Sandbox Sunset Shoot On Blackcomb Mountain
Whistler Blackcomb's UntrackedLines.com - Wed, 2008-05-14 09:23
Saturday, May 3rd marked a momentous occasion for the Sandbox crew and for our new film, 'ALL DAY EVERYDAY'. We finally had our first bad ass helicopter shoot. The Whistler/Blackcomb marketing team, along with the park staff put together one of the best sunset film shoots ever done in Whistler. The jump was perfect and the riders had a lot of time to warm up and get it dialed while the sun dropped below the clouds. We called in the heli and got Clayton and Hockenstein suited up in their harnesses ready to hang out of the doorless chopper. Clayton had never even been in a helicopter before and now he was hanging out of one. By the time the riders, filmers and the pilot got their timing right, the sunset was perfect. The pressure was definitely on and everyone stepped up to the challenge. The pilot got the chopper really low and tight to the riders, Clayton's shots were smooth and the riders stomped 900's and 1080's as the sunset lit up the sky. After waiting anxiously through three days of bad weather and all the work and effort to build and maintain the jump, it all came together in a fast paced, two hour session of flying, filming and riding. Wish you could have been there to see and feel the energy of it all. Can't wait for everyone to see the shots in the new film. Special thanks to everyone who helped make this shoot such a huge success.
