casualI totally disagree with you

dope

jackdonovanWell, if the idea is to make the place look attractive to potential customers, also known as campers, then it would be great to show them campers and how good they are and how much fun they are having and make them want to go to camp, instead of just showing pros who they already know are good.

I see where you're coming from and I completely agree. I would love to see more camper edits from camps.

However when I went to Woodward for the first time when I was like 9, I didn't care how much I was gonna learn. I think I cared more about like who was gonna be there and I wanted to see/ train with some of the bet gymnasts at the time.

I think this kind of thing varies from person to person. But when your 9-13(which is how old most campers are) riding with pros means a shit ton. At least that's how I looked at it when I was younger. Maybe I'm wrong?

I defintely see what you mean, but i went to Windells when i was 14 so I still wanted to meet pros, but the reason i went there was because i wanted to learn more and wasnt really fanboying over pros, plus Keefer was my coach and at video review we shared cabins with Fostfed and Steve Stunt so i met some pros.

Yeah true true. It depends on the person. Some people just wanna ski and have a good time. Some people will fan girl. Others are trying to be the next Tom Wallisch.

They're one of the most successful ski camps so they must be doing something right with their promo videos. I do think they should put together camper edits though. Even if it's just for those who went, it's cool to see yourself on film and in edits. It would be a thing that would factor into kids coming back each year too.

more of you should be mad about the drug testing.

L_Bmore of you should be mad about the drug testing.

Yeah I guess we're not gonna get a sweet trollin windells episode this summer then

i mean, more than that, a lot of good people smoke weed, especially living at Mt.Hood in the summer. A lot of people I would want my kid to be around, especially considering it's legal status and its future. I wouldn't want them smoking with or in front of my kid, but seeing the stoner skier culture is part of the reason I would want my kid to be at Windells in the first place.

Just seems very shortsighted of them to right off such a large portion of their potential coaches.

*praying to embed gods*

This edit was dope, had a good mix of campers and pros and was an overall dope edit, embed for anyone who hasnt seen it yet

I asked a few people about it and I really liked Colby Albino's response... I don't remember it all word for word but the general point was that it's about how bad you want to work there. If you want the job enough then you quit 30 days before the drug test. If you can't do that then you must not want the job that bad. Windells is going to hire people that really are passionate about working for them. If you can't make an adjustment in your life to do that, then Windells would rather hire other people anyways.

And I get that it's about earning a coveted job, but i don't want my kid learning from a square rule following try-hard at summer camp. They get that in school every day already.

I mean, some people just don't like smoking weed, an that makes them a square rule following try-hard?

Momentum did it pretty well

ah yes, because that's the only way they can see if their coaches really want to work for them or not.

that's such a shitty argument. and it's in a state where growing, possessing, and smoking marijuana is legal. an employer doesn't care if you go home after work and have a beer, why would they care if you smoked a joint?

danbrown"coveted job" lol

lol for many 20-27 year old ski bums it is.

Its true they are not paying to be in the videos and its true a lot of the campers cant throw down but a lot can so there should be a camper edit every other session in addition to the pro session edit that way pro vids advertise shitty campers feel good and good campers get a little recognition

As a marketing strategy mixing kids in would be a good idea but as someone, who probably is already sold on the camp I think the edits are best with the pros, they can just throw such better tricks and lines.
