First edit critique? +k

So, i shot this way back in the winter but was unable to edit any of it because my laptop at the time couldn't handle any of the footage, but i have now upgraded to a mbp and so have taken a shot at it.

Shooting this taught me a lot i think, especially on a filming level. so the things that stand out to me that i need to improve on is shot variation (i felt like the edit got a little boring) and obviously a better from of stabilisation would be greatly useful.

So any other advice would be much appreciated.

1.) props to you for making an edit
2.) I overall liked it, music wasn't really my thing, but thats personal choice and you need to choose the stuff you like to listen too
3.) try not to cut off the heads/upper body parts of the people. Makes it look kinda weird in my opinion.

I'm not sure if it was the stabilization or what, but it looked really choppy throughout. Were you filming 24p perhaps? Go up to at least 30 for skiing

yeah i think i might have been. since then i have pretty much started shooting in 50fps only, mainly because i want to be able to use slowmo when i want to, if that makes sense...
