Damn, that's a good vid. I've got some mates who moved out to near silverstar a few years back, and they've offered me free accommodation and stuff, and promised me a trip to silverstar. You've made it even mroe appealing now mate.

I was riding at the star one day and on blast of (3 Cool

a sqirell ran out and i ran over it and killed it.

That happened to me too on a logride, kinda makes you feel sick in your stomach.

there are free trails that people built all around silverstart so you don't have to pay.

markw (Nov 20, 2007 at 21:29)

I want to give them my money. I have no problem paying for awesome trails and supporting ski resorts that make an effort to let us come and ride on their hill. That being said, I've ridden some of the trails around SilverStar too, definatly some good ones.

Fiend138 (Nov 30, 2007 at 18:59)

u didn't air the table at 92.0 air it, it will make the vid better

markw (Dec 1, 2007 at 21:31)

Yeah, I totally agree, it would have been sweet if I got it. It doesn't look like it in the video, but its one of the biggest jumps there, and I had a really hard time getting enough speed to clear it. Something to shoot for next year!

Fiend138 (May 9, 2008 at 9:40)

ya it does look really hard to get enough speed but looks like u could get er dun so keep trying btw good vid

whoot whoot mark nice vids i need to get out with you guys more next season.

[Reply]

nwfr24 (Dec 5, 2007 at 0:09)

nice I think it would be cool around 105 if instead of fast forwarding when you can't see the rider to just cut it you see it in pro vidoes and i think it's a cool affect

markw (Dec 5, 2007 at 16:29)

There is no fast-forwarding done in the video.

mikebike199 (Dec 16, 2007 at 19:23)

Yo tight video i love that mountain do ride up in edmonton at rabbit hill i think ive seen u there once or twice and at a race 2

markw (Dec 17, 2007 at 16:52)

Thanks. Yeah, I'm from St. Albert, but I ride at Rabbit all the time. Smile

craigtwo (Dec 17, 2007 at 20:43)

where are the wall rides?? did they take them out or you just not get any of that on film.. cause those were a blast to ride, and looks like they changed the run out under the chair lift.. use to just be a straight run with big tables now its a bit more tech Frown

those big tables use to get me going every time

markw (Dec 18, 2007 at 18:48)

Yeah, those big tables are still super fun, I think I like it better now with the twisty runout afterwards. I didn't get the wall rides on film at all, but I did ride them, so fun. That place has so many amazing features, it would take a full-length movie to showcase them all properly. SilverStar is definatly my favorite resort, can't wait to go back!

Nice vid. My friend has cousins up there and he rides there and loves it. The only thing I'd say is change the song. Otherwise great video.

I've spent the last 4 riding season's at SilverStar!!!! It Kicks Ass. It just gets better every year. Wish we had a few more trails tho.

[Reply]

SeaBass999 (Jan 15, 2008 at 13:23)

Wicked vid!!! Hate the song with a passion but the amazing riding makes up for it. Good work!

markw (Jan 15, 2008 at 17:49)

A few people have mentioned they don't like the song. I guess I can understand that. I actually picked it more for its humour than its quality. Smile

Zwarda (Jan 25, 2008 at 3:42)

nice trail for hard tails, too, isn't it?

fr112358 (Mar 8, 2008 at 13:18)

This really is a great video, you are very good at picking angles for non-swiveling shots, however, there are 2 things you need. One is a fluid-head for your tripod, and the other is to choose a different song. You're a great photographer though, I can tell cause I do a lot of shooting like this as well.

markw (Mar 9, 2008 at 14:38)

Thanks for the constructive feedback, I appreciate that. I can't take all the credit for the shot angles; my sister is a pro photographer, and she setup at least 50% of the shots in this video.
