Roots | Foundations of Freeskiing (Full Movie) 4K

The backcountry for me is kind of like the ultimate playground. It's just all so perfect like when you go out there and you get on top of a line and you see like what just gets made by the elements and the wind and the sun and the snow and everything and how you can just ride down it and there's like perfect jumps formed everywhere like everywhere you look around every corner every notch that you go through you can look and be like that is a perfect jump right there that is a perfect spine or a perfect ridge or cliff so just like kind of the being able to keep exploring that is definitely why I ski backcountry it's what's around the next corner right now we got a speciality for you your personality in what you're doing Usually when I feel pressure before a technical descent I try to really let it sink in and try to remind myself why the pressure is there and to know that it has a purpose and it's actually there to like keep you alive and you know make you aware of your environment and adrenaline otherwise I wouldn't do what I do and I wouldn't seek to get out of my comfort zone on my skis but I also approach adrenaline with you know a bit of caution because it's a reaction your body creates when you're in danger or when you put yourself in danger so yes it can make you feel super confident but it's also what you feel when you have done something on your skis that you probably shouldn't have done Just sliding down the mountain going fast, cruise around and just be disconnected from the world you know like sometimes the homies does the job and it's the best day ever Sometimes you just want to be by yourself listening to music being disconnected and just you know mob the mountain or just I don't know do something in the park I don't know what makes skiing fun, probably skiing it's probably it's the best thing ever like without skiing I probably wouldn't be here so it's pretty sick, skiing's fun We can never say it wrong Skiing definitely has created a lot of friendships in my life just because it's putting you in these places and situations and mindsets that you know is just totally passion-driven And when you get multiple people with that same mindset and that same passion it's just going to create for opportunities to vibe and just relate with people in a way that you don't do necessarily on a day-to-day basis and there's certainly other opportunities to find that connection with people but skiing I think you know coming from a person who grew up doing it and it's just such a basis of my lifestyle and life it's just it puts you in situations where you can connect on a bit of a deeper level that you can't really necessarily put words into but you get this feeling of kind of a deeper I think connection with friends that you don't necessarily get that I don't necessarily get in other areas of my life let you have a day I feel like we're in an era of skiing that is progressing so fast that I want to be a part of that progression I just want to be one of those girls or athletes that people will remember hopefully and I think it's so important as well for the younger girls who can watch this progression and you know it's bit by bit it's making our women's free skiing it's making our sport so much more interesting and cooler to watch and hopefully we'll get more and more girls involved in this sport not yet adventure yeah what I love adventure is just the feeling of unknown you wake up you drive to somewhere you don't know and then you you just let yourself guide by what you see you just have to be more present and that makes things much more interesting yeah that's adventure for me it's not knowing everything before and and just discovering journey as it goes on ski adventures for me is really traveling to new places to bring my riding into the specific terrain and sharing it with with people with Simon with Jan it's like super fun because we're together exploring a new mountain range we have the local guys Manu and Matteo who are helping us out and it's like a real good team spirit and at the end of the day it's super fun the crazy thing about here is that in every couloir that you ski you see another couloir and another one and it's like you're not getting tired of it you're you want to explore further it's 9 15 in the morning in the Dolomites and warm up it's gonna be a straight line i feel like i've always just enjoyed like feeding in the air i don't know just going off a big jump and chilling in the air you can't really do it too many other ways if you think about it like maybe cliff jumping you can get that much air time but it's not like smooth and fun like skis and you hit a nice jump it's just like fall up and you're weightless for a sec you just come down and like hit the landing so perfect being weightless it is a good feeling if it's a good jump and you're in control it's one of the best feelings for you that's what i've been doing my whole life pretty much i don't know anything i like it the best i love you man you're a sick puppy party up there I'm sure of that Don't be romantic It's pure poetry Whatever it is It's all blue We like it more dry, dry Love you It's all blue We like it more dry, dry Love you Death descends on me I think of you And everything turns I'm in love I don't understand anything anymore I don't see people anymore And I don't do anything It's all blue We like it more dry, dry Love
