OK SO,
this is my idea. It literally came to me in my sleep. Kind of a follow up on the Salomon summer edit contest.....THIS IS JUST AN IDEA, ITS NOT SPONSORED BY ANYONE, BUT HOPEFULLY IT WILL CATCH ON AND NS CAN TAKE OVER....assuming that you guys like the idea.
In the next few months, ski areas all around the northern hemisphere will be opening for the 08-09 season. "Opening Day" is notorious in many areas to be a day in which way to many skiers/snowboarders pack into a very small area with a very large amount of "stoke".
This seems like a perfect time to share the "vibes" from each hill from the people on NS, as well as the masses of creative things that go down on pathetic opening day mini jibs. (everybody likes an edit with a nice feel and creative skiing)
ok, so heres how it would work. Post your home hill/mountain/slopes scheduled opening day the first time you see this. When that day comes, film an edit, make it nice and put it in this thread. The footy, theoretically should only be from that day, but there is some trust involved. That way, poeple should not be able to film at A-basin for like a month before anyone else even gets a chance. To prove it, film something that showes the opening date/location, and quote youself on the date/location that you posted pre opening day, so the two dates/locations match.
The purpose of these edit is to show how fuckin stoked people get on opening day, and really, how much fun opening day really is. As of now, if it doesnt catch on, this is a contest of pride, but hopefully NS will like the idea and do something with it.
