It was alright. I liked the text choice, and the skiing was good.
I understand what you're going for with the first shot and the spin transition, but half of the effect of that is having the next half of the spin to introduce the next shot, if that makes any sense. It's redundant if it's not there.
Also, I would learn how to use your histogram, and watch out for blowing out the snow. A lot of that seemed overexposed.

2 things really stood out with me:
1. In the first line shots you increase the speed in between hits. Though this is totally acceptable.. you want to incorporate this with the music as much as possible. If not it appears really unnatural. Also, it is at a slightly awkward speed. If you are going to speed it up make it slightly more abrupt. By making this faster it kind of turns it more into a transition synced with music than an obvious way to speed through the skiing section.
2. In the jump section you cut the audio in and out. I would just keep it out. Though the sound of a stomp is nice I mostly just hear the wind when you bring it in. Leave it silent and it is fine!
Hope that helps!

I thought it was rad! I think the addition of some various b-role shot would add a bit of a more unique feel to it.. and make it less like a standard ski edit. I'm not sure if this makes sense.. I'm more trying to say that you should add something into to shots/edit to make it more unique to you.
I really liked the edit! A couple things:
1. I would throw in some different angles just to entertain the viewer a bit more
2. Add some slo-mo. You had some good shots with the jumps, but you could add some slow motion to make them real sick
3. Cut out the wind. I'm not sure what effect you were trying to achieve (stomping sound?) but I find the wind in the mic a bit annoying...
Good work!
