New rule for video Segmants..

I seems to me that in most ski movies they mix and match footage from movie to movie and with more than one rider hitting the same Bc booter or rail over and over. I think that there should be a new rule like in most snowboarding movies, Each rider should have his own booters and rails and no one else should hit these rails or jumps unless doing a better trick or in a different year of filming, this should apply to different park features as well and hand rails, just like in skateboarding and snowboarding, it gets soo boring watching the same jump set ups over an over no matter what trick is thrown down.. just my opinion we we wanna have totally original video parts in skiing this should come into effect..
 
theres no fun in sessioning somthing by you self though

and wat if 2 people find the same rail at the same time
 
Doesnt mean The skier and all his buddys cant hit it together but just film on skier on it its like biking lots of the pros ride together but they rarly ever hit the same jumps and gaps as the other pros
 
Ok! SO go and yell that at the movie makers. Or Send them each $100,000 to send them on 12 more Backcountry trips that winter, and 27 more urban sessions. Give $25 billion dollars to ski resorts to build more and more parks that they would need to get in order to have no repeat hits in a silly movie that maybe makes ski resorts 2% of their profit for that year.

Seriously sir, you are trying to set the bar for skiing movies way too high. And you specifically said this was a "New RULE for video Segments". Don't weezle your way out of this, you made a silly request.

A good idea, I too would like to see no repeats. It would be such a good thing. But atleast I know that it is entirely NOT possible.

Sorry for telling you this..
 
its possbile look at snowboarding you hardly ever see the same footage used over and over again. I know that its not possible to have 100% original footage even just limiting it to 2 riders hitting one booter, I just dont want to see the same shots over and over again in the same movies , they get boring.
 
i think what would be better if like snowboarding riders just stuck to one filming crew and filmed seriously with them the entire year without having any conflicts with filming for other people.
 
your pathetic. Hey every one lets go find out our own BC spots and film alone. sounds like quite the adventure. oh and when the avalanche comes ripping down it will be great relying on NO ONE to dig ourslves out. lets go ski alone...hell no.
 
your an idiot im talking about filming with other people dick head , but im talking about having indvidual booters for each person, that doesnt mean there on there own theres filmers an other people who would hit the booter but im talking about only using the footage from the best skier on that one booter then all the skiers have totally original shots, use your head dum ass its a statement to push indviduality. you talk about Avalanches do you actually know anything about big mountain riding? read the post properly before you talk shit, Im talking about not using the same fukin footage in every ski movie, and having totally original video parts.
 
i never thought this would happen, but i agree with you aussiepimp. Except for in two skier segments.
 
Have you ever built a BC booter before? Do you understand how much time goes into each setup, built by the riders? how many people would want to go build a big ass BC booter then not be able to hit it? Or lets say you only have 2 riders, how long it would take to build anything with that few people?

 
i bet a company with the best editors in the world ski and snowboard and hollywood could make a 30 minute on one feature with different parts of that feature and make it non boring and enjoyable
 
you are such an idiot, do u know how much time it would take to do that, it would make the movies shorter too cause it would take more skiing days to make the segments, this is such a stupid unrealistic idea
 
1st of if you put in enough effort, and have a good crew and only film with 1 film company consistantly for 5 months you can produce a totally Original Segmant, you dont know shit, do you film for movies?? are you out shooting on bc booters all the time traveling to comps ect? no end of story, once skiers start filming with 1 film company and putting 100% effort into there segmants then this will happen. The key to pushing skiing and making ski movies as good as snowboard videos is things like this.
 
There are alot of snowboard movies, where you see different riders hitting the same jump! Tell me one, where you think pretty much all the stuff is original, I don't thnk you'll find one.

And I sometimes really like it to see different riders hitting the same jump, or rail. I like to compare them. And I also like, when you see the progression on one bc booter. With what tricks they started, and finally what tricks they made after hitting it a few times.
 
Its not something that is 100% possible but its some thing to aspire to, its an idea that id like to see come more into play in ski movies..
 
You feel this thread is meaningful?

Oh, and pertaining to this thread-

Having the willpower to tackle such a task is a task in its own. But is it probable for most? I believe the answer is obvious.

The only way to make a rule is to do it yourself. Get to Work! Make a movie with your friends, and exclude them from using the shots on the jump they helped you build. Better yet, exclude yourself from using your own footage because your friend's was better. Hey! I wish you the best of luck.

Oh, and don't forget to NEVER crash.
 
I disagree

If well edited, a bucnh of people hitting the set-ups can be cool to watch. The best example is Community Project where most of the segments are session and one of the best ski/snowboard movies off all time(In my opinion)

What sucks is different companies having the same shot of the same guy on the same jump in to different movies. Like Jon Olsson seg in X and not another ski movie.

Although i do get your point in way case the thing i hated the most about tbc were to same jumps all over the movie with the same freaking angles.

 
you are retarted, look at one love for example, theres a down rail in it, that almost 5 riders hit, and have it in there segment. It didn't really bother me either. Ur idea is absolutely rediculous, and ur wrong to say snowboard movies do it completely, they jsut mix it up a bit more.
 
that is called a segmented movie my friend and people make them but it gets boring watching the same person over and over so they mix it up and have multapul people in each segment
 
I don't think this thread is very meaningful... how did you formulate that idea?

What you wrote didn't have anything to do with the thread... Thats why I said it pertained nothing to the thread.

 
If you want movies to be half the time and half the footage as usuall then you can make your movies that way. But I like to see what each skier does differently then the others. That is the individuality in it is seeing what each of them does.
 
or just have everyone in the group hit it and whoever throws the sickest shit gets his shots in the movie.
 
you know, most people watch movies to see the tricks done, they dont look at the booters or rails, its whats happening on these features thats cool!
 
that would just be a big pain in the ass for filmers and the last time i checked i saw more than one diff snowborder do a jump or rail in the same movie
 
i came to the conclusion that this forum is full of jacka$$es. he has a good point, some movies repitition gets old. he is not saying only only rder hit it. he is saying not use the same footy of a bunch of riders doing the same trick. TGR seems to do a good job with this. last years movies had a great session of pyramid gap, same jump but not the same tricks or shot angle. Where other movie companies repeat the same jump over and over again. Take the hit list for example. great movie but alot of repition.

before you go rippin apart somebody think of a good arguement. posting "thats stupid, your retarted helps nothing." its a good idea in theory, it will never work, but the closer we get, then better movies become.

well, i like to see how different people use different features. urban for instance, some people may switch up, some may spin on and some may just ooze with style. i would like to see all not just one. so, i vote no on this rule.
 
so pretty much all the utah gaps are out of the question, you know since kris ostness was hitting those years ago. hmmm, maybe movie companies should just level a mountain when they arrive to film and just rebuild it differently, before they do any shooting with their rider. rider is not a typo, since only one rider can be seen on that mountain, or else it will get very boring and repetitive
 
sorry about the rant. and i do see your point, and love to see new gaps and jumps, rails etc... discovered and pioneered. but i also love to see old jumps redone, pushing the envelope even farther. because if every jump could only be sessioned once, we'd never have seen tanner switch 9 chads, we'd just be watching old footie of candide d-spinning
 
Ya i totally see what youre saying and i think it be sick if it was easy to do, but the differnece with skateboarding is that its pretty much in season 365days out of the year most places, almost every thing they hit is 'natural' or they dont have to spend time making it. With skiing and backcountry jumps it takes days to prepare and session one jump and there just isnt enough time.
