A buddy and I took a trip up to nubs nob and I got some footage and decided to make an edit. My computer has been fucked up for a while now and I didn't have the money to get a new one so I made the edit on my phone. I'm just looking for basic constructive criticism. Thanks for any tips.

Also, this is my buddies first year skiing in the park so we didn't have a very deep bag of tricks to work with.

Overall, not too bad for your first try, two big things. 1 dont use cross fades, cut to the beat, looks cleaner and 2 when you film, get closer, alot of your shots are too wide. Keep filming and editing itll get easier and you'll produce a better video.
