CERTIFIABLE, like its predecessors, has taken a big leap forward from the previous year in showcasing the world’s best up-and-coming new schoolers, as well as many established pros. The common thread through every Aggressive Instincts video is to unveil tomorrow’s stars today. Whether it be Cusson and Auclair in NCD FREESTYLE ’97, or new-comers Hibbert, Crichton and Paquette in CERTIFIABLE, Aggressive Instincts Productions is always there to pre-empt the popularity of new school freestyle’s dominant riders. This year’s film not only captures scenes from major big air events like the X Qualifier, the US Open, Tremblant’s Cote Obscur and the Orage Big Air, among others, but it is also teeming with park footage, eastern-style backcountry booters, and even its own “urban” segment featuring summer and winter grinding on the streets of Ottawa, ON. In exposing newcomers like Abma, Buchar and Bushfield, as well as the best of the best in professional talent, this movie will give riders everywhere a taste of what’s to come in the world of new school freestyle, and will leave every viewer with the belief that these skiers/maniacs truly are CERTIFIABLE.

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.

Spurred by the re-invention of twin tip skis in recent years, the skiing industry and culture had been at once revolutionized. Influenced by these recent changes in the perception of skiing, a new crop of riders is now pushing the limits and definition of the sport in ways never-before imagined; they are, the Second Generation. Shot on location throughout North America, Europe, and Japan, Second Generation features the newest and most influential players in the new-school freeskiing scene, and follows them throughout the 00-01 season in their quest to push the limits of the sport. Featuring the most progressive skiing stunts and exploits ever caught on film, including Dave Crichton’s still legendary first movie segment, Second Generation will forever change the way you look at the sport of skiing. From 100-foot urban rail slides, to parking-lot step-ups onto rooftops, back-country kickers, and everything in-between, Level 1′s sophomore effort will leave you astounded by skiing’s recent progression.
