So Long, Sochi

We made this little gem to commemorate the historic winter games in Sochi- you may remember Avery's fantastic debut as a ski jumper back in the 2010 Vancouver games- in case you missed that remarkable cinematic achievement, it is included below. Creating a "hilarious-to-the-parents-but-to-no-one-else" Olympic video this time around was admittedly much trickier. The video below is approximately Take #15. In the original, Avery had on official looking "goggles" (broken around Take #8), Caroline was wearing a helmet made from a Tupperware bowl and she was sporting some sweet sunglasses. She also had pants on. In this take, you'll notice at the end that the pants are off, we've swapped the helmet for a soft hat, and Avery's wearing Elton John-ish sunglasses. I had also had 3 glasses of wine by this point (just kidding).

 

 Here's the original video we did back in February of 2010 with Avery as a ski jumper- way ahead of her time since the first women's ski jumping team debuted this year. Note the controversial skis:
