The crew at TNF is really killing it support videos like these. Integrating the cell phone clips and other natural moments is absolutely killer. Rather than just creating story-boarded scenes from the get go, the crew is adding emotion and connection to real moments that we can then appreciate. Love'em. This video and Pulp are awesome. Thanks for the inspiration!
Very good short-movie !! The avalanche scene was horrifying but the transition scene between the three snowboarders and the credits was also very cool !!!
I don't know what to say... You guys are awesome!!! Great crews!! But damn man... Not gonna lie, all I could think about in the end was Craig man... I could put this a hundred ways but I'm not gonna. Live, love, learn... Yeah
Amazing skills from Leanne, Jake and Victor. Not sure if I like the style of the video though, maybe I've got to watch it a few times more to really get in tune with it. Anyway, thumbs up.
Men and Mountain 100% agree. This video felt boring to me and i was struggling to even follow along. The only word that comes to mind to describe this video is.. pointless
Просто нереально и шикарно! Ребята вы большие молодцы! Так снять круто ! И конечно же райдеры огонь ! Обожаю фрирайд ) ! Но нам приходится два часа подниматься и 5 мин спускаться, ради этих волшебных ощущений ) Спасибо за видео !
@@darrenlamb5640 There’s actually a lot. Every month of August, there’s a celebration in schools we call it Buwan ng Wika (Language Month) where all of the traditional activities from singing to dancing and preparing foods are still being practiced.
@@kaiserbacote8984 that's what countries should do... keep alive their cultures. Here in England they are trying to destroy all traditional culture in the name of multiculturalism... that's all other cultures except our own which doesnt seem good enough anymore.
@@darrenlamb5640 that’s a bit sad. At least once in a year the traditions (for each state/province) should be kept alive and practiced (being deeply rooted).
... I'm honestly Stunned by this Sport! (By any chance,us this near "Grey Rocks"? My Father used to Ski competitively there). He's in Spirit form now, I'd really love to know+hear more about it from him or anyone who extreme skis for enjoyment. If it wasn't extremely difficult+ adrenaline filled-it wasn't worth his free time. ⭐He was an amazing man. He was French-Canadian.) This video is Astounding! So Inspiring! Thank-you for Sharing it!🌎
This video has Avalanche airbags screaming all over it. From the beginning it looks like you are trying to start one. Sickos! But it's awesome and beautiful.
Seems to be called "What Sleep" by Chris Wong and Chuck Bucket. Wong is a keyboardist/bassist and Bucket is a drummer. But that's all the info I can find on it anywhere, and I couldn't find any places where it's available online either. Such a bummer, I would love to have this tune in my library.
What were they doing running helo lines on such a sketchy mountainside...? Anybody do any pit work before they started dropping lines? Anybody who's ever worked Patrol, MSR or similar is probably a little angry (myself included) after watching this one. Seems like an excellent opportunity to do some valuable teaching -- but instead it's "we're lucky" and a beat...
Why was the snow not tested at the top of the lines that avalanched? Avalanche risk would have been avoided. Its not like these boarders dont know what they are doing. Very scary stuff and they should know better. Its a very stupid risk!
They have professional guides on most shoots especially for bigger productions like this. Guide/pro assessment doesn't guarantee anything though, it's still just risk assessment.
@@hobmarg bruh the girl causes several avalanches prior to the big one...any better guarantee that there isn't safe enough conditions to continue boarding?
Might be a dumb question, but do they have any indicators of those slopes being liable for avalanche? Seems like there would be no way to tell. Great video regardless.
@@lifeofluke And many many many other factors.You dig a pit in an area unaffected by the wind and it might be completely different 3000ft up. I don't see them digging pits on skinny ridges or stupid steep faces.
Amazing photography, animation, and editing. However, I would've preferred it without the vertical images/stories. Kinda unpro in comparison with the rest of the drones images or 4K recording. The subscribe bottom was smashed thou
loling at you all who think you can make better decisions than this crew. You're in the comments section for a reason, stay in your lane. if you've ever taken an Aiare 1 course the book literally opens with two facts: 1. Avalanche risk is always present 2. Don't assume just because you didn't get in an avalanche that you made all the right decisions and likewise don't assume you made the wrong decisions because you did set one off. That pigeon holes the learning process into false dichotomy. and if you haven't taken an Aiare course, again, stay in your lane
a lot of comments saying things like "amazing skills", well that doesn't out weigh the stupidity of deciding to continue making runs in bad conditions, even though there were plenty of warning signs of danger throughout this video.
Seriously? Is a near fatal avalanche something that should be made out as "badass" and animated as if its just some cool stunt? Those were obviously poor decisions and instead of making that mistake out to be some gnarly close-call, they shouldve maybe gone into why that happened and actually educate the viewers on the reality of backcountry riding! Boooo north face
Totally agree, but the animations make it clear what you should be doing in that situation. Keep eyes on, you HAVE to keep trying to see that person. At the same time you're thinking about getting your shovel and probe out.. A viewer knowing nothing about avalanche rescue might not understand what the animations are trying to remind you of, but if you do, then you should recognise them as exactly what you should be doing. I do agree that they're a touch flippant, I guess it was a fine line to tread, but it got me thinking about what I should be doing if it was me in that situation, so I guess that's good. This is one of the "best" (best/scariest/worst?) pieces of in-avalanche footage that I've seen. It genuinely looked like he was underwater, and you do hear advice to make swimming-like movements if you get caught in an avalanche. I was genuinely scared to know what was going to happen (although given that they included it in the edit, it obviously wasn't going to be fatal), and strongly reminded me that we all need to be careful out there and try to make wise decisions.
What is with the lack of helmets? You’ll wear the most expensive goggles available to protect your eyes, but your brain doesn’t matter? These guys are the people young riders look up to. Not cool.
Bobbi Metcalfe Freeriders don’t often wear helmets...Because they’re riding deep pow and stuf... If there is a situation where they hit their head, its pretty much over with or without one, but I agree with you, bad example...
I’m disgusted at the glorification of triggering several avalanches and just about surviving them. What sort of example is this to set North Face?? There will be people watching this assuming they could probably just outrun an avalanche or simply swim to the top of it. Unbelievable. Very disappointing.
Nicola Slater How is it glorification? When they are not only using horrifying music but also cinematography. If anyone thinks avalanches are cool because of this video not only do you need a reality check but so do the people that think that. Such a stupid way of looking at this video from your point of view. Its cinematography, grow up.
It would have been a thumbs up but the Avalanche section with Victor was terrible. Theses situations in the mountains are not to be laughed at... people die. What’s with all the stupid animations??? SAD :(

fucking truth!
Hell yeah!
yea, if they only would know NOT to film vertically!
Collin nj
The cinematography in this is crazy. Next level stuff.
Appreciate it! 👌
Wow amazing Video! Leanne riding away from that Avalanche looked so gnarly! Glad noone got hurt.
Very good short-movie !! The avalanche scene was horrifying but the transition scene between the three snowboarders and the credits was also very cool !!!
Whenever The North Face upload a video it brings a smile to my face and a rush of adrenaline in my body
why? they're all the same...
seen one seem them all
I seen these big mountain videos, but this, this is just new level of spectacular.
Epic! They where a couple big avalanches, stay safe out there. Good to see some boarding from The North Face.
Finally, Sherpas Cinema is back in the pow' with some snowboards! Welcome back.
The avalanche part had me shook, great cinematography!
Breathtaking photography and skills - more please!
ah man usually i like watching these vids high but man i was too high for this lol. glad everyone was ok.
glad I'm the right amount of high, then. come back next time, it's worth it.
that avalance animations reminded me on SSX On Tour. This game was epic!
The best snowboarding video I've seen in a while.
I don't understand why Victor made the decision to drop in right after he saw Leanne set off a slide. The dangers were very obvious.
Different day. But yeah made a mistake …
The credits reel has the best stuff!
I don't know what to say... You guys are awesome!!! Great crews!! But damn man... Not gonna lie, all I could think about in the end was Craig man... I could put this a hundred ways but I'm not gonna. Live, love, learn... Yeah
Holy shit that avalanche moment at 6:13. That hit like some sort of trip. Speechless, sick work
these are my favorite commercials.
Amazing skills from Leanne, Jake and Victor. Not sure if I like the style of the video though, maybe I've got to watch it a few times more to really get in tune with it. Anyway, thumbs up.
Men and Mountain 100% agree. This video felt boring to me and i was struggling to even follow along. The only word that comes to mind to describe this video is.. pointless
I agree, but it hits different watching it in a cinema, watching it there was amazing and does not compare to on the phone
Просто нереально и шикарно! Ребята вы большие молодцы! Так снять круто ! И конечно же райдеры огонь ! Обожаю фрирайд ) ! Но нам приходится два часа подниматься и 5 мин спускаться, ради этих волшебных ощущений ) Спасибо за видео !
Great video! Loved it! Living on the edge!
That’s the craziest thing I’ve ever seen.
Wow! Aside from being amazed of this sport, the creator of this video used a Filipino song 😍 🇵🇭
Sounds really 60s style. Never heard them before. Didn't know there was much of a music scene in the Philippines. We live and learn.

lol when jake is tryna make the sure camera is good aha
as a former oil field worker i want to take the opportunity to thank north face for being such a staunch supporter of the oil industry.
Whoa the avalanche escape was a total trouser-filler and I'm just sitting here watching. What a great piece, good job TNF!
northface always has great music
British Columbia is the most beautiful area on planet Earth
Those 3 are totally crazy
this film was nuts!
This video has Avalanche airbags screaming all over it. From the beginning it looks like you are trying to start one. Sickos!
But it's awesome and beautiful.
TNF knows how to market their products. Human + fun + bruh moments
The North Face should glorify the mountain skills to avoid being traped in an avalanche, not the other way around... Weird message
The message I got was that it can be all fun and games until shit gets real, and when it gets real it gets life threatening in a blink
Down playing the Avalanche. Still Bad Ass Footage. God bless them all.
incredible
Always great videos 🤙🏻
Wow! Awesome!
What’s that sweet jam song in most of the video? I don’t think it’s mentioned in the credits
OhSees, Enrique el Cobrador
Yea Thee Oh Sees is a fucking amazing band and you should listen to there most recent 5 albums , absolutely killing it along with gizzard
That band is pure dynamite
Savage work👌
Epic video, but why no helmets?
Definitely death defying jumping off the cliffs and not to mention triggering Avalanche(s)!
A Filipino song at 0:51!? Batangueña by Mabuhay Singers!
Gulat ako dun ah.
I thought so kuratan ko ha ha
Incredible!!
@The North Face
cant find a retro nuptse urban navy colour in europe dudeees, i need it! D:
good stuff sherpa, missed ya
What is the music that starts playing at 5:40?
Seems to be called "What Sleep" by Chris Wong and Chuck Bucket. Wong is a keyboardist/bassist and Bucket is a drummer. But that's all the info I can find on it anywhere, and I couldn't find any places where it's available online either. Such a bummer, I would love to have this tune in my library.
What the song is at 6:18?
Steph Copeland - What Sleep (I can't find it for download/stream anywhere 😢)
this is amazing
Cracking video
Che hermano, fue dificil hacer eso?

Sooo.. they tried to start an avalanche, then acted like they were shocked when it happened. Got it!
Sick!!! 🏂🤩🥳
Why was the snow not tested at the top of the lines that avalanched? Avalanche risk would have been avoided. Its not like these boarders dont know what they are doing. Very scary stuff and they should know better. Its a very stupid risk!
Maybe it was tested. Snow pack test is not a guarantee. Avalanches happen to everyone.
They have professional guides on most shoots especially for bigger productions like this. Guide/pro assessment doesn't guarantee anything though, it's still just risk assessment.
@@hobmarg bruh the girl causes several avalanches prior to the big one...any better guarantee that there isn't safe enough conditions to continue boarding?
Might be a dumb question, but do they have any indicators of those slopes being liable for avalanche? Seems like there would be no way to tell. Great video regardless.
There are ways to tell a slope's stability by digging a snow pit and examining the snowpack layers
@@lifeofluke And many many many other factors.You dig a pit in an area unaffected by the wind and it might be completely different 3000ft up. I don't see them digging pits on skinny ridges or stupid steep faces.
Lots but it's tricky. Flutuactions in weather, degree of slope and snow pack assessment are some of the indicators.
That was a massive break.
AMAZING
It’s crazy! 🤩🤘🏻
how fast are these riders at Vmax?
what band/song?
wicked ! play list possible? njoylife
MAMMA MIA!
Yes
That butter tho
Apparently the "path of progression" is paved with poor decision making
Epic 💜
Pow slashes and Organ solos. Count me in
dope!
Which song Is it
th-cam.com/video/w4RRiwcImqE/w-d-xo.html
I want that beanie and the googles, avalanche proof.
heavy!
WOW
YES
Amazing photography, animation, and editing. However, I would've preferred it without the vertical images/stories. Kinda unpro in comparison with the rest of the drones images or 4K recording. The subscribe bottom was smashed thou
I was told to comment 😍
Ho deciso di non più guardare questi video che purtroppo promuovono la morte.
sick!
Wow!
Sherpas killin again!! Fuck yeah!!!

wahhh keren nih kontennya disalju

YOU ARE SO GREAT MAN.
I KNOW I WILL DO SNOW BOARDING IN HEAVEN
BECAUSE I AM TO OLD NOW . 55!
WOW

That move at 3:03...
Victor De le Rue, the new Tavis Rice ???
Lol
wildest *
Damn that was a nasty wipeout, thankfully their ok.
And as usual, the helmet isn’t class enough to find it place on their lill heads... those are our heros, we ain’t gonna cry.
I wanna be victor de le rue when i grow up....I'm almost 30
but wtf is with the glorification of these avalanches?? not cool.
Dave Manago dame as wipe outs on big waves. The power of nature
Reminders that we are all mortal

3:02 wanna be able to butter like this)
