    That made me feel like I was drowning and intermittently popping up for air. But in a good way.

    i was back there the same day, rediculous. My footage is a page back. Looks like you guys were a bit further back and up than we were and it looks deeper, which i didn't think was possible that day.
    More fucked up than a cricket in a hubcap

    Nice work putting that together.
    Pro skiers look like a bag of skittles.

    Looks like a ton of fun, similar to how EV was skiing on Monday. Take it or leave it, but I got a little sick of all the stomach shots. I'm sure you wanted to convey how deep it was, but the stoke is a lot more enjoyable to watch when it's shot from the helmet.

    I was out at VP Saturday. More than my fair share of shot ski equivalents kept me out of commission on Sunday... apparently I f***d up!

    Nice edit! It's my first year sled skiing and vids like this make me wanna keep exploring!

    Sickest chest mount ever. Full screen on the 40" felt like I was skiing.

    nice work, I understand the chest mount, don't always love it too.... but this was pretty good. ease up on the slomo, but overall very well done!

    formerly an ambassador for a few others, but the ski industry is... interesting.

    Thanks for the props and the suggestions.

    I totally get the chest mount comments, but on big powder days I'm worried to use the helmet mount. I've already had a helmet mount snap off once and until I can figure out a leash system, it's got to stay on the chest when hucking in pow. Not trying to make it look deeper, I just don't want to lose it again.
    go upside down.
