tway are u gonna make a video for the vermont race?

how about the farm finale? any word?

Tway's camera crashed. It could be awhile.

I just finished burning the first couple of DVD's containing pretty much everything I filmed/edited this year. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. I just rendered one in 16:9 (Widescreen) and it looks bitchin'. I'm gonna send a couple test copies to Noah and Joe to make sure they operate smoothly. If all goes well, they'll be available (probably just after X-Mas but hopefully before) in both 4:3 and 16:9 formats. I'll keep anybody interested posted.

To watch this in 10 years or so...will be pretty cool.

Keeping the memories alive.

Feliz Navidad

Runtime: 1 hour+
Cost: No Time to Hate Productions is a non-profit organization. However, small donations (to cover the blank DVD and shipping) will gladly be accepted.

I'm in Tway! Let me know when it's available and I'll send the donation!

Yep we want one for the sk8park.

Maybe a few more for prospectice Slalomers!

We'll take two here in Jersey. Team Fatboy will bring it on our snowboard vacation for inspiration!

I'd like to throw an additional bouquet at Tway's feet. As much as we all love to see ourselves and have a documentation of our races, Tway's videos surved an additional, crucial purpose this year. Recruitment.

Tway's videos are fun. They show the span of talent from brand newbies to champions. They include humor, goofy distractions that help keep the skating punctuated. These on-line videos got sent from one skater to another, posted on websites, and were invaluable in turning out the crowds.

So thank you Tway. I know it takes time and effort. We all appreciate it, maybe on more levels than you know.

PS - Maybe next years videos can have less of the "Roger Korman, bad acid trip" feel to them. I'm afraid of the individuals that those wavy lines speak to and what it will be like to try an organize a race where people are seeing monster cones that arn't there.

I'm down for a video!

let us know where to sent the donation and i'll get it to you asap

>> in both 4:3 and 16:9 formats. I'll keep anybody interested posted.

Tway: I am interested in getting copies of both formats, AND I will make sure my donation MORE than covers your costs.

Joe: It already happened. You saw my second run, first day, at the Dam...

I criddled the SECOND cone dude, not the FIRST!

no, but you will get a great shot of your fall and trip to emergency room.

i havent (yet) what i was thinking on doing (and heres goes any surprises for next season) its to attach it underneath the deck looking to any of the trucks or maybe do a small extension out of the rear of the deck about knee high pointing forward. I think the motion of the slalom will be captured at its best.

in the other hand, i dont think it has a great resolution (640x320) but its not that expensive for trying out.

Those sound like good ideas. I'll chip in on it if you want.

I thought about doing something like that on my Flushcut, but on the top of the board to capture the speed.
Theres plenty of room to put a small camera on that thing.

But anyway, your idea sounds very awesome, and i really hope it works out!
That would make for a sweet video, especially if you were to get a few different people to ride the "camera-board" to capture the different styles and all that good stuff!

Something like this Leo: http://www.lebancdecaplans.ca/blog/vid-rich.html.

That's Rich with a view of his front and rear truck. Done by Boris Firquet. Long time friend and local longboarder.

pretty much what i had in mind, i would love to install a camera on different setups and we can see in slow motion the different reactions from several trucks brands/setups.

still i will make the extension to the camera.
