Well, the timing couldn’t be better. The day after I post a tongue-in-cheek condemnation of helmet-cam “culture,” my nephew sends me the edit on his latest ski flick, most of which is shot on a helmet-cam. Doh!
My nephew, Henry, is 12 and charges the Big Couloir at Big Sky and sends Hidden Gully at Bridger. There’s also quick snippet of him blasting a clay pigeon with a .410-gauge shotgun. What’s the next, the kid rapping in his own video? Epic!
Click on the link and you’ll jump to Teton Gravity Research’s contest for grom filmmakers. Give it a look and see if you dig. If so, click “yay” and put in your vote for Henry. I’m not sure what he wins…but it’s probably not a kick in the nuts…so vote!
