Nearly the closest effort to FHUPPed up today. Way to go Chris Logan.

FHUPPed up Eye Trip – Level 1
A couple years ago Dave Morin and I were openly talking about the inane direction of freestyle skiing and where it was going. We joked about creating a ski movie production company with a name that defined the craziest thing we could ever imagine seeing a skier do… and so, Flying Helicopters Under People Productions was formed.
FHUPP – A now common adjective for something that is ultimately crazy – has randomly shown up in nearly every film from the last couple of years… However, from my understanding, a true FHUPP has not been accomplished and I challenge anyone who may be willing to strive for it.
The latest installment of a FHUPPed up jump comes from Level 1 Productions latest park shoot at Sun Valley, Idaho.
Tom Wallisch gets inverted on one of the largest kickers I have ever seen. Click the image. Inspect for yourself. This is not small.
Just imagine the kid who guinea pigged this 110′ transfer gap – FHUPP.
ESPN Freeskiing blog has the writeup.
I can’t wait to see the actual chopper footage in Level 1′s new film “Eye Trip” due out in September. Thanks for the share Berman.

Ryan St.Onge = Olympic Almost Gold
Be sure to watch Ryan St.Onge win gold in freestyle aerials tonight.
We have a futurist in Vancouver who has already snapped his gold medal winning jump celebration. I shot my prediction 2 years ago. Unfortunately some jumpers behind him pushed him down to 4th – but your still first in my book.
Congratulations Ryan. Now go miss your flight home for a burrito.

I don’t care what you say about style … this is slightly impressive – and ballsy.
Revisit Ryan St.Onge
Olympics – Begin
And the Freestyle Aerials Gold Medal goes too Ryan St. Onge. I’m calling it now.
Good luck and congratulations for everything you have already accomplished Ryan. You are truly and inspiration on multiple accounts… not just skiing.
Team USA – Ryan St.Onge
Another exciting olympic season is closely approaching and I can’t wait for a good friend to win gold. Ryan St.Onge will be the next Olympic Gold Medalist for mens freestyle aerials.
Don’t be as surprised as I was to see him in this ad for Olympic Team USA.
Double Full - Triple Full - Full … I think you missed one too Ryan
