wow jeez I cant wait to snowboard now!!
nice first edit!....I agree with mizu, a pole works nicely and would get more of you and your turns in the picture….harder to ride with though.

my mate got a GoPro off sportscamera.com.au after we saw them on the forum.
here is his first edit of some of us,he put up today….its all bodyboarding and some surfing, no snowboarding in this one.
Some of it has some pole cam variations on it though that we are trying out, and they seem to work ok,

That surfing edit was really cool too! The GoPro is definitely impressive.

Nice Job Rider!  Major props for using ‘The Boys’ for music too! Made me miss NY and Tahoe snow at the same time smile

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I was preparing myself for more negative comments. Thanks for going easy on me. wink

That Beastie Boys track was the first track I selected and I wasn’t sure if it was a good fit, but I went with it anyway. Track number two from Paul’s Boutique, one of my old favourites.

That’s a sick edit, CRACKERS. There’s some really interesting angles going on there. The pole on the bodyboard works really well.

Now to work out why my clip has a black border around the video on Vimeo. Any ideas?

You need to pan/crop (Sony Vegas) your footage and choose the template with your desired resolution eg 1920x1080.

Also, instead of the 4:3 ratio (Square) use the 16:9 widescreen to remove the side borders.

I am awaiting your email with my flight and acomm details. Thanks Jez !!!!  tongue wink


I think there are a few of us that are insanely jealous of you guys atm.

Forget those two old farts rider your gonna need someone that can keep up!
I still haven’t booked my knee surgery wink and your vid is another reason not to.

You should taken one of the poles off the dude that did the nice turn. Then rigged up a polecam for the second half of the vid.
