    The film focuses on a “no plan” approach, highlighting a lifestyle of, at times, risky or unconventional choices to find the best street spots and mountain lines. It is described as a “heavy” segment-based film that aims to push the boundaries of freestyle skiing. The documentary highlights a crew that has come together to move beyond the traditional contest scene and focus on creative skiing, with an emphasis on style and freedom.

    Roughly six years ago, a group of unknown skiers and friends followed their dreams of moving out west in the hopes that the endless snowfall, massive mountains, and unending skiing opportunities of their dreams would become a way of life. That first winter they produced their inaugural film, “Look it Up”, a declaration of a new generation of freestyle skiers fostering a movement of creativity and style beyond the stagnant and oftentimes robotic nature of the contest environment- a glimpse of skiing’s future and the foundation of the 4bi9 legacy. While the past has been an unforgettable journey, the future holds even bigger things for the 4bi9 crew. Thus, it is at this time that we are proud to present our sixth feature-length film, “Keep Looking.”

    The highly anticipated drop of 4bi9 Media’s Gunnie Season is finally upon us. This is only 4bi9’s fourth feature length film, but you could consider them veterans in the game now. With a list of some of the top skiers in the world featured in their new film, it will be a must see. I recently sat down with the masterminds behind it all, AJ Dakoulas and Andrew Napier, and their assistant videographer/editor Kevin Steen for an interview about their season, and the making of Gunnie Season.
