The London ski show has kicked off and is wetting snow appetites of all those who visit. The start of ski show and ski movie release season certainly helps turn everyone’s thoughts towards the onset of winter. We look for signs, no matter how spurious, that may indicate how good or bad the snowy season is going to be. In the UK we are having the warmest October on record. Is that a sign that temperatures are going to suddenly dip and we are going to be in the icy grip of a mega winter? I for one have everything crossed and hope the Scottish mountains get puked on with a snowy fury never seen before!
After almost two years of anticipation, the official teaser for Lynsey Dyer and Unicorn Picnic’s all-female film Pretty Faces has been unveiled. Rockstars Dyer, Elyse Saugstad, Rachael Burks, Maude Raymond, Ingrid Backstrom, Caroline Gleich and countless others put on a show in this teaser

Teton Gravity Research. Looks like this year’s film, Almost Ablaze will be packed with some really gnarly lines, sick nighttime shoots, and a crazy segment from historic Sarajevo. The kicker? Every skier is mic’d up throughout the whole dang movie. Check out the badass trailer, now, and get excited for what’s to come this fall.
Warren Miller Entertainment’s 2014 feature film, No Turning Back reflects upon 65 years of snow sports filmmaking.
