This was the first official video assignment I had taken from the magazine and I was more than excited to be flown out to Powder Mountain in Utah for a week. The series of 5 videos documents the day to day in the life of a ski tester. The testers would take dozens of runs noting the differences in equipment.
Technically this was a very demanding assignment for me. Spending most of the days on the slopes hiking and skiing meant late nights editing and publishing the daily videos.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1491455030450{background-color: #ffffff !important;}” offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-xs”][/vc_column][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-offset-0 vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-6 vc_col-xs-12″ css=”.vc_custom_1491497604743{padding-top: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}”][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/89940432″ align=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1491514224946{margin-top: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1491514278171{padding-left: 20px !important;}”]
