Pick up a copy to fuel your Eastern stoke!
"Born From Ice" is this years' definitive Eastern ski movie. Produced by Burlington, VT based Meathead Films, the movie showcases progressive up-and-coming athletes shredding park, urban and backcountry all over the Eastern U.S. and Canada.
Highlights include:
• Action packed intro!
• Biggest cliff ever landed in the East
• 78 foot bridge rail, kinked concrete ledges, quad kink switch ups
• Chest deep powder at Mad River Glen
• Sick Super 8mm powder and jib footage
• Off axis aerial manuevers and tree hand plants at Loon Mtn.
• Powder day at Jay Peak
• Dancing Canadian retired folks!
• Riding the mid winter Ice Breaker ferry to remote island of Newfoundland
• Huge backcountry descents in the remote Blow-Me-Down Mountains of Newfoundland
• Tons of gnarly cliff hucks and tree skiing at Stowe
• Randy "The Hammer" Grosso sports his treasured pink googles and the "pullet" (pony tail _ mullet) while ripping epic bumps on Outer Limits at Killington
• Baxter (the dog) slays the powder
• Huge backcountry tow-in jump in backwoods Vermont. Witt and Simon throw down some uber classy 7's
All of this action is packed into just 43 minutes! But that's just the start of it... the "Born From Ice" DVD includes just over three hours of DVD bonus features. How did we get it all on to one disc? Super nanotechnology allowed us to jam close to 4 hours of crisp video onto the DVD to give "Born From Ice" nearly limitless viewing potential! It will keep you entertained and stoked on skiing all winter long.
The Bonus Features include:
"Born From Ice" Bonus Movie - At just shy of 40 minutes in length, this Bonus Movie includes tons of sick shots that didn't quite make the cut of the movie. Full length bonus sections from Stowe, Mad River Glen, Killington bumps, Killington jumps, the Tow-In, Jibs and Rails, Loon Mountain, Stratton, Sugarbush, and the antics of lil' John Strenio
Behind The Meat: Newfoundland - Raw footage from our epic trip to Newfoundland in late March. This 23 minute featurette tells the story behind the footage in the movie. See the full length version of Tony Rossi's insane dance moves at the Newfie night club!

Cinco de Mayo - A time to celebrate when 4,000 Mexican soldiers smashed the nasty French and traitor Mexican armies at Puebla, Mexico on May 5, 1862. Also a good time to have a Corona and jump into prickly bushes...
