(little extreme video part II)
(in fact, it's the 2nd pitch of the trail where we took the first video at La Réserve, 10 days ago)

Funnily, a person without control has hit the cameraman at the beginning of the film... it's why it's jumping that much ! (and you hear the "sorry" lol)

There was still a lot of coverage, except in this kind of pitches where there was just enough snow to keep them open. I didn't ski too much in the woods, though, cause I was with less extreme skiers yesterday ! (the glades were nice, at least)

The english report :
Ski la Réserve - dec-29, 2003 (http://www.firsttracksonline.com/discus/messages/2508/3158.html?1072800544)

And the full pics report (in french) (more pics cause there is another guy that was here that posted some great ones)

I would have loved to take more pics and some glade ones, but with the occasional rain, I prefered to not keep on me my camera...

Frank,

-BG Haha, yesterday, I just did one run with my camera, cuz of the rain in the morning. It's why there is 2 pics of the "Chute Libre". (translation = freefall )

Yeah, I like this trail a lot with its neighbours and twins "Pirouette" and "Lavoie" (the last one is a glade, though) They missed snow yesterday, but they are one of the best triple black diamond trio in the east. (not counting tucks)

Few stats : Chute Libre : up to 70 degrees on pitch 1 left. This is just a deadly cliff, finally, with tiny edges to ski on for the most sick ones.

Pirouette (translation = Tumble ): up to 65 degrees on pitch 1 + the big cliff to jump on top. Narrow, crazy glade on right side, huge rocks, caverns, nice place ;)

Lavoie : same crazy things + you add the trees.

They're just too much delightful after a snowstorm ;)

Thank you Franko. I can't access it from home - will check it out tomorrow at :atwork: .
Love those vicarious ski runs. :lips:

A little thing that I think now.

The website is not made to let people see the video by streaming.

You must download the video on your disk before to see it... (right click, save on disk)

[Mumster]

Still can't access it. :cry:
But, Franko, thanks for trying. The thought is what counts.

[Frankontour]

Weird thing... I guess it depends of your video software...

I admit that I downloaded DirectX 9.0 to see the first video (little extreme video part I)

Few people were not able to access the 3 videos neither... other were able without problem... ahhh technology and softwares...

I viewed the viddy by copying the text of the link and opening it as a URL in QuickTime. Paste the text at the dialog box. Works very well.

Ish..... complicated with that one !

It looks to be the same problems with many kinds of digital cameras taken to make movies...

(it's sure that the softwares coming with the cameras are very recent... like the cameras)
