Last week, we got the opportunity to travel up to Snowbasin to hit a few private features the terrain park crew had concocted for us. We grabbed team riders Will Berman, Finn Anderson, Cody Barnhill and Andy Partridge, and drove up from our Salt Lake headquarters. The 'Basin crew had built us a 100-ft booter, a gap-box, a down rail and a super-gnarly rail to tree gap. After a brief warm-up we decided to hit the gap box first.

Finn. 450 all day long. After the gap box, we made our way over to the field goal rail. This think was insane! The more people looked at it, the tighter the gap in the trees got. One of the local rippers who was up there with us guinea pigged it, and ended up breaking out some branches in the middle. Luckily, that created just enough space for Cody "Big Mountain" Barnhill to step up and hit the most technical rail feature of the day. 
A failed nose-tap ended up breaking one of the trees, so we headed to the down rail. A quick session on the rail got a bunch of shots in the bag for all of our riders. 
Finn. Switch-450 on. We also set up a flip cam to film the warm up session on the down rail. Here is some raw footage from it: http://vimeo.com/11652062
With the sun going down, we moved to the biggest feature of the day, the 100-ft booter. 
Cody Barnhill hits a smooth three. Once the sun went down, we put a wrap on our two days of shooting. Keith Carlsen was the professional photographer on the shoot, and Sam Peters shot the video. Look for and edit, and some banger shots come from these two in the coming weeks and months. Special thanks once again to the whole Snowbasin crew for making this happen. Especially the two Tims for setting us up and making great features. -- Words and photos by Phil Herbert.
