Toward the end of last season Meathead Films organized an Easter weekend park shoot with Killington Resort in Vermont. With ample snow left over from the Dew Tour course, terrain park supervisor Jay Rosenbaum headed a crew that spent several days constructing features.

A 70-foot tabletop (with mini side booter) as well as a unique blocked out feature affectionately termed the "Killington Kastle" allowed skiers Will Hibbs, Evan Williams, JP Perry, Jake Doan, and KC Brousseau to work their airborne prowess. The sometimes fickle late-spring weather held out and the Meatheads were able to shred for three productive days. This Prime Cutlet features some of the tricks and camera angles that didn't quite make the final version of the new movie.

Thanks to Justin Cash for shooting these sick photos!

Rain. Crust. Snow. Thaw. Ups and downs in snow conditions and weather are the norm in New England. The Meats rolled with the punches and spent this past season scouring the East for good snow and deep days. Jay Bowen and Jeff Curry sussed out some Vermont sidecountry stashes after an unfavorable weather cycle and scored some shin-deep pow. Erik Olson and Ben Leoni pillaged some freshies at Stowe resort and the mighty tram of Cannon serviced tasty morsels to Ben and local Stacey Rachdorf in some remote drainages. This second episode of Prime Cutlets concludes with Jeff and Ross Imburgia popping boulder taps and double backfliping mini booters at an abandoned ski area.
