Go out into the world, they say? see it for yourself!
But in an age where any destination is in the palm of your hand- just a click away, what is left to truly explore?

Level 1 examines the universal dialect of moving down snow on two feet through a lens of fresh perspective- documenting the outer niches of a sport pushed under the rug by the modern day ski zeitgeist.

From the secret valleys of Switzerland, the ancient cities of Estonia, to the rowdy rope-tows of Minnesota- follow us around the globe as we capture skiing in its purest form. It?s a Small World, after all.
