It’s June and You Have to Let Go…

It’s June. It’s June and you’re reevaluating what makes you smile. The cold, the velocity, and the thrills are now gone. For the first time since November, you aren’t sure where your skis/snowboards are. In a few weeks from now you’ll find them in your closet/garage/backyard. They’ll look at you with despise through rusty edges and frayed sidewalls. You can’t imagine walking through […]

This complex combination makes for some truly invigorating swimming hole experiences. […]

Red Bull/MSP’s 2-Year Movie Trailer: “Days of My Youth”

Red Bull & MSP just released their latest trailer for their 2-year movie project: “Days of My Youth”. This won’t be their last trailer for this movie.

There is a line at the end that is some sort of long, skinny, tunnel chute that is very cool. It does seem since Sherpa Cinema’s “All. I. Can.” and the explosion of internet ski porn that people now have to have a story associated with their ski movie. MSP hasn’t done a storyline style ski movie […]
