NE Heli Ski and Snowboard Movie Picks For 2015/2016

Want to see new heli skiing movies and snowboarding movies from 2015 and 2016? You are in luck because the following ski movies were hand picked as new additions to our Northern Escape Heli Skiing lodge library here in Terrace, British Columbia, Canada.

Warren Miller Entertainment’s 66th snow sports film. Watch JT Holmes, Seth Wescott, Caroline Gleich, Steven Nyman, Marcus Caston and more as they pursue turns on the mountains of our dreams: Chamonix, Alaska’s Chugach, the Chilean Andes, Utah’s Wasatch and the mightiest range of them all: the Himalaya. These athletes are masters in their element, and with every cliff drop, perfect line and neck-deep powder turn, they motivate us. Warren Miller once said, “A pair of skis are the ultimate transportation to freedom,” and this year, we’re chasing storms, snow, lines that live on the world’s highest peaks, and the freedom that these things grant us.

As the days turn into weeks and the weeks roll into months, it’s the moments when everything seems to come together in perfect harmony that resonate the loudest. For those who anticipate winter’s arrival with frothing mouths and the dreams of what may come,this past year came with an unfamiliar set of struggles as these perfect moments became more and more elusive. But for the TGR team, this only hardened their pursuit of winter’s rewards. Through the highs and lows of a curious season, they come to find that the moments found on the other side of adversity are the greatest moments of all.

Times change, just as each season gives way to the next. For passionate skiers around the globe, however, the time of year can never undermine the enthusiasm for their next great day on snow. Regardless of weather, conditions, or the effort required to get there, “a bad day of skiing still beats a good day at work.” As summer eases into fall and fall eventually fades to winter, dreams of skiing occupy our minds and we focus all of our energy on returning to the mountains. Featuring jaw-dropping action from Alaska, Iceland, British Columbia, Japan, Colorado, Italy, and New England, this film captures the spirit of nine skiers who go to great lengths for the sport that they love.

“This is, by far, my favourite ski movie in the last 10 years, it is definitely not another boring ski movie.” Owen Day, Assistant Guiding Operations Manager.

We join skier and mountain guide, Vivian Bruchez, as he explores his backyard on several steep adventures in a winter of exceptional snow, in the company of a few talented friends. Previously impassable and unthinkable routes become a tangible reality when skill, experience and conditions align. Put on your skis and sharpen your crampons as Vivian takes us along for the ride with a skier’s-eye view of his adventures. Plunged into the midst of the action, experience standing on a 50° slope as you psyche yourself up to make the first turn. Only a few have what it takes to keep their heads in this world turned on its’ side – laughing and joking as they go.

This is some of the most incredible and moving ski cinematography ever seen; an amazing movie showing a vision becoming reality. Watch the entire video online, plus check out the amazing behind the scenes exposé of Eclipse.
