first decent, afterbang, 91 words for now, futureproof, lost in transition, mtn-lab. anything with david Benedict or travis rice and travis parker in it

You should definitely get the Best of the TB Series. 10 year retrospective of Standard Films films and the riders in them. Really good. Bit of a potted history of an influential period in the growth of snowboarding (1992 – 2001) and 10 years’ worth of bangers from the best riders by one of the most consistently good film companies out there.

Need to add “In Short” to the list of Benedek films. Really nicely shot, really cool film. And it kicks off with a section at Halifax dryslope. what’s not to like!?

And “Futureproof” is one of Absinthe’s best.

And the Jeremy Jones “Deeper” and “Further” are great if you like the adventurey, mountaineery, big lines stuff. “Higher” being released next year.

Pfffft, trays, etc.

😉

That said, Art of Flight is rather good.

anything by Absinthe Films is worth a watch 😀

so going to miss a boarding holiday this year again 🙁

If you can find it

Bikecar

Nothing mindblowing trick wise but it always got me amped to hoon around and find piste side hits

I much prefer Absinthe’s stuff to Art of Flight aka “Adventures of the Red Bull Helicopter”

There’s a TV series of the Art of Flight which is worth a watch – has quite a lot of ‘making of’ stuff on it. It’s on Netflix I think.

Lines is good – about the history of Alaska big mountain snowboarding.

That

Subjekt Haakonsen is my all time favourite

We Ride – The Story of Snowboarding (1h30m):

That’s it that’s all is pretty much the best snowboarding movie I reckons

That’s it, that’s all
Predecessor to Art of Flight, better in my opinion
Full movie online – http://www.kewego.co.uk/video/iLyROoafIv32.html

Both Deeper and Further by Jeremy Jones are good, big mountain riding.

Daytripper is my all time favourite.

Not really a snowboard movie per se but Kevin Pearces The Crash Reel is some documentary

I didn’t like art if flight…..

All the absinthe films.

I’m listening to the Daytripper soundtrack at the moment! Logged on to say how flipping amazing it is, and there it is already.

Ah yes, some top 90’s tunes from the happy campers and moloko iirc

Daytripper is class but don’t forget that other vhs wearer outter……….. ODDMANOUT 8)

I REALLY REALLY want Odd Man Out on DVD…I haven’t seen it in years..

The problem I have with Art of Flight is that having seen it on BluRay all of my old snowboard DVDs (even The Collective) look like I’m watching them with the wrong prescription lenses… 🙁

Another vote for odd man out, proper old school film. Just picked up a copy on DVD from eBay for £5
First watched it in les arc’s in about 96 or 97 when I was out there for the season.

Thread saved for winter nights, bring on January 🙂

If anyone’s got a copy of In Short, I’d be very interested in me having a copy. Bought it, lent it to I forgot who… 🙁

+1 for anything absinthe, Futureproof was one of their best I reckon. This is pretty nuts too:

The ridge he gets dropped on at 6:40 is beyond terrifying.

Valhalla. It has some depth, some story, some reason to watch for one hours.
Most of the snow movies are just a bunch of riding clips stitched together.

This!

Jeremy Jones’ Deeper and Further! This is as anti-Red Bull as it can get. All the approaches are climbing or skinning with split boards – earn your turn. Or if we are to apply mtb term (I hope it never gets to the snow community) – ENDURO.
I believe there were no helis involved even for the shooting, may be only for logistics and crew transportation.

further and deeper are good. seen them.
watched the nike film never not last night

TB9 purely for Johan Olofson’s section. In fact, anything with Johan…
