New Meathead Films Trailer!!!

[skidmarks]

If you play it in the ski shop, you can blame it on product promotion. You're covered.

I can watch it with only one eye...............
I can save the urban and park bits for later, much later. In fact I can wait till Meriden's debute to see them.

Just pulled my copy from the mail box. Do I watch it while my girlfriend is away in DC? Do I wait till my ski club "Meriden" shows it in December? Do I play it at the Ski Shop tomorrow?

Watch it now, you won't mind watching it again at the ski club shows.

Pics?

Nope, sorry. Carrie wasn't home, otherwise I bet there would have been.

Clearly he has a problem if he's now hiding this behavior... it's like drinking alone.

If I didn't have this terrible head cold I probably would have been drinking a rum and coke at the same time. Does that mean I really have a problem?

Nah, you just spent the evening alone with the kids. :lol:

Just finished watching it all, great film. Best since born from ice. The urban stuff is kinda hokey. Personally I don't think it is skiing. I also think the extras are the best part.

don't think it's skiing? really? come on... still? it's 2008 man!

jibbing on the pro level requires absolute balance, edging and weighting applied towards a different skill with the same tools (skis or board) as trees, bumps, steeps, kickers, carving... and Andy Parry takes it one further with tricks like the hippy killer... one of the most innovative tricks to be brought to the table in a long time.

i can understand that if a person is not participating in the genre of skiing as portrayed in the film it'd get boring, such as too many AK shots in bigger ski movies put me to sleep, but to say that sliding rails is not skiing baffles me at this point in its progression.

personally, i don't see myself ever skiing on non-twin tips again as i'd find it limiting to my playing on snow.

Hey J-rod, wanna setup some nice mellow boxes or something at Sundown for me this year? I'm thinking of giving jibbing a shot. I'm not sure if I can handle spending too much time at Sunnyside though.

I think most of the urban stuff in this years movie was really cool and creative. In the past movies I just skip over a lot of that stuff since I'm not a park rat, but I really enjoyed most of it in this years film.

Definitely counts as skiing in my book.

I think the jibbing in the big movies can be kinda boring because the progression you see is built off of the same base (going bigger and bigger or spinning more and more). Some of the jibbing sections in Head for the Hills is a different progression coming from a different base. The stuff the guys are doing in HFTH, especially in teh last part, you won't see in any of the other ski films on the market. It is fresh, new, and fun to watch. Best jib sections I've seen in any ski movie, to be honest.
