Boyne City, Mich., (Jan. 18, 2010) Drift Innovation, manufacturers of the HD170 helmet camera, and Nick Nixon Productions hit the slopes in unison to bring Ski Backward TV (SBTV) the ultimate pipe and park scene in Colorado. The eight-episode TV series will be featuring point of view footage captured by the talented riders wearing the Drift HD170.

Footage from the most recent episode can be seen here: http://vimeo.com/18807648.

The SBTV episodes are scheduled to air on Saturday nights for the remainder of the 2010-11 season on TV Vail 8 and TV8 Summit County. The series is produced and directed by former professional ski racer, Nick Nixon, who over the years has developed a name for his film aptitude. His dedication, ingenuity and experience in both the athlete and video production field, convey passion and excitement in all his productions.

Nixon’s experience and knowledge of ski films led him to discover the Drift HD170, as it is a favorite among winter sports enthusiasts. Noted specifically for its integrated LCD screen and wireless remote control, 170-degree rotating lens, and longer life battery that is expected to nearly double your recording time in colder temperatures.

“SBTV is about bringing the talent, culture and progressivism of the Colorado resort’s park and pipe scene to the viewers. Point of view content is key to the success of reliving the experience of the rider,” said Nixon. “The Drift HD170 not only executes excellent video quality, but also, features such as the LCD screen are very helpful for confirming the desired shot and eliminating time editing unwanted footage.”
