A bit late but hey. The guys from “Absinthe Films” who are behind movies as Pop, Saturation and Vivid has released “Futureproof” this year. A really cool snowboard movie with big mountain riding and big kickers. Gigi rüf does a sick crash in the beginning, can’t even estimate how far he flies. This is manly a freeriding movie but they’ll managed to sneak some rails into it. Not that many though. So if you like powder, big mountains, backcountry and going big, this movie will suit you.

I wrote previously about Arborsport that makes skateboards and snowboards with a classic surflook. Now the time has come to skis with a old classic luxurious look. Zweydingers is a german company that dates back to the 19th century. They make really nice looking skis with visible wooden core of solid ash and reinforced with fibreglass. You can even get them personally decorated. Swedish retailer is Cross Sportswear in stockholm but you can buy them from their own webshop. They costs around €600 if you don’t want any extra.
