The International Freeskiing Film Festival and NS Awards are just two months away. The 2nd annual event will be going down in Montreal from September 12th-15th, and everyone will be there, so you should too.
Stay tuned to NS over the next month or so for news and updates on what will be going down at the festival, as Felix Rioux and JF DuRocher (along with some assistance from the lovely NS staff) are neck deep in planning what will undoubtedly be the biggest and best way to kick off the season.
But for now, it's time for you amateur film companies to submit your movie to us for the expanded Am division of this year's NS Awards, which will be going down on Saturday, September 13th.

This past Saturday I arrived in Aspen Colorado for Golden Globes of skiing, the Powder Awards. I was up for a handful of awards including best jib, manmade air, and male performance.. It was my 3rd tie attending such an industry heavy event and it was pretty much exactly what it was last year, a complete booze fest. I have to thank Poor Boyz, cuz without them I would have never won these awards. They back me on all my ideas, even though some of them are crazy. I a excited to keep filming this season and into the future with them. All together it was fun night and I walked away with two powder awards, best man made air and best jib (best jib?). Below are photos from the event, enjoy.
