Sherpas: Bella Coola Segment
Posted December 11, 2013 by 1. Ed Dujardin
This is, in our opinion, the best segment in ski movies from this year. Callum Pettit, Kye Peterson, and JP Auclair go off. It features two out of four nominations (and the eventual winner) for Line of the Year. Enjoy.

Candide: EarlyCamp Park at Val Thorens
Posted December 9, 2013 by 1. Ed Dujardin
Candide slays everything. No other skier can claim Freeride World Tour champion and X Games gold. Check out Candide crushing the EarlyCamp Park at Val Thorens. The first shot, and the fact he stayed on his feet, proves that he is in fact, a ninja. In case you need more proof, watch this, too.
