Check this edit my buddy made, inspired by J.P in All I Can.  We shot  and built it all in one night, hence the weak trick selection and poor lighting,  But if you have thoughts, let me know!

work on your focus pulls, it doesnt make sense to pull focus to just end up out of focus

That was pretty neat. Looked like fun.
The stabilized shots looked great, the ones that weren't were pretty rough though

gah hit reply by accident,

only other critiques are lighting obviously but that can only change by septupling the effort put in and to go to a steeper town where you can get enough speed to make your jumps haha.

given what you had to work with I was very impressed, twas pre swift

I would of just shot the jumps with out the car follow. I realize that was a major part to that segment but its decently hard to get it to flow like it did

I liked it, i'd just say a 2 minute intro is pretty long and try more angles i felt like they were all very similar.

I think that the intro was way too long, the followcam shots were way too shakey. It looked like a blast though.

Pretty shaky filming needs from tricks not just straight airs. Otherwise pretty solid edit

I enjoyed it, and it seems like all my criticisms have already been brought up.
The song fit really well, which is always important. The intro was pretty long, but that's understandable because getting a lot of decent ski shots looked difficult. I think one of the strongest points of the edit was the shots of day fading into night.
I'm glad your friend finally got the backflip, it was a nice conclusion.
