So I won't bore you all with a longish back story, but I do have a question to pose.
One of my coworkers and some of his friends put together a ski video (yes there skiers, one of them still snowboards every now and then so its all good) every year for the past few years. We got to talking and I told him I do photography and he got all excited because they needed a photographer, so I offered to do it. But the problem is I have never done photography on a mountain.
So my question to you all is, do you have any tips.
Also before you ask I do have a good dslr camera.
Peace

shooting most action up close: wide angle lens, get close but don't get hit.
70mm prime lens is what a lot of Pros use in the pipe.
Shooting uphill: 70-300mm tele is nice
always try to comp the shot to show take off and landing. keep the action framed either 1/3 or 2/3s of the shot, never centered. (if you can help it)
do you have strobes? Look at the high style of most shots in the Mags as they use slave flashes.
