We brapped and we skied. And then we had to put up with summer and impatiently wait to do it again.
Prior to everything shutting down, last season was really looking up. A competition in Canada to start it off followed by backcountry pillow lines and a deepening snowpack made for a fantastic start. Then a trip down to Taos, NM for another comp and soon after I was found on the couch waiting for the call to see whether or not the competition season would be cancelled. With my finger on the button to purchase a flight to Washington for the next event, I got word of the cancellation. So after having two seasons in a row end short for me (injuries and COVID) I couldn't be more excited for this winter. With snow forecasted for much of the West this week, it seems like the perfect time to get people excited for winter! Big plans in the works for a video series this upcoming season, so let it snow!
Nuance is a skiing video designed to explore and showcase the small, subtle aspects that exist in the sport of skiing. After facing a difficult period due to a badly broken leg a few winters ago, Peak Performance athlete Garrett Capel decided to look deeper into skiing and focus on the elements that truly make him passionate about being a skier.
Separated into two acts, nuance highlights these elements.
In Act 1, the film showcases the power of friendship in skiing—the feeling of having all your friends in one place, generating a collective energy; the satisfaction of a high-five; the funniest things anyone’s ever said; and the sunset at the end of the day, when everyone’s spirits are high, and you can’t stop smiling. These are the moments that matter and should never be forgotten.
In Act 2, the focus shifts to the design elements of our environment: the texture of the snow after a wind event, the way the sun reflects off the snow as you carve through it, the vast scale of the mountains you play in, and all the other details we often overlook.
Starring Leif Wilson, Adam Kuch, Mark Hendrickson and Garrett Capel. Cinematography by Lucas Reid

Third Year in a row baby. Back and better than ever before. Better Stunts, Better Skits, and better cameras. Better grab your homies, crack open some cold ones, and get ready for the ski movie experience of a lifetime. Like you've never seen before. Bustah.

"We went to get a quick pre-work shred in this morning but weren't counting on this! We usually dig out the cornice a bit on this line to make an entrance and to test the slope stability below. But it doesn't normally do this. It stepped down 4-5 meters and ran all 3000ft down to the flats below - then all the way across them, pulling all the snow off the face down to the bed surface rocks. I guess we need to manage for low probability, high consequence in some places on the Coast this year. Be careful out there friends!(Sounds off bc of an unexpectedly high number of four letter words)

Winter 2017 was definitely one for the books! Found a bunch of random shots on my phone and computer and decided to pull an edit together. Thanks to everyone who pointed an iPhone in my direction this winter! You know who you are! Cheers to new snow and a new season.

After a two year sabbatical from filming with Matchstick Productions, last season Hoji reunited with the team for what would turn out to be one of his most enjoyable…
Who hasn’t dreamed of putting their life on hold to embark on an adventure where only your imagination sets the boundaries for what is possible? A trip where time stands still, far removed from the responsibilities, social engagements, and smartwatches of today’s fast-paced 21st century lifestyle. Cody (@c.cirillo) and Kellyn (@1kellynwilson) turned this dream into a reality. Since they both love to ski, spend time in the great outdoors, and dream all day long of making turns in untracked powder, the two opted for the simple life, one without complication, one where they just take their time. And for unlimited freedom, what better way than to voyage back through time to pick up the ideal travel companion? The couple found and refurbished an old 1960s school bus, the key ingredient to cook up the ultimate road trip! Nevertheless, maintaining their home on wheels has kept the two wanderers on their toes throughout the journey. From being resourceful to winging it, from the Colorado wilderness to Rogers Pass near Revelstoke by way of Utah’s greatest snow on earth, and through their quest for an alternative lifestyle, the adventure takes shape. An adventure where sunrises and sunsets set the pace far from today’s social norms, an adventure filled with incredible encounters, untracked snow, fun, and sharing.
All my favorite shots from utah's unreal 18-19 winter so far, not including park stuff (that'll come after my trip to mt hood). This was my 10th season skiing the wasatch mountains and it was by far my favorite. Dropped out of school, built more jumps, toured up more peaks, and overall had more powder filled smiles this season than I ever have. There's still a little bit of skiing left to be had, but I wanted to make an edit of what I've done so far. Thanks for filming Stephen Pille, Dixon Lewis, Jeff Stevens, Jason Child and anyone I may have forgotten, you guys rock like a narrow canoe.

Last winter I decided to spend my time between projects enjoying the season and let myself experience it as it came. With the help of a bunch of my friends I worked on a short analog film along the way. I tried to give myself no rules or expectations other than to point the camera at what we were doing and capture what felt, to me, as special moments in time. Whether that was skiing, snow skating, pow surfing, playing with our puppy or just hanging out with friends it was truly special taking time to just do something and get out of it, and feel Free, in your body.

Words from Garrett & Ben:
This is the result of 3 weeks on the road, two homies, and a video camera.
Our whole inspiration for this trip and video was to simplify the process behind making a ski project. Rather than using fancy expensive cameras to focus in and highlight the micro details in 4k mega mo, we wanted to purely showcase the bigger more important things - which to us were skiing and having a good time. We purchased a camcorder on marketplace for $350 and road-tripped from Revelstoke to Jackson Hole, and then back up to Whistler.
We really hope that you enjoy this roadtrip video, and that it will inspire you to call up a homie and go skiing!
