Is this Snowboard Gabber?

But for real, I've seen these guys before and they're good as fuck, especially considering that they're from Rhode Island

yawgoons is what's really. the snowboarding, filming and editing are all so on point. skiing is so far behind this.

Yes, they deserve this thread. Every new yawgoons edit is basically a holiday.

I was on the lift when Shaun Murphy did the back one on to frontboard on the flat down flat tube at Sugarbush. Probably one of the sickest tricks i had ever seen on that feature. Completely blind the whole time.

There park is good considering its set up by Yawgoons, but then again they might set it up boarder-style but from there edits, they hit stuff from the side

I don't agree here. Snowboarding has its "skateboard" style filming and it fits for them but skiing looking better with wide angle glidecam shots, long lens zoom jump shots, ect. Both are to hard to compare.

They have a few stuff up, normally rails that almost always go Up flat or Up ~~~ . They normally start with an up, and then there are always fun corrugates. Everyone at yawgoo is trying to get them to make an actual park on a trail, but there is only so much we can do, currently, its worth the drive to go to wachusett mountain or nashoba valley.

skiing can look good with either. obviously fisheyes don't work that well for bigger jumps but when used well they're really sick. also their filmer does a really good job mixing what lenses he uses which i think is really dope. all lenses have their time and place but saying skiing looks better with a wide angle on a glidecam is ignorant. it's also more difficult doing what their filmer does than following around someone with a glidecam. i don't know i just have a lot of respect for everything those doods do because every ski edit these days is the exact fucking same.

also since the first yawgoons came out a year ago they've gone from having like 5k plays to 35k plays which is so sick

yeah I'll still be going to Snow on the weekends/off days but i was just wondering in terms of something super close that i could just fuck around at. my rail game is behind my jump so i might get some good use out of it, thanks!
