Videos of the week #3 2023/24 | VdW with rye muesli

From the moon landing through the Monstercouloir to the pub

by Sebastian Müller 12/14/2023
The well-known YouTube greats - Wester, Autti, Schirmer, Wiedemann... - are slowly taking over the main part of the VdW again, but a few independent films still appear, of course. We round off the menu with a culinary and cultural trip to the mountaineering village of Villergraten and the Low Pressure podcast.

Jacob Wester - Walk The Walk

Ski-touring, the act of ascending a mountain with the aim to ski down, has been around for as long as skiing itself. Some see it as a workout, some as a way of enjoying a better lunch view. Others have discovered the potential to find untouched snow far from the lift lines, the noise pollution of helicopters and snowmobiles, and the rat race for powder snow.

Antti Autti - Hidden Dream Zone | Arctic Lines

Exploring expands your horizons and finding new locations is one of the most important aspects of freeriding. During the peak season, Antti & Ile Eronen go on a seek-and-find mission to ride at a special zone called ¨Sunny car centre¨ filled with different big mountain lines.

Space Craft

The dream of man. The long, impossible dream to reach out to the moon. Fly along with Sam Kuch as he explores the parallels between skiing and space travel. A mastery of weightlessness and gravity, and an ode to the ultimate explorers of our time. 10 seconds and counting. Featuring: Sam Kuch, Cole Richardson

Hillside Project Series

An intergenerational exploration of Japan in search of rhythm, flow, and incredibly deep snow. Each year Wolle Nyvelt and a selected crew of snowboarders set out to explore new terrain and test different shapes within the Hillside Project Series. After being closed to travel for the last couple of years, Japan was the obvious choice. Needless to say, the crew composed of Wolle, Takaharu Nakai, Louif Paradis and Luke Lund scored. Witch Wolle Nyvelt,Takaharu Nakai, Louif Paradis and Luke Lund.

Lost In Thought

A film from Lucas Wachs and friends. Whether by sled or by foot, below treeline or in the alpine - good camaraderie and top notch skiing.

Ski tour: Wank 1100hm (07.12.2023)

The Wank is a classic ski tour near Garmisch Partenkirchen. We ascended via the tracked southern ascent. This ascent is steep in places and therefore strenuous. The ascent via the Esterbergalm would be more comfortable, but also longer. The descent is via the former ski piste. However, nobody would use this as a ski piste today. Up and down, you reach the beautiful north-facing slope, followed by a pull trail to the Esterbergalm and a short counter-climb to reach the forest road towards Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The former piste runs partly to the right or left of this road. We had good conditions today, the road was cleared but still had a good layer of snow.

#245 Katie Burrell and Weak Layers | Low Pressure Podcast

Katie Burrell returns in the lead up to "Weak Layers" her first feature length, Hollywood Film!

Over the last 6 years, Katie has been consistently levelling up with her filmmaking and she credits that to her ability to invest in herself. Set for a theatrical release on Jan 5, 2024 Weak Layers is a refreshed take on the ski comedy genre, with a far more realistic take on ski town life, from Katie's point of view that we've come to love.

Katie explains the learning process in making this film was like, "drinking from the firehose". Here she shares behind the scenes stories about the writing process, learning how to be a director on a Hollywood production, relying on her team for support and lots more.
