Hey NS,

I spent 17 days in Japan over the Christmas/ New Year Holiday and had the time of my life including one of the deepest days skiing of my life. Every day it snowed and tallying up the total snowfall, it came to just over 3m... thats insane! Below is the little edit I made of the holiday, I hope you enjoy and as usual any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Shooting pow is hard but its also very rewarding!

that was nice..i've seen so much stuff from japan lately that it hurts!

I thought your logo was a bit difficult to understand, especially because you had the letters fade in randomly. I like the concept, and I don't htink it's so difficult that you should take it out, I just wanted to make note that it's not the easiest to pick up on.

That was sick. Funky looking place you were riding. Was it all at a resort?

Also, what song of Atmosphere's was that? I didn't recognize it. Did he release a new album or single or something recently?

Thanks guys, I'm glad you like the vid!

@juicedrummer - go get those skis! Exposing was super hard on this trip. The weather changes so quickly over there, you can go from bluebird to dumping and back to bluebird in a matter of minuets its crazy! Matching the shots was hard and I was pushing the exposure a lot in post and was starting to get messy.

@bigbromskier - thanks, I hear ya about the logo, sometimes people don't see it first time but clicks eventually and I like the design, haha. I may make some little tweaks like colour changes to distinguish each word, but for now im content.

@Bart.Man - everything was at a resort bar the tree jib which was in the backcountry. The song was called Bob Seger and I think its just a single not a full album yet. Glad you like the vid.

Link to vid on the NS video page if you want to give it some love :) Would appreciate it
