    Every skier knows what its like to call a few friends, pack up, and head out for a trip. Rather than spend another winter chasing storms, five of the top pros and their closest pals embark on their own interpretations of a trip of a lifetime, taking them deep into new and uncharted territory. Sean Pettit ventures further in his home turf of British Columbia. Watch as he trades the comfy cat lodge for a glacier camp – finding unexpected sources of fun in the backcountry. Pep Fujas pinpoints a remote AK lighthouse to use as a home base, where he launches a heli expedition and finds fresh terrain to attack. Karl Fostvedt takes urban skiing to a whole new level by spending his time searching for the perfect jib, drop and jump amidst the concrete jungle that is Detroit. Julien Regnier is found trekking the grueling 100km historic high alpine route between Chamonix, France and Zermatt, Switzerland. Finally, Bobby Brown brings the crew back together for a spring session to wrap a season that wont be soon forgotten. Tracing Skylines follows these five skiers on some incredible trips.

    A hard-core action ski movie from the controversial and charismatic Brad Holmes. Chainsaw is the definitive company of the genre…

    Some of the world’s best freeskiers throw down the gauntlet, with cutting edge skiing and nu-skool tricks. Filmed on three continents then wrapped in a 70’s cop-drama spoof, as only Holmes can…

    Two rebel detectives, Starskis and Hucks, pursue a cult of monoskiers called the: Morbid Midnight Monoskiing Militia (more commonly known as the: “MMMM”). The cult’s leader “Baron Monomania” (GlenPlake) and his goons, intend to melt-down the sacred golden skis in an attempt to make people finally realize how evily-cool monoskiing is… but not if Starskis and Hucks have anything to say about it!!!

    With good intentions, dumb-luck, and the help of a pimp called Gummy Bear, the two detectives battle to make the world a better place for ski-kind everywhere.

    A documentary feature film set in the world of big mountain skiing, The Edge of Never is a real life coming of age saga about the tribe of skiers who challenge the biggest, most dangerous mountains in the world. In 1996 extreme-skiing legend Trevor Petersen was killed in Chamonix, France. Nine years later, skiing icon Glen Plake decides it’s time for Trevor’s 15-year-old son, Kye, to ski the route that killed his father and join the tribe of big-mountain skiers. In this thrilling film, three generations of skiers mentor Kye as he attempts to finish his father’s final run. A ripping adventure tale of a young man coming of age, The Edge of Never is also a rich and subtle portrait of men and women who live big in the face of their greatest fears. Written and directed by William A. Kerig, produced by Peter Schweitzer, based on the book of the same title written by Kerig, The Edge of Never was shot on location in Chamonix, France.
