Yes yes, we know this is an advert, but it’s pretty frickin’ cool right? You’ve got a vid of Seb Toots doing a lap through Blackcomb’s summer glacier park, and YOU get to choose which tricks he does. Just click on the options and watch him do your nefarious bidding. Yes, you are the evil puppet-master, and you have complete control over one of the world’s best snowboarders. Watch him double cork when you say so! Make him do a switch back lip with a twitch of the strings! You can even make him eat shit on the wallride if you want! Mwahahaha
In all seriousness though, the potential on this is pretty huge – imagine an Absinthe video where you could decide whether you wanted to watch urban or powder tricks? Or a Pat Moore part where you could cut out all the landings and just watch the board-chucking and the shit-eating slams? The technology here isn’t even that sophisticated (it just jumps forward to particular spots on the Youtube timeline) but there’s a lot you could do with this. And anyway, it’s just fun right? Almost makes me wanna go out and buy those O’Neill headphones…
