The Art of flight

Hey folks, today I wanna talk about "THE ART OF FLIGHT" you´ve probs heard a lot about the movie, but it´s just too good! I have seen it like a thousand times and still love it. Travis Rice is, for sure, one if not the best snowboarder on earth. His style is unbelievably good, he is going down the hill like no other snowboarder on earth.
To the movie, let´s start with the music. The music is the best in the movie! mostly the naked and famous, well, it´s my favourite band, but also M83 and Deadmau5. I love Indie, Alternative and Electro, but that´s a matter of taste.
The camera is awesome! i don´t think there had ever been a camera technic used like this. Such a great quality and also a lot of slow motion.
The movie itself shows every part, apart from competitions, of snowboarding. Like the importance of the friendships between the snowboarders, it´s shown pretty good., and that they also do have a lot of fun. Like Scotty Lago is the jester of the group. It is so funny watching this guy! And also the relationship between the boarder and the mountains. That you always need to respect the mountains, otherwise you could get burried pretty easily. It is the love-hate relationship you see. Like you see Scotty Lago breaking his jaw for example, but no matter how bad they are injured, they don´t give up and want to improve.
To the riders: We have, of course, Travis Rice. He is the godfahter, i don´t think there is anything to add.
Scotty Lago: Another awesome rider! Good at comps as well, won the Toyota Big Air in Japan earlier this season. He is the funniest guy of the group, always good for a joke. He has as well an awesome style. Like the best backside rodeo ever.
John Jackson: also known as Marley or Rasta. His hair is soo funny.
Nicolas Müller: the swiss legend. WOW. i like this guy soo muuuuuuch!!!!!
Pat Moore, Mark Landvik, Jeremy Jones, Kylce Clancy, The Mitrani boys and many many moore. As you can see, this are some heavy as names! They really have brought snowboarding to the next level. I think every snowboarder out door adores at least one of them. It is incredible how good they are. Riding down back country slopes like they´d be nothing. The tricks you see in the movie, marvellous.
Locations: Alaska, Jackson Hole, Chile, Canada
The only thing i didn´t like about the movie is, that ther is sometimes too much footage of the landscape and stuff.
In my opinion, it is the best movie i have ever seen and it is worth every frickin cent.
