    He shoulda been in Faces in the Crowd for bowling. He held it down for L1P in Dillon.

    STOP POSTING MOVIE SEGMENTS ON YOUTUBE

    I may be the NOOB here, but do you have any clue? You think the crew at MSP is rolling in money? Maybe they get the most sponsorship dollars (maybe they don't) and maybe they sell the most vids, but they put that cash into making the movies, not their pockets. What does it cost to shoot rails...

    Who will be the next Seth Morrison?

    Let's see. Out of a hundred or so options, Morrison Hotel in Bella Coola, BC comes to mind (SM3:The Front Line I think). Huge, spiny and a gnarly first decent. Since then I believe two people have died trying it (I know at least one snowboarder did). Pretty impressive for a guy who can only...

    Who will be the next Seth Morrison?

    Well said. As much as local rippers at ski areas may be able to shred certain terrain and impress you in person, there's another level to guys like Seth and Hugo, and I'm on the verge of throwing Eric Hjorleifson in there. Hugo can ski lines faster than anyone I've personally seen, and his...

    The Train Gap

    Let's just say it's east of Cisco Grove, but west of Donner Summit. I was just thinking about that train jump the other day. It's still one of the sickest things I've seen, only because there was no way to speed check it. The in-run was a trough dug into the snow, but not wide enough so you...

    Robb Gaffney

    Hell yeah. I never saw this thread. Scott does all the sick stuff in that segment--he even wore Robb's clothes to stunt double for him. Wow. Five years old...

    Peter Olenick's Double Flat in pipe...

    Thirded. I think it's doper to call a trick a double flatspin rather than double lincoln or backflip to flare, but I don't see the flatspin rotation at all. That being said, I watched in person as he first attempted them and stomped a couple and Breck, and they are sick as hell. But unless a...

    Stop the double

    Olenick's double in the Breck pipe yesterday was sick, scary and dangerous. When he ate shit a couple times, it was impressive. When he stomped it a couple times, it was even more impressive. Not just clean, but ballsy as hell.

    Evan Raps

    He's going to school for physical therapy (because he got a ton of it with something like 11 knee surgeries) and is ski instructing at Squaw. Sounds crazy but true. Not a freestyle team, no special clinics, just instructing.

    Level 1 straight up copying MSP

    It's cool you like Push, but come on, man, are you kidding? Copied the Community Project intro? Exactly? There's a bike in a neighborhood and the similarity ends there. Next thing you know, it's illegal to show someone scoping a rail before they slide it, or speed check a jump, because it'll...

    Level 1 straight up copying MSP

    I want to make sure in all this that I'm not ripping on Berman at all. I like Berman and I think he's got talent, both in shooting and putting films together. It's his Jihad followers who endlessly lay into Matchstick on the most trivial of issues--and often throw out completely false...

    Level 1 straight up copying MSP

    That's the point. So Level 1 chose the same angle at the same ski area. Does MSP care? Hell no. It's a freaking camera angle on a basic table top. Like I said in the other thread, with that kind of angle, it doesn't even matter where the jump is. It could be just as easily in Wisconsin as...

    Level 1 straight up copying MSP

    That is actually funny. But you can bet Berman watched it.

    Level 1 straight up copying MSP

    I agree that Vanular is sick. He'll kill it on any shoot. The point was Matt Walker came up with another reason to bitch about MSP, when in reality, the exact opposite thing had been done. I obviously don't spend a lot of time here--I'd rather be about having fun than sitting around here...

    MSP straight up copying Level 1

    Four words: Wrong. From a crane.

    MSP straight up copying Level 1

    I'll add that sometimes the angle and the specific jump matters if someone is blatantly trying to copy someone's unique efforts. That's lame. But right now, everyone's in Summit County because that's where the parks are. Keystone is going to offer up that angle to whatever film crew has the...

    MSP straight up copying Level 1

    Does anyone realize that any crane shot looking straight down on top of a jump is going to basically look the same whether it's at Keystone, Whistler, Mammoth, Norway, Switzerland, New Zealand or anywhere in the world? It's not about what jump it is, it's about the trick and capturing it in the...

    Level 1 straight up copying MSP

    Two years ago, in Hit List, MSP shot a basic Keystone table from a crane directly overhead, getting shots of Sarah Burke and Bushfield at night. Then along comes Level 1 a year later. What do they do? They shoot a Keystone table from the SAME crane, blatantly ripping off MSP!!!! OH MY GOD...
