The Art of Flight - Making a Snowboard Film is Easy!

01:42PM Tue, 6th September 2011

Here’s yet more insane footage of Travis Rice and friends the forthcoming super-snowboard-flick the Art of Flight – which, if the trailers are anything to go by are go by, is going to be so epic it’ll be like the final Harry Potter film dry-humping the third part of the Lord of the Rings. But while we have no doubt that the final product will re-define the concept of awesomeness, we also have no doubt that it took a hell of a lot of time, frustration, and effort (not to mention money!) to make.

We heard one story from a production insider that had the whole crew flying down to Chile for two weeks, helicopters booked and everything set to go, only to find that there was no snow! This latest teaser shows some of those frustrations, and some of the gnarly slams and pitfalls the crew met along the way. We’re not 100% sure, but we think they might be being sarcastic with that title…

Tristan first stepped on a snowboard at the age of 12, and (despite being a bit rubbish) has made a point of riding as often as possible since. He joined Whitelines in 2009, and writes, shoots, films and edits for both the magazine and the website. Having headed up the team in charge of the Whitelines Buyers' Guide for the past four seasons knows more about the geeky side of snowboard kit than anyone should ever have to know.
