Snowsport movies you have to see this season!
TGR – Tightloose
TGR (Teton Gravity Research) are releasing Tight Loose to celebrate 21 years of creating ski films. The group have been shredding across the world and have been pushing the limits for many years. The whole film’s message is about being prepared to be out of control. From India to Alaska the group pull off unspeakable tricks and drops in some of the most breathtaking backdrops!
Shades of Winter – Between
On the back of Sandra Lahnsteiner’s previous films Shades of Winter and Pure comes the cinematic adventure Between. The film is female centric and focuses on the beauty of skiing around the world. It is filled to the brim with top female skiers like Olympic Gold medal-winning alpine skier Julia Mancuso and World freeride champion Nadine Wallner. Between also features an inspirational tribute to Matilda Rapaport who tragically died earlier this year.
Salomon TV - Guilt trip
Salomon TV released a ski movie this year on YouTube that follows glaciologist Alan Hubbard and riders Chris Rubens, Kalen Thorien, Simon Thomson and Pierre Muller to reach Greenland’s second highest peak. The movie is not your typical ski film and actually shows the extent of global warming in the area. The expedition is put into question when they discover their aircraft is unable to reach the destination.
Travis Rice – The Fourth Phase
Snowboard legend Travis Rice plans a 16,000-mile trip to follow the hydrological cycle around the north Pacific. Expect epic scenery and backcountry rides that will make your jaw drop. If you loved Art of Flight then you’ll definitely enjoy The Fourth Phase!
