Where base jumping is going in ski movies..

personally i thought it was pretty cool in focused to see some guys rip out on the base jumping with skis, but when the segment starts to get 5-10 minutes long it getting boring. The progression of "base jumping" was made when you put skis on to ski a line that you coudnt do otehrwise, and fly down. But otehr then that, where is the progression after that? jumping without a chute?
dreblit?

yeh a lot of the shots in yearbook were just the cliff and no cool line above, it was impressive, but they were saying they do it to ski the cool lines no one can ski

yeah i thought yearbook overdid the base jumping thing, it was like sick skiing then like 20-25 minutes of seemingly identical base jumps (except the iger) then back to sick skiing, i didnt need the rbeak in the middle

Ski basing would be fun to do, but its not fun to watch. I think the progression of ski basing will be like pierre (chuteless)

the only reason it is sooo long it is because it is Matchstick's money maker skier Shane Mcconky, i am sure i spelt his name wrong. Yes it was too long, but it is just nuts to do, like the warren miller movies.

BASE jumping does not belong in SKIING movies.
its like watching a skate movie with random bungee jumping-
who does that?

it was definitely way over done. I think its like helmet cam, a whole segment of it would really be boring. its hard to see the progression of it except maybe bigger cliffs or skiing in faster to the cliff or doing off axis spins to chutes. I think it is a lot harder then people say it is though. I mean if you ski a line before you jump, you cant fall cause if you roll over the cliff your chute doesnt open right and you die. Plus you need to know when you open the chute and how to take off right. im hoping less of it is in future movies.

20-25 minute segments on ski-basing would be sweet if they were in the special features section.

ski bas is cool if it allows you to access un accessable lines, like in the tgr trailer..actually watching them parachute sucks donkey dick
no ones as good as me, they just got better marketing schemes

i think its pretty sick and what they need to start doing is finding what would be really good full lines except there is a huge drop inthe middle. so then they can ski the top half, hit the cliff, 'chute down to the second half, let the chute go and keep skiing

it blows when they only show the cliff. it defeats the purpose. cliff jumping with a parachute serves a purpose. to ski the dopest line you can find that has one problem: a massive cliff at the end
