What a wonderful week it's been. There's still only homeopathic snow, of course, but there's autumn gold wherever you look. And video gold too. This week, the Videos of the Week are quantitatively understaffed. Instead, there's what I think is the best freeride film of the year and, to round things off, a bit of art on a bike. Cheers.
Eclipse - Freeski TV S9 E03
What a masterpiece! Who would think of flying way too far north, into the Arctic winter cold, to produce images for a solar eclipse? Quite a risky undertaking. Congratulations to Mr. Bonello, Mr. Douglas and of course to the photographer Reuben Krabbe! I think, even if ultra-kitschy, this will be the first ski picture I will buy and print. Origin of the Eclipse images here.

Kaleidoscope
After the first studio attempt with Danny Macaskill, the media professionals from the Austrian sugar powder manufacturer go one better. Kaleidoscope shows Kris Kyle jumping and doing tricks in the RB studio. Dreamy perspectives and optical illusions and top cycling action. Simply incredibly well realized.
