You are definitely improving your filming skills and production. What skis were you skiing on and what camera are you using? Good to see you again!!

Generally skiing on Fischer Boundless or when my wife is using them I revert to Hagan Extremes - both very light skis. Mostly only using Garmont Excursions which again are a pretty light boot. Would love some new fatter more shaped skis but I try to travel as light as I can and I do have lots of old skis hiding away in the shed so hard to justify...

These days using a Canon XA10 and GoPro Hero 3 although some of the skiing footage was shot with a GoPro Hero 1. Glad someone thinks I am improving - my wife told me the other day that I was getting sloppy with my editing! (pumping out 4 videos in one day thanks to a wet Hobart weekend)

Awesome films Mark, good to see someone making the most of Tassie' winter.
Really like the turns going down the snow covered roads, I wish I could turn skis like that

Great vids! Good choice of sound tracks too.
It seems odd watching skiiing when it's 35 degrees outside.
We can learn a lot from crayons. They come in different shapes and colours, but they all have to live in the same box
