Face shot after face shot after face shot.

THIS PAST WEEK I was in Fernie, British Columbia, to meet up with Matador CEO Ross Borden and filmmaker Brian Chu of the Werehaus. We were shooting video at Fernie Alpine Resort, one of the ski hills on BC’s “Powder Highway.” On the second day of shooting, we teamed up with local 18-year-old freeskier Dylan Siggers. While he flew off cliffs and front-flipped around the mountain, we rolled tape.

The powder in this is almost unfathomable. I don’t quite understand how he can see going through these trees in the video, but it makes for a hell of a show. Dylan not only rips, but he is a talented young filmmaker as well.
