fatbob, it wouldn't load off the natives page for me, but if it's the guy on the sit-ski, yes it is.

Those sit-down skis must sport some very expensive suspension.

Masque,
Its definitely not an "amateur" production as Falquet is a well-known Verbier based pro skier. But it was shot in 2 days and edited in 1 as part of the Hike & Ride video contest with a small team.

For the context and other videos.

fatbob, I think what's happened is that post-filming resources now need to be state of the art to pull the vid into a broadcast quality product . . . which will then be used to generate an income stream.
There's no denying the skiing skills but they are playing a very subservient roll to the tight post-pro editing that makes this vid so watchable and 'inspirational'. My concern is that Pro Vid Cos are using opportunities like this event as nothing more that business promotion and the people putting in their heart and soul fo no reward are getting a short shafting

Masque, I'm not sure of your point - every seasonnaire with a laptop and a DVcam is making homebrew ski flicks these days. They'd be naive if they expected reward for it though it has provided a springboard for some to go into the pro photog/videography industry I suspect.
The contest has a variety of differnt styles and perhaps some have less polished production than others but I'd hope the contest was judged on riding & story arc as much as flashy post production software. Is it produced by Zapiks or are they just the hosting co for the natives link?

McConkey and Davenport had done their own slasher movie 2 years ago in the competition with some similar decapitation etc, I thought the Brit boys effort had Shallow Grave influences but was still good.

fatbob, an apology, I now realise that there's been some post-production top and tail branding by Red Bull to all the film efforts . . . I found it detracting and thought it sullied the film quality (still do).
