According to Finn, he had some good jump shots, but Berman was trying to make a shorter movie, with less riders, to keep your attention the whole time. I haven't seen Finn's shots, so I can't say if that was a good call or not, but once I do, I will decide one way or another. Finn's shots will be in Lucky 87's movie this year, whenever that gets produced.

yeah man, his airs in Strike 3 are super sick and he explains his forward segment in another thread. A basic summary of what he says is that he can indeed do airs, he's not simply a jibber and anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about and can go to hell.

wowwww my own thread. wooo i'm excited fellas

we found out around the beginning of last year that i am allergic to air. basically the doctor said the bigger air i get, the more likely i am to break out into a rash and go into colvusions while foaming at the mouth. this is why i have no jumpshots in bermans movie.

or wait, maybe it was a mix of me spending too much time skiing and too little time filming, snd that berman just doesn't like me to have well rounded sections because my jump footage isn't from either a superpark jump ar some ridiculous backcountry jump, just those no good 50 and 60 foot park jumps, you know, the ones that NOBODY (hint sarcasm) would ever even think of putting into a ski movie


ah well, sorry guys my section in forward was kind of a let down this year, but i'll make sure i get more skiing and jumping filmed this year so i can have a dope seggy next year, or you guys can message me about getting a copy of our movie we make this year, called 'Short Time Heroes' by lucky 87 films, which will have a full segment of me with all my good footage from the year. we aren't selling them at a retail price, we are going to sell them at however much they cost to make for the copy, plus shipping....

Finn is dope, he definetly has air tricks, and if you buy L87's movie this year, you will see all that. I guess he already just said that though. Oh well. I'll get you those hats sooner or later Finn, there is no snow yet, but you will have your hats.

Because he used to be pretty baller at rails- it's 7 years old because he disappeared a long time ago.  Look up some old Level 1 stuff- he always had some pretty dope urban

derek finn was sick, and his strike 3 segment WAS dope. but i liked his forward segment too, all rails segments are sort of cool some times. he didnt seem to have the best relationship with berman haha, what with the intro to his strike 3 segment and stuff. berman seems like sort of a weird dick
