johnasmo Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Shot yesterday, April 24th. The Montucky crew closes down Big Sky. That's Dave1, Dave2, Kelly2R and yours truly, going bell to bell on a spectacular, bluebird, hero snow, top of the season day. A number of BOL cards were dispensed to the curious, as this place apparently doesn't see very many carvers.... <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/T3GAjn-dTVs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gcarve Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Nice end of season vid! It's a shame that Big Sky is closing with such a substantial amount of good snow on the ground! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnasmo Posted April 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 It was a road trip weekend. If that was day 3, what about the others? Yes, they were good days too, but my upload speeds are pretty slow. Here's more. Day 1 was a powder day. It's fun to watch Dave1 (dredman) tackle all the moguls and crud and trees on his alpine board. <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/754REJUf1fE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Day 2 was groomer heaven. There's some cool follow-cam work at 3:00 where I got stacked up within spitting distance of Dave2 (Big Dog Dave) for at least 10 tight turns on Ambush. <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Dq70N-erx7w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Your closedown count is pretty good this year, you guys! I think the poor token chick almost fell down some of those trenches ... there's a few spots where you see her disappear and come back up the other side!! Hanging out to ride with the crew again next season. See you on the lifts at the Fish this summer, with a bit of luck! PS - just watched the vid of Big Sky Day 1. That looks like waaaaay too much fun, and luv the nod to one of my fave Talking Heads songs! Miss K, add Big Sky to the list for the Montucky Wydaho road trip next season ...

BigDogDave Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 As always, great work on the videos John. Thanks for capturing a couple great days of carving. Can now use these for summer carving fodder for the next several months!! And what an ending day for the season. I went through 4 closing weekends,,,,Kellycanyon, Big Mountain, Grand Targhee, and Big Sky. Was not expecting my best day to be at the very end,,,,yea ,,,,priceless. Thanks Montuckians!

Gabe T Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Nice chase shots! Looks like the videographer was pretty close most of the time. How was it shot? ... Camera, mount (helmet/hand held), on skis or board? Gabe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnasmo Posted May 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Nice chase shots! Looks like the videographer was pretty close most of the time. How was it shot? ... Camera, mount (helmet/hand held), on skis or board? Gabe Helmet mounted, but not a GoPro. Just a normal Canon pocket camera and trip to the hardware store to fab a bracket to bungee it to chin guard on my helmet. The camera is a Canon Powershot SD 960IS and the hardware spend was about $3.00. I really should upgrade to something that will shoot with higher quality video, but I like that this setup is pocketable and expendable if something goes terribly wrong. I'm on alpine gear too. I just pull the camera out of my pocket now and then, slip it in place, then carve with my buddies a bit. I like when I'm stacked up above somewhat synchronized so I'm not turning the camera so much, but sometimes I'm just tail gunning. Sometimes I'll skid along one side if I want to get a little side view, but most of the time I'm right there carving with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
