Aggressive Instincts Productions is proud to be releasing its seventh new school freestyle skiing video in its long history of chronicling the evolution of the sport. Not only does INDESTRUCTIBLE stay true to AIP form with only the most progressive skiing footage, most talented riders and most powerful soundtrack, it also introduces a few new faces on the grommet scene and shows that the women aren’t far behind the men, either. Staying true to form with other AIP videos, INDESTRUCTIBLE delivers a skillful cast of characters, including David Crichton, Chris Turpin, Mark Abma, Jon Olsson and Scott Hibbert, among many others. Likewise, it is sure not to disappoint on the soundtrack side, either, with bands like Strung Out, Pennywise and Pulley having a strong presence throughout.

The video that started it all! There existed an unrecognized balance between the level of skiing talent on the East Coast and the rest of the country, and for many years it was necessary for skiers to first make the pilgrimage out West before they were even given the opportunity to be discovered. Balance set out to change all that, as the first ever East Coast (based!) feature.
