This site is basically slow motion videos of tricks so you see how they're done. It has lots of "action sports" on. I thought it would be useful for some of you, I think it's really cool.

I like the concept, but the ski tricks they've got up now aren't exactly super technical.

Well, people need to add some. Why don't some of you with video cameras get on that. They have more tricks for other sports to, they don't really have too many skiing ones right now.

Apparently it's a new site too, so that's why there isn't too much up yet, give it some time.

Hello! We are Jelle and Frans and we are the guys behind the website slowtrick.com

We to think the slwtricks in the ski section are quit weak for now.. it's a lot of work to cover every sport good enough..

But! If you guys have camera's which shoot a little slow motion, please feel free to upload them! We don't have our own upload system for the slowtricks yet, but we are working on it. It is hard to ensure the quality when you let everybody upload tricks..

So, if you just upload your slowtrick on vimeo or something, we can download the footage, make one fast, and two slo, put our logo in and we will add it to the slowtrick website!

For now, I got a surgery coming up next week, but in two months I am fixed again. After that we hope to go to France and capture some real snowboard and ski action there.

We'll try to keep you guys posted! Thx for the support!

Wow it seems like i made this thread ages ago. but it was only april. You know what they need, someone to do the traveling circus type tricks in slow-mo so we can see exactly what some of them are. Add some tricks guys!

It is a long time ago indeed.. been busy since.. the traveling circus type of tricks are cool, we are looking for some diabolo or jungling tricks to put in the fun section together with the flair bartending.

And we retards.. well I must agree you CAN say that.. but I wonder why you think that..

ill give you an answer to that :)
there was an filmer in the netherlands (he said he worked for slowtrick) and he was filming some skiers BUT the whole time he was filming on the landing from an kicker, at the end of rails, and while he was filming just looking in the camera and dont look out for other people/ the skiers he was filming.
ive seen him skied over because he jumped in front of the skier to get an good movie!

Hmm that's a shame! I don't exactly remember this.. we do let students (film academy) do some shooting for us sometimes. So could be that we did not give clear enough instructions. We don't have the time to do/shoot everything ourselves. We both still study and have side jobs.. most of the time we make arrangements with someone on site that tells where our people can stand and stuff.. maybe this time that did not work that well.

We are sorry for that, but next time you could maybe just explain to him/her where to or not to stand and stuf..

We'll try our hardest to avoid this type of situations in the future!

Weak skiing. Comments like "Because you have momentum on the 270, you might as well turn after the kink." demonstrates lack of control.

Also the fs 270 was a switchup...
