Golden – Mariachi Bowling
Brush and floss your teeth daily
Let kids be creative … surprising things happen. Specific use of SmoothCam is what peaks my interest here. You’ll have to wait for it, but it shows creative power when edited to some melodic black metal.
Video of the Day – Freediving
Genius and scary. I don’t even know what it’s for or if this is completely real, but I intend to find out.
1. Dean’s Blue Hole – this is no joke.
2. Guillaume Nery is no joke either – but considering the deepest any freediver has ever gone in the blue hole is 120 metres (394 ft) – just last month – I do not believe Guillaume actually made it to the bottom. Still, this is ridiculously insane and opens up an entire new world to a sport I knew existed, but had no idea s to what capacity it was being taken.
Excellent work goes out to Bluenery Productions with a quick 1 month turn around on this project.
Cart Chicks Playing Wolf Creek Today
Live from Wolf Creek golf course in Mesquite, Nevada – CartChicks just finished the front 9. Advancing to the back with Cold Coors Lights in hand. Wish us luck!
Skiing – Tom Wallisch
A good example of pushing the limits of both skiing and camera technology. You will see Tom Wallisch in Level 1 Productions new film Eye Candy due out in September.
Kevin Pearce – Leaves Craig Hospital
Update on Kevin Pearce leaving Craig Hospital. Congratulations and good luck on your goal of riding again.
FHUPPED UP-date
Flying Helicopters Under People Productions.
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.

Mountain Golf
Hanging out at the Historic Summit Inn in Pennsylvania – we did a little mountain golf following antiquing.
Holy F*ck!
Worlds Largest Naked Front Flip… Good find Nate Warner via JF Cusson via Jen Crichton.
From what I have gathered – Some guy named Nico Zacek throws this event called Nine Knights. Skiers (Oscar Scherlin, Henrik Harlaut, Laurent Favre, Mikael Descenaux, the best British rider Paddy Graham, and the top Austrian/German riders Fabio Studer, Thomas Hlawitschka, Martin Misof and Nico Zacek) jump the castle. Photographers (Mattias Fredriksson, Klaus Polzer, Elina Sirparanta, Yarrek) photograph the jump. And everyone parties.
Until this guy blows the wind through his balls on a massive crack open front fly to flat. Teddy Berr – I know you have balls, but are they still intact?
Read more – more and watch more.
Amazing in Sport – Soccer
Have no clue who the teams are or what the significance of this game was – but this replaces the previous video I had in this slot because copyright removed it.
Their celebration dance is how I feel about YouTube when they remove videos… even though they are not to blame.
Tiger Control
This will likely be one of the most popular ads of our time and it just dropped. Nike is featuring Tiger Woods in an advertisement with a voice over from his late father, Earl Woods.
Tiger,
I am more prone to be inquisitive… to promote discussion.
I want to find out what your thinking was.
I want to find out what your feelings are.
And… did you learn anything?
Nike.
There is going to be plenty of talk about this one. Genius.
Nike Air
Notice the length of this video. Genius.
Golf Digest – 60 Stories in 60 Days
Beginning April 1st, Max Adler, Associate Editor of Golf Digest is taking a 60 day golfing road trip in celebration of the magazines 60 years in publication.
What interests me about Max’s adventure is how he is going to pay it back to some of Golf Digest’s real fans and supporters over the years … and his #1 and #2 example stops both revolve around Long Drive (and luck).
1. LONGEST HOLE-IN-ONE DENVER
Michael Crean aced the 517-yard, par-5 ninth at Green Valley Ranch Golf Club in 2002.2. LONG-DRIVE PROVING GROUND / LITTLE ROCK
Long Drive champ Sean (The Beast) Fister poses the same challenge to any upstarts who think they can make it in pro long drive: Carry the Arkansas River from the lawn of the Clinton Presidential Library & Museum. (It’s 360 yards.)
Maybe I will try and document a couple of his 60 stops throughout the nation. They sound like good stories… why wouldn’t you want them on video?
