My friend Ian Boll made this documentary about the stept crew and our life. It's 20 minutes and a little deep, but if you ever watch urban in movies, I hope this sheds some light on what we do. Enjoy...

I do like this. And it's so true when he said those people died doing what they love. I'm not sure about you but I'd way rather die skiing doing sometimg i love than die on a hospital bed when I'm 90. There is so much to the sport of skiing and everybody has a different view and that's something to love. Every crew/rider is different and that's what makes the sport the best. Whether you just learned a backflip and are more stoked than ever, or you stop an urban rail of that caliber, do what makes you happy. Live the way you want. Push yourself. Ski.
.And you have absolutly no respect for other peoples opinions. Stop talking like your right all the time, especially when its a very debatable topic. He isnt a "pussy" because he has his own respectable opinion on high risk skiing.
That being said I think when people are trying things like cam there brain functions at such a high level that it is survival instinct. It makes things like this possible when it may not seem plausible. Im glad we have those type of people in our sport to push the endless possiblitys. However there does need to be some reason and people need to understand there limits.
