    The winter of 2006 brought the Meatheads their biggest challenge ever… the infamous Eastern Thaw. Devastating rain pummeled the region for the better part of two months and with little hope left, the crew took desperate measures: a tribal ski sacrifice to the Snow Gods. Miraculously, the cold air returned and the Meatheads were there to reap the gory. Filmed in High Definition and Super 8mm, Snow Gods will take you across the Eastern United States and Canada with the gang as they tear into the steeps of Stowe, legendary powder of Jay Peak, gargantian moguls of Killington and perfectly sculpted jumps of Sunday River. Gaze upon the remote Chic Choc Mountains of Quebec, six kink handrails and exclusive footage of the first ever Eastern Superpark! Snow Gods is the story of a glorious comeback in the face of insurmountable odds. Get inspired… the Snow Gods have answered you prayers.

    Documentary

    Release date: Fall 2010

    Directed by: Riley Poor

    Starring: Simon Dumont, Tanner Hall, Mike Douglas, Michael Spencer, Johnny Decesare

    A Film about XGames Gold Medalist Simon Dumont by Filmmaker Riley Poor Over the last ten years, several action sports have legitimized themselves as professional sports on a global level. Sports where ten years ago, participating athletes paychecks were barely covering their hospital bills, and all of their futures relied heavily on broadening these relatively new sports mainstream appeal. Following this movement is an entire generation dubbed “Generation X,” that nearly ten years later has managed to tip these sports into the mainstream. Together, action sports are captivating a worldwide audience and proving that not all sports have rules. Professional Freeskier Simon Dumont reflects a generation that has changed the state of sports today and will continue to push these ever-changing sports into the future. “Transitions” is a look into one of action sports’ most relevant personalities and the paradigm shift taking place in sports and youth culture today.
