On Film Monday, FREESKIER brings you free motion pictures from the huge world of snowboarding. With a mixture of previous and new, that is the place you will discover your weekly dose of freeski historical past, adrenaline and cinema mastery multi functional.
There are good quick movies, and there are nice quick movies. We’re unsure the place the distinction really lies, however we do know that “Don’t Name It A Comeback” by the Burrrlapz crew is a good quick movie. It simply could also be top-of-the-line we’ve ever come throughout. Whereas the group has since disbanded, this mission is a real gem. And contemplating how most of their flicks had been improbable, that’s actually saying one thing. Unimaginable cinematography, snowboarding and music choices mix to create this Pink Floyd-fueled pow journey in British Columbia. There are just a few names in right here which have gone on to grow to be staples of contemporary freeskiing. Sam Kuch, Dylan Siggers and Garrett Capel are three names in right here that you could be acknowledge. Hell, photographer Anatole Tuzlak may even be present in entrance of the lens right here!
There’s one thing extremely nostalgic but timeless in regards to the snow-covered forests of British Columbia. This crew caters to that feeling, with ample slow-motion pictures featured all through. Whereas it’s a function that may generally be abused in ski movies, it doesn’t come throughout that approach right here. The entire mission delivers an epic really feel that makes you wish to rally your personal crew and head for the hills. If that’s not a serious a part of any good ski film, then I don’t know what’s. We are able to’t wait to see extra motion from these skiers sooner or later, as each Siggers and Kuch have an element to play in ski movies arriving this fall.
