Seeing new trailers and premiere dates getting dropped got me wondering which ski movie are you most exited about?

I'm probably most exited to see what Bunch has done with fpv drones.

So many good videos set to drop, haven't been this excited in a minute. Here's a list of people dropping videos, off the top of my head.

Child labor
trashparty
forre
frantic guys
daycare
magma 3
vexed
paakku
the runge
mangeau
hazard network
faction
bdog Activity
OS
tanner hall XL
entourage
joey kraft Water the plants
VVX
MTL 2
carnage
good company
harlaut Brushino
the bunch
on3p 6

Definitely missing some but a pretty crazy lineup I think. Haven't seen anything regarding a video from stand or digit but then again I'm pretty out of the loop these days. Maybe no digit video since some of those guys were filming for on3p 6.

dude what a list. after seeing the on3p 6 trailer I am HYPED to the moon for that shit. got me fired up.
also super excited to see what the CHEF boys have been cooking up.


I feel like I say this every year but we are definitely in a golden era of street skiing right now, especially after reading that list.

It’s not a cutty street film if it doesn’t have the following:

1. Homies shaving homies head clip
2. Skate stopper removal clip
3. Dapping up 12 of your closest homies after getting the trick clip
4. Inside of dirty ass van clip

This is for sure one of the best eras of street skiing if not the best. The focus is all about going out and creating something that is interesting and unique, and less on who is doing the craziest and most technical tricks. Some of the best videos feature skiing that is honestly mediocre, but the energy and vision behind the project make it timeless. At the same time though, we still have crews like forre doing absolutely nutty superhero shit that is just as gnarly as any stept movie. There is just so much variety and different visions for what street skiing is and can be, and way less of a hierarchy in terms of one crew being better than the next crew.

the only thing that could really improve the current street skiing scene is $$$, really stoked to see line put out a project, on3p returning to film projects, Vishnu as always doing their part, but I still think there is a long way to go in terms of ski companies directly supporting street skiing.

Great video. I love heavy street riding but there’s a special place in my heart for the simple projects focused on good music choice, perfect filming despite how new or old the camera being used is, creative spot selection, and squeaky clean riding. Shit that’s more relatable. I mean yeah your mega fed you did on a flat loading dock rail was cool, but I’d rather see something more creative and has me inspired to go ride. Stuff where I’m like, hey, I can do that. Stuff that proves you don’t have to be the most talented skier to form a good ass product.

For real. It is crazy impressive that they made an entertaining video with zero spins over 180. I feel like that video marked a huge shift in street skiing. Spot selection and filming/editing style is now more important to a lot of people than the tricks you’re actually doing

Honestly the skiers aren’t really my cup of tea. Like I don’t care to watch ahall or hunter throw dubs on some backcountry slush booter. Then again I’m just biased because I only like non jump stuff like rails n such lol. And I’m also biased/salty because I fucking suck at jumps lol.


Owen is an incredibly talented individual. Definitely top 5 filmer/editor all time no questions asked. However the recent edits themselves haven’t been my cup of tea really. The clickbaity vibes and rather basic song choices kinda irk me.

no hate on them, I’m just a picky ass individual when it comes to content lol. But damn did that trailer look like it’s going to be something great. Maybe this movie will put me on the fan train haha.

That’s fair enough. Owen praise is so deserved. Dude has done so much for skiing. I think that clickbait vibes were definitely supposed to be ironic. I understand that not everyone gotta like everything but you got to give them creds for the amount of quality content they put out. No one else in skiing is competing at such a high level and still putting out videos and full parts.

This is true 100%. Like I said not the biggest fan of “comp skiers” at heart usually but massive respect to those who still hit street and have a dedicated focus on actual content/edits. Non-instagram stuff.

Super good skier I just don’t fuck with the non-originality on his end regarding spot selection. Also have heard some sus stuff about him hitting some rails anyway that he knew other crews have already done and were saving for their next video. and dropped his clips before their next video happened.


stole your joke and said it a little louder so your class laughs at the other kid type vibes.

Do you ever feel like he just makes it look too easy though? There is no suspense it’s like “of course he will land it and do a crazy trick it’s a hall.” I kinda feel the same way about t wall and e dollo, they have set the bar so high for themselves it’s almost hard for me to be impressed by anything they do sometimes

I listened to the hunter hess episode of two planker pod recently and he talked about how what they’re trying to accomplish is larger than life, superhero type stuff, similar to what was going down 10 to 15 years ago. They are trying to push the limits of what is possible on skis and I got a lot of respect for that. I think its a pretty different focus from what most street crews are doing right now, which is oriented primarily around creative spot and trick selection. You definitely have a point though, hunter and Owen talked about the u haul wall ride as if it was an NBD when JP laced that shit up a decade ago. I’m just glad we have so much variety these days

DM me proof cuz I'm not trying to call you a liar but the last time I read some claims about pros being shitty on here they turned out to be straight myths, like Seamus Flanagan being left off one of the strictly movies because they "didn't like him". Or the one about Sam never winning superunknown because of his personality, which if you ever talked to anyone at Level 1 or Berman you would know that's not the case at all. People can twist stuff and it's not like there are unlimited spots in the world, I've pulled up to spots I thought were original and found them already set up, or even pictures from 2005 of people hitting them. Especially in major street cities, everyone's hitting everything all winter.

was told to me over a year ago by said members so my memory could be a little foggy BUT

CL boys found a super unique/crazy rail or something. Nbd. Hit it, got a shot, put a lock on it, marked the lock with their tag or whatever to let whoever know, hey, we’re tryna save this if you find it. Ahall apparently cut the lock off and just hit it anyway, and if I remember correctly he included the clip in one of his vids. Before CL even dropped theirs.


take that with a grain of salt but that’s what I remember from the convo.


also just realized about the mega long rail in magma3 trailer: Will Wesson did it first in a level1 movie or something. I’d attach the pic (stole it from another thread) but my fucking app crashes every damn time I try to upload a pic and I lose all the bullshit I typed out 😂

but yeah this is what I’m basing my harsh ass opinion off of lol. Watched security notice like a few weeks ago and I recognized just so many damn abd spots. Or maybe I’m wrong and there wasn’t actually that many in there. Guess I got some video homework to do tonight.

and nah dude don’t feel bad for calling me a liar or anything cause if you got an opinion or whatever you gotta be able to back it up with something. Something I’ve realized I haven’t really done in this controversial take haha.
