USC Ski & Snowboard - Airtime with Abe Kislevitz

This is every shot I filmed during the 2009-2010 season while traveling through the air. Shots are in chronological order from November to June.

Video shot entirely on the GoPro HD camera

Song: Ministry of Sound - Strings of Life (Danny Krivit re-edit)

See if you can spot all the different guest stars! Randy Ewing, Chris Farro, Matt Cook, Tom Wallisch, Charles Evans, Ben Gunton, Chris Nelson, Finn Anderson, David Ortlieb, Mike Leighton, Sean Trotter, Robby Thorpe, Caleb Farro & more!

Fun Facts!
2:33 - Suffered a heel injury which stopped me from jumping from January - March
4:13 - Matt Cook catching an edge and going downnn
3:02 - Chris Farro double back - remember Matt Cook's double back? Chris did one the same day into a kang flip on the next jump but I messed the shot up. Matt got all the credit for that one :)

how big are most of the jumps here?? im getting pumped for my second season freestyle. the biggest jump where i go is like 50 feet and im so scared to spin off of it. any advice?

[abekislevitz]

@PuppyEatter01 Mammoth has some big jumps, but most of these are 30-50 feet. Spinning over big jumps is actually much easier I find. you have way more time to get the rotation, spot your landing, and stomp the trick! Just take off with much less initial rotation, keep your head over your shoulder and spot your landing!

I have two things to say:

1. There's a video on Tim Humphreys channel that looks like you might be in, the title of it is "525 East - 2010 Mt Snow Dew Tour Snowboarding Slopestyle Finals", and the link to it is youtubeOcom/watch?v=MQhQDWLWM1­A, of course with the period replaced as an O. It appears you make a cameo at 0:13 of that video. Is that you?

2. The song of this video reminds me of the song played when getting in the top 4 places in Mario Kart 64.

[16siwel]

[GoProVB]

Soooo did he land the tricks or not?

[sebleton]

You were the one that filmed tom wallish! that was one of my favourite ski videos for a long time and i never knew

[kafutunga]

How many hours of video do you have? It seems as if you have a lifetime of it.

[halldoratla]

this channel is by far my favorite one right now

[sapeux]

great video but how to film backwards when jumping? do you actually ski backwards or do you just turn the camera stick backwards? cheers
