IF3: The Massive in Montreal
Basically there's nothing like IF3. It's an event that draws the biggest names in the ski industry, and celebrates the sport of skiing and those that chronicle it in moving images. Whether it be a big budget blockbuster like The Massive or a handfull of amateur films, the stoke around the whole event is universal. Sure everybody worked on different projects last year, and there are awards to be had, but it's amazing to see the top pros in the sport like Tanner Hall and Sammy Carlson at every screening, even the early ones after being out real late, and discussing which AM film they liked best while dishing out genuine praise. Everyone who's anyone in the ski industry is in Montreal, and last night the party of the season was kicked off by The Massive screening at the impressive Imperial Theatre. Tanner Hall was supported by The Massive skiers Sean Pettit, Callum Pettit, Frank Raymond, Sammy Carlson, and Dana Flahr. The crowd was loving the movie: shouting and hooting at the appropriate parts.
Post The Massive, we rushed over to Cabaret Juste Poir Rire so Tanner could do a television interview and meet reggae artist Mikey Dangerous who would perform at The Massive Reggae Party. Soon, the crowd from the Theatre made their way through the bright lights and hustle of a friday night in downtown Montreal. The Red Bull was flowing and the party quickly went from good to epic as Mikey Dangerous took the stage. Tanner Hall and the Petttits got up on stage and danced at various points in the show, and it was so rowdy at one point some dude got surfed across the room. The party raged well into the early AM hours until the club kicked everyone out. We all stumbled across town to get some much needed sleep to get up and do it all again tomorrow.
