Here's my latest short edit.I'm interested to know what you guys think about the overall vibe of the video and also the filming/editing (I tried something a bit different from my recent only follow cams edits)

maybe a title at the beginning to introduce the rider?

some of your shots cut off the riders head, although some looked planned (dof and a rail) others like some of the jumps looked accidental

other than that pretty solid I really enjoyed it

Thanks gor the feedback!

You have a good eye haha, the jump shots are in fact those where the head was cut off accidentally, I still have to work my follow cam on bigger jumps.

So overall pretty sweet, I like the different angles and the music was surprisingly un-cliche and original. The only thing is either learn how to hold the camera steady or use warp stabilizer for some of the shots showing just the skier. Keep it up.

I don't think the footage is shaky to the point of using the warp stabliser. I try to avoid using it when not necessary because I don't think it does that much of a good job (Jello-ish effect and loss of sharpness). It is true that my footage could be less shaky tho, thanks for the advice.
