the skiings great as always. not trying to hate but i just get really bored. every trick looks kinda the same, and all the camera angles are kinda the same too. it just feels like your watching the same thing over and over. i got bored real fast.

nice. I dont really like the flashes of white and black. They are kinda random and to long.

i dont know if this will help, but in my opinion the second part of the edit was way stronger than the first part. my suggestion would to take out the first part, but incorporate the sickest shots like the longass urban in to the second song.

but seriously you are a sick skier

dope skiing.  yea it kinds got boring, but the skiing was ill.  some lifestyle could make it better for sure, and maybe some more rythm.

i would say dont put so many of the same tricks in there.... i think i saw 5 or 6 switch 7s....... just pick your best 2 in there and try to shorten the edit

I agree with all these comments, everyone develops their own editing style which you're doing well but its important to pick your shots wisely, short and powerful is usually better than long and repetative. I'd say if you could cut that in half, you could have a super dope edit where every shot was just DAMN. DAMN. DAMN.

You're a good skier, but i really stopped watching in the middle. It just didn't flow really i thought, and it was just jumpy and too much slow mo (like on rails, don't slow mo on rails).

the skiing was great, but towards the end there was some shaky shots, one of the shots being those back to back sw 7's (i think thats what the tricks were).
^ and i agree w/ evan on the rails, no slo-mo.

and what AOTP song is that?

sick skiing, although I didn't watch the whole thing it got a little boring. I think it just didn't flow, like at some parts you over edited it. Keep it up though.

this wasnt one of the edits i would watch over and over. no disrespect the skiing is amazing just keep looking over it and make it flow as well as you can. also put in some filler shots and time lapses those are always nice

haha it was one of the few edits I really liked. a few shots could be cut, but yeah I dig your style. surprising that you didn't do more pretzels, although on that one it looks like you had it dialed.

Good, but the flashes during the half-pipe bit were a bit too long (the black flashes). Otherwise it was good.

Also, take out the rewind-replay thing. I hate those it makes it look lame and cheesy. Slow-mo is ok on your bigger jumps so people can really see the trick well, but like evan said, keep it off the rails.

dont use bad songs, try and find one that fits better with your skiing.
take out some of the repeated shots and only use your top top favorite shots.

just filter out the b footy homie, less rightside stuff so its less outa balance with your leftside stuff(cab 7s for example, lotsa right ones only one left one)

Your skiing is sick but your friend seriously fucking sucks at doing the follow cam. Pick a new song as well, that outerspace song is rather annoying.

insane skiing, good cam angles, but i do think u should add sum shots of not actual tricks but like "the mountains on a bluebird day" or "the chairlift as its goin up" jus to give it more of a real seg feel to it

the angles on the jumps in the begining of the edit is kinda beat, cuz the jumps and tricks your throwing are much bigger they look. Change the angles up or the cut them out because it is a log edit

i would try to stick to one song if at all possible, unless you get board with one. But otherwise try to stick to one song. Personally that is the way that i feel about edits with more than one song...You slay, at skiing.
