Video: July 2008 Archives

This week's webisode from the making of Tanner Hall's "The Massive," captures in three minutes all the months of hard work and planning that came together perfectly for three days of an epic hip session up at Timberline in June. The last shoot of the season brought together an all-star crew, guru feature builder Frank Wells, a helicopter for filming, and of course Tanner himself for what went down as an appropriately off the hook cap to what's going to be an off the hook ski movie come fall. Check out the exclusive video!

Up next we have Poor Boyz Productions latest joint, "Reasons." The heavy hitting crew featured in "Reasons" is made up partially by  some of Red Bull Skiing's heavy hitters: Tanner Hall, Simon Dumont, and Jon Olsson. Johnny Decesare, and the rest of PBP's talented film and production crew, is no stranger to putting out critically acclaimed flicks, so make sure to keep an eye out for this one come fall.

We're in the thick of it. Summer. While you're chillin' at the river or shredding trail on your mountain bike, the movie makers, who's jobs you're violently jealous of, are tucked away in their dark, dank dens of edit. Many won't see sunlight until the September premieres, and will only emerge at night to seek out "my precious," aka cans of Red Bull.

First up, we have Matchstick Productions "Claim." They say it's the greatest ski movie ever. We don't know, we haven't seen it, but when a movie features Red Bull skiers Simon Dumont, Jon Olsson, Sean Pettit, and Shane McConkey, well, let's just say it's a damn good start.

Our weekly episodes of the making of "The Massive" are entering epic terrain as we catch up with Tanner and crew up in Haines, Alaska. Led by the guide to end all heli-guides, Tom Burt, Tanner Hall and Dana Flahr piece together some killer runs in huge terrain. You'll see here that heli-skiing isn't all unicorns and magic fairy dust, you do have to put a bit of time and effort into the run of a lifetime.

This is the webisode you've been waiting for all season. "The Massive" is finally up in Alaska, and Tanner Hall is ready to drop in to some heli-accessed powdery goodness. So kick back and put up your flip-flopped dogs, cause there's nothing quite like some fresh footage in the midst of the July heat.

And how about all these "Behind the Scenes" webisodes? By now we've giving you over a half hour of footage and interviews with Tanner Hall and all those behind the making of "The Massive" this past winter. Better than just a two-minute trailer, eh? Click here to go back and see them all.
