Matt Koskinen's Lifetime Urban Edit
It's been since 2014 since I've hit a handrail or urban set up and in 2014 I didn't grease the rail I was attempting. So, I thought I'd go back through all my years of urban skiing and compile them into a lifetime urban edit. There were a few seasons I hit only a few handrails or none at all due to injury or lack of snow including; 2004 due to an ACL tear on Hylands big public jump, 2007 and 2012 due to lack of snow. 4:17-5:17 features shots all from around Edina High School where I graduated in 2004. If I ever hit any streets up again on a pair of skis, you can be sure I'll take photos/video. As I just moved to Vail in November 2016, I hope to hit up some sick pow this year and in the future. If you are at the age of making season edits, cherish it! Time flies when you are having fun on a pair of skis. Like Warren Miller says, "If you don't do it this year, you'll be one year older when you do."

I put this ski movie together as a passion project over the 2017-2018 winter. Shot entirely on a GoPro 6 with Karma Grip gimbal, Karma drone, and Manfrotto monopod.
Skiing is what got me into video production. At about age 13, my friend Bill Kelly and I pooled together around $300 to buy our first Sharp 8mm video camera to shoot our latest freestyle ski tricks. With camera in hand, now we could see how our tricks looked and started making our own ski movies.
Gimbal and Groomers features the fewest tricks of any ski movie I've made since our first ski movie released in 2002 'F*ckin' Daffay'. My goal was to shoot skiing that wasn't too 'extreme', rather go back to the basics and shoot groomers and moguls.
