Filmtrailer 2023/24 | The incomplete overview

Curtain up, let the show begin!

by Sebastian Müller 11/16/2023
We have put together 25 trailers of films about freeriding for you and have also skilfully commented on most of them! Just take a look! The anticipation is building, the stoke is real and the order is in favour of underdogs.

Good Old Friend

Friendships can be complicated, especially when they go on for many years and expectations are sometimes disappointed. So why hold on to it? Nevertheless, Ferdinand Möhwald, Victor Heim, Tobias Wörner and Jonas Huser are happy every year when an old friend comes back to visit...

We mean: here's to guitars, winter and friendship!

Moonlines

The video narrative of an original trip mixing two extreme sports in the wild mountain range of Queyras, France: freeskiing and highline. Four female skiers and guides (Silvia Moser, Chloé Roux-Mollard, Aurelia Lanoe, and Coline Ballet-Baz), all sharing the same passion for these two sports, decide to unite them during a few days spent in a remote cabin in the mountains.

We want to: Say yes! That's a creative combination! This is what the future looks like! Favourite film!

Darkhorse

In today's era of outdoor adventure sports where social media followers, engagement, and 'likes' have shaped the industry, an important question remains unanswered: If a snowboarder rides a steep, exposed line in the Whistler backcountry and no one sees it or hears it, did it really happen? Joe Lax would put this age-old philosophical debate to rest- "Who cares"?

A 44-year-old Pemberton local, Lax has created a life defined by snowboarding, family, and wildfire. Despite his accolades in the mountains, leaving his mark on the iconic lines of British Columbia that have defined an industry, you've likely never heard of him. And he's happy to keep it that way.

We think: Sounds exciting!

F.O.M.O.

Who hasn't experienced the "fear of missing out"? A phenomenon that can cause serious stress, especially in Innsbruck with its diverse sporting opportunities and motivated people. Between the psychological background of F.O.M.O., explained by psychologist and professor Verena Dresen, there will be the finest action from the "Sonnenburg Collective" (skiing and snowboarding).

We think: Long overdue treatment of a topic of our community and certainly good to look at!

Bjørnebo - Svalbard

We think: Cool! This looks like a very successful combination of challenging freeriding, artistic filming and adventurous ambience!

LEXICON

We feel: JaPow in its most primal form, Yeah Duuuude!

Space Craft

We like this: Take off and spin it!

Unlikely Duo

We notice: Ski mountaineer meets freerider.

The Pass

Rogers Pass represents one of the most complicated avalanche control programmes in the world. Ski touring through its storied terrain is only possible thanks to the visionary mountain guide who architected the ski system years ago, and the woman she mentored who's now at the haed of that avalanche programme. The stakes are higher than most skiers could ever imagine.

We think: Avalanche protection is a complex matter!

O-Ton: "Nature still has a tendency to surprise us!"

Ad

AETHER 5

We think: Snowboard aesthetics at their very best.

Arctic Lines

O-Ton: Minimise close calls without losing the feeling of progression!

FULL CIRCLE

Faced with a traumatic injury that renders you permanently disabled, how would you reinvent yourself? In 2014, Trevor Kennison's life was forever altered by a broken back - for worse and for better, in equal measures. Full Circle is both an unblinking examination of the challenges of life after spinal cord injury... and a celebration of the opportunity for growth that such a tragedy can present.

We mean: Trevor Kinnison, Berry Corbet and so much more.

The FIFTY - Season 5

O-Ton: We're not done, we're just starting!

We think: Cody, thanks, we're ready to go!

prÆy

Shot exclusively in the backcountry of British Columbia, this film portrays an artistic expression of modern snowboarding on natural terrain with a cast of some of today's top riders.

SOMOS

Follows two snowboard mountaineers on a month long expedition as they travel through the shadows of the mountains, deep in the Alaskan backcountry. A journey that narrates the experience of being human in these raw and isolated environments.

The Art of Recreation - A visual & riding experience

This unexpected short movie is a visual manifesto of their first winter with the new Simply. tools. This movie came together organically as they were surrounded by talented filmmakers and photographers whom they can proudly call friends.

RAW SERIES / Sebi Mall

In a winter with little snow, Sebi shows that he doesn't need much snow for skiing. Whether in the park, on the piste or in the powder, he makes the most of the opportunities that present themselves. The film is a tribute to skiing and the winter beauty of the mountains, a visual experience for all lovers of skiing and snow.

The Hagen's

We mean: Freeride Pro and family!

O-Ton: One can change in life!

Deciding to have kids is a big decision. It's probably one of the most daunting decisions many of us will face in our lifetimes. It's perhaps even more magnified for those who already have life-fulfilling passions that fuel their sense of self and shape their goals. This is a documentary that explores the choice of having kids and the impact they can have on your time, values, and sense of self.

InBetween

Between their first contest successes, everyday life, family and the urge to push their own limits, we accompany some of the best young Austrian freeriders on skis and snowboards through the winter. A reflection on effort versus pleasure, family support and how to deal with the pressure to perform. Olivia Riedl as well as Stefanie and Christiane Freimann let us dive deep into their world between backflips and spectacular lines.

CONTINUUM

We report: High-end up-cycling for the mountains!

Svaneti - The hidden Paradise

In Georgia, Till Ewers, Dino Flatz and Lara Paul fulfil their long-cherished dream of exploring mountains and culture far away from the Alps. They spared no effort and used every possible means of transport to do so.

Weisswurst Express

Bernhard Braun is stranded as a Bavarian in Japan without white sausages and as a Bavarian in Austria without white sausage culture. A film between two worlds (Pillows and Big Lines) with surprising twists in the storytelling and lots of humour, carried by a rousing soundtrack. As well as being very Bavarian, Berni and buddy Joshua Braun are also great skiers in a wide variety of terrain.

SEQUENCER

We predict: A big show, with Travis Rice.

FWT Teaser

We think: Go East! The FWT is coming to Georgia in 2024!

Draconians

Favret Sam joined Nikolai Schirmer at his home in the far north in Norway, to discover the secrets of narrow couloirs descended at full throttle, slopes that plunge straight down to the sea and days that push back the nights.
