    I've seen this before and loved it. Watching it again I wonder what kind of skis they had in the winter. Crappy ones? Or do they buy new ones after each jump? Are they made of money? Do they go back up the mountain and look for them?
    Cool anyway.

    Hmm. Good question.

    The guy who rented the helicopter for the camera man and his equipment probably picked up the tab for a box of skis.

    Just watched it again. There's footage from what seems to be a shoe-cam, and it's surprisingly clear, focused, and jitter-free, although distorted by the wide angle lens.

    Maybe one of the jumpers had a head-cam to capture some of the continuous flying shots of the others. So maybe no helicopter.
