MSP & Standard Films Hit Whistler

Friday, May 05, 2006

Matchstick Productions & Standard Films paired up once again for an epic jump and film/photo shoot on Whistler. Ace cat driver Curtis Von Cube & I worked for a week to create the vision that was presented to us by Mike Douglas & the MSP crew. Curtis & I were asked to build a cross over jump so skiers could air over & under each other at the same time. The X jump was built in the Burnt Stew area just before the Flute gate entrance. Curtis did an outstanding job on the build and I assisted with measurements & kicker shaping.

X Jump completed.

The second jump site was near the bottom of Frontier pass off the top of the Peak chair. Curtis once again re worked the jump to the groups desires and made the jump perfect once again. The Standard Films crew joined in on the Frontier jump and once all athletes figured out speed for the in run, the action was unreal.

The end of the day to sunset shooting will be something to see in the magazines & part of the Standard Films & Matchstick Productions releases this fall! Big thanx to Curtis for his fine cat work & Mike Douglas for the daily consultations & for helping us dig & shape the kicker for the Frontier jump site. Recognition to Patroller Shawn Beaudoin who helped with all the fencing, gear shuttles & general all around help before & during the shoots.
