^^That song is from JP Auclair's segment. So good.

Love that I can see him throwing the backflip on the GT after the first few chords of the song.

Good music, good editing, and then that fucking flair in the pipe with a weird hat on, yes, it is epic.

The first legit (not wme ) film I saw was Refresh. Tom Wallisch and Phil Casabon's segs got me into park riding. There was definitely a point in the past where I could probably name every trick in order in that movie.

mine as well.

was right before my first time hitting a resort ever. friend got into skiing before me and made me watch it. was planning on pursuing snowboarding. did not know freeskiing existed. needless to say, i bought my first pair of twins soon there after. tanner hall and pep fujas segments made my jaw drop. i was utterly and immediately consumed

PBP reasons then under the influence

But what got me really into freeskiing was a FREESKIER magazine i got at a ski shop and later subscribed to.
