    Skiing is not art, and skiers are not artists. Unless, of course, skiing is art and skiers are artists? Faction’s fourth feature film exhibits pure creativity through a series of freeski sequences—from the vibrant streets of Japan, to the powdery pillows of British Columbia, to the finely-manicured terrain parks of Switzerland and Italy. Each location provides a blank canvas for the team’s artistic expression. Because nothing screams “artist” like sending large cliffs and grinding the side of buildings. In co-production with Red Bull Media House.

    Adventuring to undiscovered peaks together, plotting midnight-raids on inner-city handrails, lapping your home run until that last ray of sunshine disappears behind a distant ridge… Skiing is Collective. Some call it a tribe mentality, others call it a shared sense of purpose. This film is our definition, written by a diverse team, each with their own ideas, their own forms of expression. THE COLLECTIVE is more than the sum of its parts. No matter who you are or where you come from – it feels good to be part of something special.

    Welcome to the premiere of the Old Head New Head Podcast! Join hosts Eric Iberg (the “old head”) and Ethan Shafer (the “new head”) as they interview the most influential figures from both past and present generations.

    Our first guest is Alex Hall. Alex is one of the most influential new heads in the game right now both in the competition realm and the streets. As of 2024, Alex Hall’s medal haul includes a gold in Men’s Slopestyle at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, plus golds in Men’s Slopestyle at the 2020 Aspen X Games and in Men’s Big Air at both the 2021 and 2022 Aspen X Games, alongside other podium finishes. His video resume is equally impressive being one of the members of the MAGMA crew, appearing in the Faction movies, and more.

    Discussion with pro skier, X Games gold medalist and Olympian, Alex Hall.

    Alex is one of the best and most well-rounded skier in the world right now. He made a name for himself with his unique skiing that blends technicality with style and creativity and is now one of the biggest name in skiing. For most, winning X Games gold is a career goal and at 22 he has already won gold in 4 different X Games events (Slopestyle, Big air, Real ski and Knuckle huck).

    It was a really great talk with Alex discussing many different subjects. We talked about his 2021 season, skiing in mammoth and riding some halfpipe, going to the Olympics in 2018, filming for his self-produced video projects ”Magma” and ”Magma 2”, the current state of slopestyle skiing, the mindset and strategy going into events like X Games and filming street for his incredible 2021 real ski video.
