You can tell that just from hearing charles reid in that interview. If you live and ride in BC, and you’re at the highest level your shit is no joke. You can rip a sled. You can throw double corks off backcountry booter, You know how to ride in avalanche conditions. You’re a boss in the backcountry. I know this, you know this, this is a known fact.   The crazy thing to me is seeing Joy, and more specifically Overjoy which really laid out the backstory to what the movie Joy is and how these guys who are at the top of the game in competitive snowboarding were able to take it to the backcountry. Obviously they had mentors in certain spots. Iguchi and Carter in Jackson, Danny Davis in Tahoe. What we are witnessing here is a passing of the torch if you ask me. It would be amazing to see the crew from Who Cares link up with the Riders from Joy and see what kind of crazy shit would come out of that.   Sunokero Korua pow movie Japan - snorkel https://vimeo.com/367935705   Every shot is framed so well that you could pause it at any moment and there you would have a photo you could mount on the wall of your chalet. If there’s one thing we cant count on year after year is footage coning out of Japan. The Korua crew was able to showcase the vibe and feel of the ride in Japan. Utilizing camera angles that highlight the depth of the snow and the placement of the trees as much as characters as the snowboarders themselves.       Overjoyed The making of the movie Joy. Aired on the World of X-Games on ABC.   Future Mystic Brandon Cocard and Mike Rav's movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZ6q_j6Wgfs   Clip of the Week   Last week   Powder in Alaska  1260 double nose Seb Koninjenberg Vlad Khadarin with a revert   Click on the paper airplane to share your favorite Clip of the Week to your Story #scrollawards Scroll Awards for 10/28/19    Eero Ettala Early Grab FS3 https://www.instagram.com/p/B4CxOw4HXqD/   Fabian Fraidl Ghost Slide https://www.instagram.com/p/B4IFkVEAAwd/   Mans Hedberg Disaster Revert https://www.instagram.com/p/B4KWiISFR7v/   Kalle Jarviehto Murphy Flip https://www.instagram.com/p/B4IFbgBgmmK/   Kevin Backstrom Slash Crash https://www.instagram.com/p/B4KUyzrn9dw   Kevin Backstrom Butter Landing https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Hp5EQnMdR   Sebbe DeBuck Double shifty FS 3 w/ grab https://www.instagram.com/p/B4AL_8lCFCR/   Bode Merrill  Shuv it to flip  https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Kt2QGpOZm/ CONCLUSION/GOODBYES/HOUSEKEEPING   Correction: Helgasons did not win a Norwegian snowboard award because they are not norwegian.
