Raceboarding Girls at Hintertux

A lot of racing teams train at glaciers before the snow falls at lower altitudes. In December I met a couple of young women at Hintertux in the Austrian Alps, from a Dutch snowboard racing team. They rode nice Kessler boards with race plates, if I remember. Here's the best extreme carving footage! (it's a coed team, but most of the shots are from the two girls I met early in the day).

The shutter speed was a bit slow, that's why there are some seconds where it goes fuzzy (even after stabilization with VirtualDub and Deshaker).

Avisynth => Vdub => deshaker (2 passes) => XviD => Pinnacle Studio 14 => mpg2 (whew)

Love the video. Am just starting to experiment with deshaker/virtualdub, after trying to edit some nausea-inducing HDV snowboarding footage (Strangely DV from the same camera and others seems to work Ok with the Optical stabilisation inthe camera, plus some in my arm! :-)). Can I ask, if you are using the HF200, you either get AVCHD or .m2t files, right? what is your workflow to get them through de-shaker?

thanks - a fellow snowboarding filming enthusiast!
