(Also posted in the Slider Forums, but...)
One of the guys I worked with in the summer just got done with some videos of the guys from the camp, so if you wanna check them out here's the links: (I'll be adding them as I get them uploaded) There's some good footage from our slider park as well as some wake riding. Let me know what you think! (If you watch any, watch the first 3 - they're the best ones)

They were are shot really well I thought. #1 was by far the best. I liked the guy jumping off the tower to make the rider pop up timed perfectly with the driver starting to pull away. that was sweet. Also, the girl ripping it up was pretty awesome.

Nice editing, good camera angles, and well put together. You should make it one long one featuring everyone together.

Yeah, a promotional DVD is being put together right now - these are just short sections for the camp's website when it gets updated.

And yeah, Mikey and Laura definitely kill it. Laura's one of the best females in Canada, and Mike's up there for the men. It's a pretty sweet staff we've got.

The Blob thing (the one where the dude jumps off the tower) was a really fun night - that was the first one we did, and it was the only one that worked. Mike and Jeff got booted a couple times, but the driver didn't go soon enough so they just bailed. Mike actually got extended into a raley and pulled in, but there was no tension so he basically did a dock start from like 15 feet in the air and killed his knees. I'd like to get the footage of that and throw it up too - but I'm not sure if we still have it.

Thanks for the feedback!

Maestro, Mike is a very nice guy, I meet him at the hyperlite tour stop over here in BC... he was judging me for wakeskate and put me in 3rd in pro wakeskate... i was stoked... all those guys, Donald, Rattray, Buskus there the stuff and they can really ride

Maestro, i watched the other videos. The blob was awesome!!! that would be really cool if someone could do an intentional raley off there.

Excellent editing, they look good.

The one with the tower looked cool. I also liked the sliders that went bad. seeing boards get stripped from their feet and landing on the slider was just sick. Very Happy

joedirt00, i agree with you about the editing too. i really like how in the beginning of each part it pauses and the guy keeps moving. very nice Maestro.
