cool looking tricks, but everything was too small and a little too sketch for sponsorship.

The interview was not necessary, let your skiing speak for itself

keep working on those though, I haven't seen stuff done like that before (similar, Andy Parry style, but not the same way you do them)

Nice boxes, but I didn't see one jump, pipe hit, hip hit, cliff drop, pow shot, or switch take off at all. And yes, the interview was unnecessary. It is quite obvious that no-one else is doing the same box tricks as you. And if you're concerned about individuality, drop the gangstarr, its overused.

I didn't pick the music and that was 2 days of filming and not all of the footage from those 2 days, I'm saving my best stuff for superunknown, and the mountain I ski at didn't have a jump worth hitting until last week, so jump footy will be appearing in the future.

Well, if you can do stuff as original and as good as on those boxes on jumps, then you probably have a shot at getting a sponsor.

shut up and let your skiing talk. what your gunna want to do is put together a few minute video of you killin it. you need jumps nobodys going to sponser you unless you can do it all. take shots on bright sunny days if you can. 

props on those box tricks.... never seen anything like that, it will def. help you get sponsered, good luck.

I won't lie I've always thought wierd rollerblading style rail slides were gay, but those were sick.  Find some bigger features to film, hopefully you've got jumping skills and some company like line might just hook you up

I'm not a fan of  what  these weird manoeuvers looks like but yea looked that  you were having fun doing them so keep on pushing it.

 I might try something like these things and see if they are fun, I,ll prolly end up hurting myself.

To all of you who want to try these, learn 1 foot grinds first, these grinds take alot of balance.

And to the people who think I'm a rollerblader, I'm not I rollerblader, I fruitbooted for 1 week 2 years ago.  THESE ARE SKI GRINDS, these are 100% new, not done on rollerblades ever, grinds.

props to Andy Parry for inventing the bindsould and brightside, the next edit will include my new grinds not just the ones I stole from Andy.

creative

I dont really I like it but I'd probably do the same shit if I lived in the east and it never snowed

I think that its not put together enough for a sponsorship, spend more time on it and have more all around type stuff, but they may see potential in all that twisty spinny one foot stuff

Thats not quite a "Sponsor Me" but its getting new grinds to the masses. Keep up the new grinds to help push skiing and open up a whole new territory. By the way for a sponsor me you need some jumps and things like that to catch the eye of the sponsorer...

I really enjoyed the originality and innovation.  I could see more people doing stuff like this.  But yes, some tricks were used in the I ski NY video thing.
