Anyone excited for any upcoming movies? I want Attack of La Nina from MSP and The Grand Bizzare from PBP. I just got TGR One for the road and i thought it was sick but the soundtrack coulda been better. anybody else seen it?

I've seen Grand Bizarre, One For the Road, and The Ordinary Skier. Loved one for the road, had really good editing/filming in my opinion (aside from the baldface park segment, which had some cool stuff as far as artsy editing goes, but was kinda boring). Thought TGR did a really good job at making big mountain skiing look fun, exciting, and super intense. Ian's segment and some of the lines Darren Rahlves had in AK were crazy, also the Baldface pow segment was sick, got me so stoked to ski. Def their best film in along time. Personally, I really enjoyed the soundtrack, which i thought helped the flow of the movie, but thats just my opinion. I liked how they included some more urban this year too, obviously you don't watch TGR for urban, but it mixes it up abit, which I thought helped.

its the best movie i have seen so far from this year, the flow is a little strange its more like a continuous edit but the skiing is insane and i loved the soundtrack.

mcintosh's seg was definitely the best part of the movie. although the intro with the truck and what not was a little bit out there and was somewhat boring.

How badly was he injured in the crash? They hint that he broke his femur in the preview, but I never really checked it out...

Don't forget Griffin Post. Him and Ligare fucking slay.

Honestly, the intro and closing segment were my personal favourites, and the first front flip gives me chills.

Sage had the most aesthetically pleasing big mountian seggy ever. Just absolutely gorgeous skiing and line choices, you almost forgot how gnarly it was.

Ian mac charges harder than anyone...by a lot. skiing stupid fast, stupid gnarly lines every line. I cannot stress how rediculous his seggy was. most impressive big mountain seggy i have ever seen, by a lot.


I also thought the soundtrack kicked some serious ass, and really gave off a stoking vibe to the different seggys. The park shoots sucked, but whatever. the urban was actually really sick and stylie. The non skiing parts sucked, but the charging of the gnarliest spine walls ever seen in a movie more than made up for it.


Considering that this was a really down year for ski movies, i thought One For The Road was the best. The dudes straight killed it.


Take it for what its worth though, because i love sage, like maryo likes wallisch...

where did you guys order One For the Road from?

 I ordered from Sportsflicks.com. They said they were supposed to ship out Oct. 13 and I still haven't received the notification that they have shipped.
