  • Such is Life

    Release date: Fall 2008

    Produced by: Rage Films

    Directed by: Sky Pinnick

    Skiers: Kyler Cooley, Ian Cosco, Dylan Natale, Richard Permin, Mark Dvorak, Mike Mertion, AJ Burton, LJ Strenio, Nico Zacek, Gus Kenworthy, Kerek Spong, David Lesh, Mati Imbert, Ashley Battersby, Cody Townsend, Tom Wayes, Jordan Seldin, Corey Felton, Jamie Burge, Jessica Sobolowski, Elyse Saugstad, Lynsey Dyer, Ryan Oakden

    It takes the Earth 24 hours to rotate around its axis, 7 rotations in a week, and 365 spins to make a ski film. The making of a ski film is not a hobby for Rage Films, but a way of life. Their talented group of athletes train year round, works odd jobs, and dream throughout the off season of what the upcoming season will bring. The filming season begins at the first sighting of snowflakes in November and comes to conclusion with the summer heat waves mid June.

  • Pretty Good

    Release date: Fall 2009

    Produced by: Rage Films

    Directed by: Sky Pinnick

    Skiers: Kyler Cooley, Ian Cosco, Dylan Natale, Mark Drerak, Mike Mertion, LJ Strenio, Gus Kenworthy, Derek Spong, Joe Schuster, Alex Schlopy, Joss Christensen, Bene Mayr, Fabio Studer, Cody Ling

    Each fall a sense of anxiety creeps into the minds of skiers. As the weather cools we obsessively begin checking web cams, peering out windows and aimlessly driving up mountain roads in search of the first snow. When those first flakes hit the ground we grab our gear and head for the hills. Whether it’s setting up a rail at the base or hiking the trails before the chair spins, we’re just stoked to be back on the snow. Rage has always been about exposing the hottest up-and-coming stars and showcasing all aspects of freeskiing. This season was no different with new and veteran athletes working harder than ever to bring you the most progressive tricks from handrails to backcountry cliffs. We tactfully planned our season to camp out at select locations until everything was hit, new tricks were stomped and everyone was ready to move on. Freeskiing is as much about the kids skiing 200ft ski hills, as it is about tackling big mountain lines. That is why in producing this ski film we made sure to showcase the sport in all its diversity. Whether it’s a 6:00am hike on a two foot pow day in the Wasatch or a midnight rail session in Minnesota, our cinematographers were there capturing the moments.

  • Booter Crunk

    Release date: Fall 2005

    Produced by: Rage Films

    Directed by: Sky Pinnick

    Skiers: Sammy Carlson, Tim Durtschi, Kent Kreitler, Jamie Burge, Max Peters, Tosh Peters, Tom Wayes, Zach Davison, Jamie Pierre, Kyler Cooley, Seth Warner, Dylan Natale, Tommy Ellingson, Zach Crist, Reggie Crist

    This incredibly unique film takes the viewer through the exposed mountains of Europe, Alaska, Tahoe, Utah, and Oregon. RAGE worked tirelessly on over 50 backcountry jumps, a private super park with features that have never been built, and endless urban handrails. The style of freeride is redefined when riders Durtschi, Ellingson, Cooley, Warner, and Carlson step into their bindings. But what about your big mountain fix? Don’t worry. Wayes, Burge, Kreitler, the Crist Brothers and world famous cliff dropper, Jamie Pierre, slay it all. This fil has a perfectly balenced formula of music, lifestyle, big mountain, urban rails, and monster sized backcountry jumps.

  • So Far, So Hood

    Watch the 4BI9 crew in their 2008-2009 season, as they travel around the globe in an attempt to document this years most creative and progressive freeride skiing. Whether its Collin Collins and Witt Foster shredding neck deep powder, Tom Wallisch and Steve Stepp absolutely destroying the park skiing scene, or Henrik Harlaut closing down every single handrail in Salt Lake City, this year*s film has a little something for everyone to enjoy. Once criticized for our controversial and often belligerent approach to skiing, the 4BI9 crew now sits back and reflects on the lengths we have traveled since our inception. Therefore, it is at this time that we proudly present our 3rd feature length film, So Far So Hood.

    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.

  • YEAH DUDE

    Release date: Fall 2007

    Produced by: Poor Boyz Productions

    Directed by: Johnny Decesare

    Skiers: Sammy Carlson, Andreas Hatveit, JP Auclair, Julien Regnier, Chris Benchetler, John Symms, Tim Durtschi, Peter Olenick, Simon Dumont, Anthony Boronowski, Mike Henitiuk, John Spriggs, Craig Coker, Christian Sirianni, Kyler Cooley, JF Cusson, Fabien Maicrhofer

    If your’re a Poor Boyz fan, you’ve probably noticed PBP’s movies follow a formula: The worlds best riders + sick locations + sick action – filler = the best ski movie of the year. PBP’s 2007 release Yeah Dude follows the Poor Boyz tradition of scintillating action, sending crews to all points of the globe to capture the year’s best skiing. But when it came time to assemblethe pieces, PBP started expanding its repertoire. Once the snow melted, many of Yeah Dude’s athletes and crew members visited the Poor Boyz studios to give candid accounts of their seasons. The result is a much more intimate portrait of the Poor Boyz crew than you’re used to, but without any consequent lulls in the action. Yeah Dude gives you all the skiing action you expect from PBP. But Yeah Dude is unlike any ski movie you’ve seen before.
