Description: Making a ski movie
is a constant battle of conditions, terrain and travel.
Our season began by driving all over the country chasing
down handrails, as it continued, "global warming"
and inconsistent snowfall patterns became our biggest
obstacle. This made us quickly learn that we had to
be on-call, ready to be anyplace at any time. From
greasing handrails in New York to perfect conditions
in Alaska, our crew was there at a moments notice.
Often it meant waking up at 6 am and digging for hours,
building a jump that wouldn?t be hit until the following
day. Or being stuck in AK for days on end watching
the snow fall, anticipating the moment it clears.
Then only to negotiate slides, lines, and exposures
that challenged even our most seasoned riders. In
the end we were rewarded with the most technical urban,
progressive backcountry, and big mountain lines that
has redefined skiing to us? Enjoy.
