Filefjell Day 1

After a super late arrival (4AM) and somewhat of an early wake-up call (10AM), Andro and I threw our gear on and headed up the mountain to meet the crew. The posse was already busy shaping up what will be a double-sided hip jump (meaning you have the option to session backside or frontside).

The main man behind the build is Lars, whose resume runs deep with multiple years experience building everything that was ever filmed or shot at Hemsedal Resort.

For a change of scenery we’re now utilizing the slopes of Filefjell Ski Resort about an hours drive from Hemse. The resort is closed for the season, but we’ve been granted ten days to build, shape, session and shoot this feature.

We got through quite a bit of the build today, and the weather forecast is promising, so we could be at it as early as tomorrow. Stay tuned….Blotto
