Salomon Freeski TV just dropped their latest episode in their on-going web series of clips. Episode 8 takes a look at the ski culture and passion of Alta locals. Featuring rippers Leo Ahrens, Jamey Parks, Carston Oliver, and other area locals shredding Alta’a famous pow, trees, and steeps both in bounds and in the expansive backcountry.

One of North America’s Pow skiing meccas, Alta is a true classic and a rare experience in the skiing world.

This clip was produced along with Sweetgrass Productions, featuring their soulful vibe and unique camera work. Very artsy…very awesome! The following is taken from Salomon Freeski TV:

“Alta, Utah has almost a cult-like following of devoted powder skiers. Leo Ahrens, Jamey Parks, and the many generations of Alta shredders show us the soul of skiing is alive and well in one of the best powder skiing spots on earth.”

Tomorrow night, November 15th Telemark Skier Magazine and Josh Madsen are presenting their new telemark film, “Loyalty.” The screening will be at 7:30pm at the Palm Theater and will be $10 at the door with all proceeds going to the Telluride Ski & Snowboard Club.

Big Mountain skiers Josh Madsen and Alex Paul will be in attendance and giving away some awesome prizes including Icelantic Skis, Hammerhead tele-bindings, a GoPro helmet cam along with a ton of other goodies!

The following was taken from Telemark Skier Magazine:

“Loyalty explores the revolutionary youth telemark movement while also introducing some of the most profound telemark skiing on the planet. The flick blends appearances from TSM Crew, a first-of-its kind athlete/content creation team including the likes of JT Robinson and Weston D, along with performances by innovative newcomers like Kate Hourihan, Tony Gill and Dylan Garner. “This La Nina year made for one of the longest winters I can remember,” Madsen says. “The powder just kept on coming.” In scenes both on and off-piste, the film showcases the sport’s most avant-garde moves in the deep powder and in the park. “One of my favorite days this year was filming Dylan Garner doing tricks in the park that I’ve never seen before,” Madsen adds. “It reminds me of how important youth are to the progress of this sport.”
