Wow, we were saying in a thread not long ago we need more creativity in skiing and jibbing in particular, the japs beat us to it.

The company of the first video is Muddy Films I think, and this is their site:
If you click Muddy Shop it takes you to where you can order their shit which I tried to do but I can't read Japanese so I failed.

The company in the second video is Mighty Jamming.
Their movie from this year is called Think Piece. The video posted in this thread of mighty jamming was the trailer for last years movie.

^^nice dude thanks for links... think piece is sick

its wierd how more cross contact between U.S. and japanese freeskiing scenes isn't promoted on this site considering their movies are progressing really quickly. Maybe NS should set up an interview with some skiers from over there.

I agree an interview would be super sick. Or for NS to sell Safari and Think Piece in their store.

man so glad I clicked this.  those damn japs beat us to it.  I wonder if all japanese skiers dont use poles?  I bet they dont because of rollerblading influences. 

anyways this is the future of skiing that was so sick.

That was so sick, butter 270 on was nice, I haven't thought of that.  Tree tap was sick!  Urban in Japan would be unreal, too bad this movie is $40 + shipping.

japanese skiers are so sick...so many guys over there we've never heard of that put to shame a lot of well known north american and european riders (in my opinion at least). last year I was friends with a bunch of japenese exchange students who came here (UBC) for a year, they showed me some of their japanese videos (they were Volume-style edit/documentary things), soo unbelieveable.

Yeah they do. In fact they have hundreds.

On a side note I am going to be skiing there in t-minus one week. I am def. going to buy a few DVDs over there. I posted some links awhile back with some Japanese skiers just killing it. When I find them I will post them up on this thread.

Send me some money and I might buy you a DVD, haha.
