I think one of the coolest teasers/formats to date!

I love the trailer. It would be sick to do something like this during a school break.

It is not THE coolest trailer, but concept is pretty original.

that was pretty damn sick. music was sub-par at best, but the riding was real dope. cool concept as well, curious to see how it will turn out...

if you liked that you should check out sweetgrass productions. same idea but with skiers. however, i bet both of those movies will be boring as fuck.

I liked how it was original, some sick riding, but not the "best" by anymeans

Well at least they're not being hypocritical like the rest of us. Myself Included. We all say that global warming is bad and that we have to do something about it, cause we're all worried about the future of our sport yet,
we drive at least an hour both ways back and forth to the ski hill
The lift at the ski hill or the snowmobiles, or the helicopters or the cats all are burning gas and producing carbon emissions
To make the trails we ski on 1000s of trees are cut down, and there are tonnes of other things
So basically what I'm trying to say is the worst thing we can do to protect skiing, is ski. I'm happy these guys are trying to do the right thing.

It will be good if it's more documentary style. Not like trick-trick-trick-timelapse-trick-lifestyle-trick put along to music. Then it will suck.

totally with you on that one
I try to carpool as much as I can, recycle, eat organic grub, turn off unused lights, our car's even a hybrid but I'm pretty sure its still not enough to make up for my skiing and hockey and all that shit if you think about maintenance, energy, and patrolling etc.
I heard about one ski resort in the US that powers itself with a wind turbine, and although I'm not sure where it is I give them mad props. Imagine, they get so much wind 24/7 anyways, why not make use of it.
For example, I live in Vancouver and recently Cypress Mountain made a 40% terrain expansion, but all the runs are the same and they're boring. Imagine if they invested that $ into a couple wind turbines and solar panels, then I'm sure they would've saved up enough money to expand the terrain next year.
