Zane, thought of you ....
Two of the best inventions ever, skis and airplanes, together.
Have you seen this ? Was posted on another forum. Comes out this September. Looks like something that "might" interest you. Skiing/snowboarding and flying.

Ha...I almost posted this too. I mean, it is called 'The Art of Flight' so at least the title is on-topic. I read an article about this recently and the camera technology is pretty unheard of for this type of movie (so was the budget). At any rate, it looks pretty amazing!

I can't believe I got to it first. Yea, it is ski-flying, so it works.

Those guys are incredible. They also have another Travis Rice snowboard movie from a few seasons ago called "That's It, That's All." Amazing cinematography and some cool heli footage too.

Awesome footage. Looks like the 16R of Heli-Boarding.
Love seeing taurine dollars at work.

Sometimes that beast required 4 hands on it..........actually each one of us was too scared to fly it alone....That is why the Albatross requires two pilots.
