First off you killed it this year Brad. Second off, I would say take out most of if not all of the fall shots. Maybe have like 1 shot of a fall before you stomp that trick, but for the most part leave out falls cus sponsors don't need to see it and it's not really going to benefit you in any way. Also make sure you don't have many repeat shots. For example, if you have 5 really good k-fed shots, take the best 1 or two and use those. Overall sick skiing though!!!

dude, you have some major skills. nice job. i agree with this guy though^. and follow cam shots are always fun. editing is not easy. my dad is a professional producer and whenever i try to use his equipment to throw something together, it is tough stuff. it takes a lot of creativity. but to me it seems like you are doing a good job and it will only improve as you learn some more tricks (in editing). so just keep at it and watch a variety of ski videos to get inspiration.

what a lot of people don't always understand is that the editing is easier to do and looks better the better the shots are. By getting a variety of angles, some artsy/creative shots, and make sure the shots are steady by using a tripod for some shots or trying hard to keep it steady with your hand, the editing will flow much better.

What I like to do is to watch other edits that are put together real nice and sort of analyze what editing tricks they are doing. Just in general, pick apart their edit and see what they are doing that catches your eye and helps make the edit good.

I was also just watching your other videos on vimeo... what is the name of the song you used in your Jib Academy 2 edit?

your killin it thats for sure and Im glad this wasnt a terrible season edit that got posted in ski gabber otherwise i would have yelled at you and said take it to the vids section. BUT that was real sick.

yea take out some of the repetitive shots id say and some falls. but i almost think its good to keep the shot of the fall on your double jus so companies can see your at that level and pushing yourself to do a variety of things.

keep it up dog!
