    Sucks he didn't tilt the camera up. Could have been one of the best.

    As a snowboarder I have gained a whole lot of respect for the skiing done through the GoPro series.....loving the lines and the hucking off the cliffs

    Anyone who dislikes GoPro Line of the Winter videos are those who submitted theirs and are jealous that other videos are better or comparable than theirs and disliking it will somehow make their video better. But here's the truth, all skiing/boarding videos should be appreciated within their skill because this a community not a competition. Watching these videos should be an excitement to get on the slopes and not a judgment. Fuck i want to shred this run.

      Camera viewing angle isn't tall enough, it's important to see the skis, but also there's not enough vision downhill.
