DID U GET 720P I ALWAYS GET FUCKING 420P ON MY YOUTUBE VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM THINKING OF SELLING THIS PIECE OF SHIT FOR HOW COMPLICATED IT IS!!!!

[abstraktcs]

@MartinVideos1 if you're getting --> 420 <-- p, then smoke some more weed until you get 480p. you're probably exporting the videos wrong out of your editor, or even transferring the footage wrong. when you transfer the footage, and when you make a final export, make sure the frame size is 1280x720 with square pixels. that should solve your problems. most editors default to some wack frame size when you export.

[skaterflip88]

How are you bindings positioned? duck footed?

[abstraktcs]

@skaterflip88 +15 on the front, -12 on the back, 23.5-24" wide, rotate my highbacks so they're more parallel with my heel edge, and I make sure that my heels and toes hang over evenly. That's pretty much all I do with my bindings.

[lalolalopop]

i really hope someday i will be really good so that i can ride with you

[jordanpearce1]

Thanks for the info well the board is new and I'm just wondering gunna hit the mountain like next weekend and do some flips and 360s

[lucasrus]

OMFG!!! This is awesome video!

P.S. Rider be careful! And good luck for ya ice man :)

[landonu12]

@UltimateCODClipz dont use the sticky helmet mount, it will break off very easily with the flex and cold, suction cup works longer and you can put it back on too, but for extra security use duct tape around the base of the sucker and a leash attached to your bindings :P

[grfauvelle]

This video rocks dude! Good job putting this one together :-)

[iloveparc]

badass video bro, were you just holding the cam or was it on something that you were holding?

[bedarda10]

Wish I was 21 again, I use my new Hero2 (HumbleOutdoors w/free 16GB card and great price), a the slopes in Vermont. You are on a different planet then me... cheers my friend...bravo!

[brohosumness]

I ski but this is sick

[Overlapsguitar]

Thats cash

[TheDominic223]

dope vid man i voted for you for snowboarder mags rider of the year, u killed it in the flow movie and have crazy good style.Love your vids and hope your season is dope!!!

[abstraktcs]

@TheDominic223 fuck yeah!!! thanks homey!!

[XoVoXoVKnigHTVoXoVoX]

@abstraktcs dude where are these places ur going to plz reply

[abstraktcs]

@XoVoXoVKnigHTVoXoVoX all sorts of places. Austria, Tahoe, Idaho, Mammoth, Colorado. Ya just gotta follow the weather and find the snow!

[XoVoXoVKnigHTVoXoVoX]

@abstraktcs nice dude, ur a beast lol no doubt about that and thx for the advice

[knutfinnjr]

badass vid man

[DirtriderNv]

Love your videos keep them coming!!!!!

[XxGOxPROxX]

@abstraktcs thanks bro. keep riding!

[LaughTactics]

@abstraktcs sick vid man

[abstraktcs]

@UltimateCODClipz They come with helmet mounts, so that would be pretty easy! I think on the front of the helmet looking down your front is the best hands free option. shred on homey!

[XxcrunxXx]

@abstraktcs hey i have a big question? i ski and have been skiing. i have wanted to snowboard for a while. I longboard so i thought that might help. Help?

[abstraktcs]

@XxcrunxXx hmmm, if you've been doing turns on a longboard down a hill, it's pretty similar. u know how you kinda set your weight over your back foot slightly, initiate turns w/ ur shoulders and let your body & legs follow, and use your toes/heels to lay down into the turn. stopping is like power sliding, but way less sketchy. I think you could pick it up easier than most. welcome to the dark side

[XxcrunxXx]

@abstraktcs ok thank you!!!!!!

[96jerrid]

flow fucking sucks balls you chicken wing

GNU is the best bitch p.s. your a chicken wing

[abstraktcs]

@96jerrid Cool story kid, save it for a party. u should spend more time on your board and less time talking shit on the internet.

[MrSupermariohoes]

@96jerrid lmao your videos fucking suck kid you and your faggot ass friends can hardly 50-50 on a 2 foot rail

[red0tape]

@96jerrid noob

[abstraktcs]

@red0tape LOL n00b :P kids got a loong way to go until hes thirteen thirty seven as fk like we are

[landonu12]

i was just listening to this song and thought of how perfect it would be for a snowboarding vid!! NICE! hahaha... darnit i cant use it now though...

[abstraktcs]

@landonu12 nah, you can still use it! I won't taze ya : )

[XxGOxPROxX]

@abstraktcs you sponsored bro? your sick! any tips on landing a backflip??

[abstraktcs]

@XxGOxPROxX :P I gots a few spons's Just don't twist when you do a backie. keep your board straight

[nixter911]

very good!

[XxGOxPROxX]

@Capitaaaaah im thinking about purchasing a grenade grip mount. do you know how well the company go pole is?

[abstraktcs]

@XxGOxPROxX no idea, sorry dawgg!

[Capitaaaaah]

Check out the gopole grenade grip - not sure what handle was used to film this but the grenade grip will give you the same POV

[thecat7222]

Hey, love this video. wondering what GoPro camera mount you're using...

Nice job on editing, looks really professional.

[abstraktcs]

@thecat7222 I just made a handle out of those black connector pieces that came in the box with my motorsports hero. Any sort of really short handle will do the trick! I've been trying to step my editing game up lately! stoked that you noticed :D

[luchiknux44]

@jordanpearce1 if you got a burton board with soloman bindings then that would be better

[abstraktcs]

@luchiknux44 ehhhh... Burton boards are nice because they make every single size and shape under the sun, but they allegedly use crappy epoxy and their shit breaks really easily. I used to snap around 6 a season when I rode for them way back

[jordanpearce1]

I just got a Solomon with Burton bindings does anyone have any ideas if that's good or bad

[abstraktcs]

@jordanpearce1 ehh, snowboard gear is all pretty good these days. Ride it as much as you can and decide for yourself if you like it or not. more importantly than the brand, is the board too stiff, is it too long or too short, is it wide enough, or do your heels and toes catch in the snow when you're trying to lay into a turn?.. do you like the way the bindings feel... don't get hung up on the names. I gotta tell ya that Flow is the shit tho :P

[PLKamil123]

in what program do you edited film?

[abstraktcs]

@PLKamil123 lots! GoPro Cineform, Final cut, after effects, some other ones too

[kutlo9]

[KC10Chief]

Amazing video! I love the music too!



[mrjazzysayz]

Dude...how do you not wear a helmet?! Haha, you're insane!!

[abstraktcs]

@mrjazzysayz I wear one occasionally. If I'm practicing, at a contest, or learning some new stuff. Usually not while I'm filming though. If I'm filming and I feel like I need a helmet, maybe I'm getting myself into something that I shouldn't be doing.

[westcoastjackass]

what is the name of this song???

[abstraktcs]

@westcoastjackass description

[westcoastjackass]

we need more vids like this on youtube :) thumbs up if you agree

[nicbrit93]

[Gopro851]

[beast555444333]

[HatersWillHate243]

Easely one of the coolest videos ever

[abstraktcs]

OMG YESSSSS!!!! lol got it

[abstraktcs]

omg omg omg so close to 100k views! :D

[WiNdBuRn1000]

@abstraktcs Did you just hold the camera or are you using a specific mount?

[abstraktcs]

@WiNdBuRn1000 nah just a little handle I made!

@PhilDesigns hmmm, i might have to try and get some head cams this winter :D

[olliedapuck]

@ljereb cab 9 my man!

[TriggoDaAmigo]

Where is the place from 0:08 - 0:15 ? It looks pretty amazing.

[abstraktcs]

@TriggoDaAmigo hintertux in austria. that was last october. It's best right before daylight savings time. after that, the park gets in the shade around noon and really cuts into your riding time

[TriggoDaAmigo]

@abstraktcs Awesome, thanks man! Keep up the sick videos. :D

[SparKysMusic]

Did you use the wrist housing???

[abstraktcs]

@PutAThumbInTheAir :D  I got lucky on that one turning out so well. It's one of my favorites from last winter for sure!

[MrStaecher69]

nice one! what program did u use for editing?

[<]

@MrStaecher69 all sorts of stuff. final cut, after effects, photoshop
