I like my friends and I like making ski videos.
If youre not already familiar with the name Oliver Hoblitzelle, then you might as well get acquainted now.
The young filmer already has quite a growing resume without any signs of slowing down.
Oliver began filming at a younger age than most.
The only way I could keep hanging out with my ski friends was to film them, he said.
I picked up a shitty camera and it all stemmed from there.
Halfway through last year me and Mango were really thinking about the possibility of getting a spot.
The duo then submitted Jakes urban footage from Stain in hopes of getting a shot to compete in Realski.
We just got lucky, there were a lot of people who deserved a spot this year.
Throughout the winter the group filmed in Minnesota as well as small amounts in Utah, Colorado and Omaha.
However, The bulk of the time was in Minnesota.
He was pretty injured throughout most of the filming for the contest.
His injuries were no joke.
Oliver explained that We were able to just squeak by with the amount of time we were given.
Were really happy with the product we made.
In my opinion, I think Phil has the best video this year.
Its an amazing part, I cant complain to see him on top.
Peyben and ABMs videos are amazing as well.
The momentum isnt stopping there.
Id like to see what if we could step up the video for next year, said Oliver.
Sanch and I have talked about this video a lot.
Our goal is to capture our friends personalities and all the crazy shit we do.
The film has been more thought out than both Roasted and Stain.
Sanch, JakeandOliver take a look at their footage.
There is a small window of time each winter.
The goal of this urban project?
Make the best video weve ever made that will hopefully be remembered and contribute to skiing.
