in the couple days leading up to orage, pep fujas brought park filming to a whole new level.

hitting a jump switch is one thing, landing switch is another, we all know zeros are tough...but doing them with a camera in hand and without looking to spot the landing, thats just insane. can't wait to see how it turned out.
 
my buddy and i did it at mount snow this season. it was almost disasterous, cause he was filming and went off the very corner of the jump. i thought he was gonna die and freaked out in the air. the angle was sweet, it was just ugly as shit.
 
that looked tight...they should have cut it a bit sooner though it would a looked better. what song is that?
 
I hate when people call a zero spin, a switch zero spin. wouldn't a switch zero spin be a straight air? you don't call straight airs zero spins. and yeah... we used to do something similar, but we'd just go off normal, but hold the camera facing backwards. it was sorta cool, because sometimes you's see the camera mans shoulder... or the string from his hat, etc. and the other skier wuld just pop up outta nowhere.
 
^yeah i was going to post about that. a zero spin is fakie to fakie, maybe a shifty thrown in. but switch zero spin would be straight air. so... yeah.
 
Even Sigstad from fieldproductions does zerospin filming like no other. I've seen him done it on large step downs!
 
you got the point, didnt you??? honestly, you kids have too much hate.

and to answer your question, no, you wouldnt call a straight air a switch zero. you'd call it a straight air, because thats what it is.
 
eric pollard did zeros while filming mike wilson like 2 years ago at windells. theres a pic of it somewhere
 
eric pollard could film an ace shot with his right testical because hes god, but hes to good to be wasted as a camerman he should be filmed doing zeros not filming doing zeros
 
If anyone was at june mountain during the 2004-2005 season, you would have seen some norweign guys doing zero spins on Gunsmoke. We are talking jumps well bigger than the mammoth money booter. They are actually on this site...and have a sweet sweet edit...i just can't remember the name. If you look in the edit, the angle just blows you away, so amazing. If anyone can think of the name of the movie, please tell!
