We Are Rockstars - Early Spring 2010 (SPRING BREAK SUCKAS)

[petary791]

After a brutal midterms week filled with snow I was itching to shred some gnar during spring break.  My girlfriend started my spring break off by giving me an HD GoPro for our anniversary so shout out to her.  This is footage compiled from the whole week, 3 sessions in total.  I'm so stoked on my new Market Price that I rode for a lot of the video.  Please watch!  Slalom, downhill, and slopestyle inside!

I'm happy someone caught that.  The video doesn't really capture how scary that was for me, being in the back.  I looked down and my wheel literally disappeared under his board.  The strangest part is he was on a dropped board and I was on a topmount.  It was a good day to be riding Indys and heavily slid <70mm wheels I guess!

Best video from you guys yet.

Thanks man, I've certainly come a long way since my first edit.    I keep trying to come up with newer and better ideas and this HD GoPro is really making things easier.

  Awesome footy!

Cool camera angles and a mix of different riding styles. I particularly love the POV pendy at 0:40 and when whoever is in orange crashes into the snow.


How long did it take you guys to get proficient with the pole cam?

Thanks!  That pendy turned out pretty good I thought, I'm happy my GoPro was running.  Bill ended up getting pretty rashed from the icy snow on that fall believe it or not!

Regarding the pole: The great thing about a GoPro is it pretty much does all the work for you.  Just like most of skateboarding, it's mostly in your head.  In the falling section you can feel my buddy Chad falling and almost slamming my camera.  If you are used to grabbing rail when turning you gotta get used to putting a hand down while holding the camera with the other hand.  It's really a useful device and I'm happy other people stepped up to the plate and used it as well as myself.
