Dude! sick!! how did you make your stick?

[hindelicous]

@HOMExSKILLET it's an old leki probe pole with the GO Pro tripod mount...works great with using only 2 of the 3 sections

Why do you have that iceaxe? Where you near an edge or something?

[hindelicous]

@NJditt i ride with an ice axe when there is the possible need for a self-arrest in various terrain. Some of these chutes have large (deadly) cliffs below, thus i need to have the option of stopping my self in the event of a sluff, slide or tumble. An Iceaxe/whippet is standard protocol for ski/boarding mountaineering. It's nice for sketchy traverses and approaches as well.

hope you get this in a film festival or something. an all time favorite for sure. love the way the red coat morphs into the black coat on the second face shot. i recognoze quite a few chutes, but one almost looks a bit down valley with the trees and rocks?

@igikpakmax  the camera is a gopro hd hero that doesn't have any image stablization...takes a little practice to keep still and smooth powder helps with that

@hindelicous Thanks for response and good luck with this season of snowboarding. :D

@KinematicsFX sorry for the delay. I've been doing a lot of fine tuning and tweaking to make it ready for it's official "World Premiere" at the Free bear creek..again gathering at telluride's Sheridan Opera House this thurs. I will have it up on you tube tonight or tomorrow and will put it up on vimeo in HD after the showing on thurs. Each video seems to take me exponentially longer to edit..and i had a lot of great footage to skim through for this one. thanx for showing interest.

@hindelicous where's that video? :)

[TheJeremydingeman]

@Fastcheetah9 motion is seen in the background...it helps to have soft snow and a steady hand. new video of the entire season will be online within the week.
