Anyone else seen this? Its pretty sick pretty much they give a behind the scenes view of extreme sports and how they get the camera angles. So far its all been big mountain skiing and from the making of "Claim". In the previews they got shots of how they got cameras set up on to do quick shots of park tricks and all that. I dont know when it started but they got some new episodes comin out every now and then and I highly reccommend it. Just watched a bit with CRJ, Abma, Mike Douglas... great stuff

Ya the show is actually called focused and ironically it follows MSP during their production of Claim. Kinda threw me for a loop when i saw it on the TV schedule

It started two weeks ago, and has already had 3 episodes. The first two episodes were in BC with TJ and others. This weeks episode was in Italy with CR. I hope this show stays focused on skiing.

yeah, they were playing this on repeat at the cost-co in Kelowna a couple years ago.  I was pretty surprised to see hjorleifson shredding on all the display TVs there.
