so i just finished an edit for the year, it doesn't have a of footage cause my camera was stolen, and then i was out for 11 weeks with a broken collar bone, but i put it together anyways. any critique would be great, ++ karma for sure. and if anyone has sponsorship tips that'd be great. i have some good competition results to go with this, but never know how to go about sponsorships. thanks a bunch NS.

nice lines, decent style w/ jumps, try to mix it up a little more, and find someone with a steady hand to film it.

+:Great tricks, smooth style
Good diversity in filming areas
great powder lines
-:some footage was shaky and blurry (because of fog)
close up powder shots were poor, you looked out of control
Avoid age and were you live on a promotion. Leave that on the resume
Avoid showing crashes, and especially injuries
Show more "fun", you have the skills, but are you sociable and able to step out and show of the sponsored material.
Otherwise, I love it

yea that was good i was really impressed. you had some real nice lines and drops in there. id throw in more rails and urbans because i know you can do them well. you got dem rodeos and dem mutes down perfect. also i liked your lincolns off those drops. the filming was a little shaky but didnt make that much of a difference. overall good work

IMHO i would you say BC is your thing, if you wanted to diversify a bit more i would say include more rails urban box stuff, cause hey you may have the talent but i didnt see to much of it. BC though you kill it, keep shredding those lines, i can tell you love the pow drops. Anyways that a simple critique , sucks about your camera, i'm sure it would have had a bit less shakyness to it, but well done man, you have some skills.

that was really good, i think for sponsership you might want more rails but i personally really liked your BC stuff and i think you should focus on taking some more off your park tricks to the backcountry GOOOD JOB!!!

Camera quality wasn't brilliant, sucks about your collar bone and camera though
apart from that, the skiing was awsome, you've got a great bag of tricks. Very well done

bc shit was tight...i didn't get a chance to look at the final one just the first rough one...but i noticed you spelled nevertheless wrong (NEVERTHLESS is how you did it) not trying to be your english teacher but should be as professional as possible if sending to sponsors
but definately more rails besides that you killed it man!

Liked how you switched from Park to Backcountry throughout the whole edit, kept me interested. The only thing i noticed that could be improved were the visibility on some of the night shots, and shaky camera. Everything else was pretty dope.
