The Joy of Surfing in Ice-cold Water

"Anything that is worth pursuing is going to require us to suffer."

Adventure photographer Chris Burkard gave a pretty memorable talk about his obsession with the coldest, most isolated beaches in the world.

"Anything that is worth pursuing is going to require us to suffer, just a little bit," says surf photographer Chris Burkard, as he explains his obsession with the coldest, choppiest, most isolated beaches on earth. With jawdropping photos and stories of places few humans have ever seen - much less surfed - he draws us into his "personal crusade against the mundane."

Afterglow - A Ski Film

Sweetgrass Productions are known to impress with visually stunning videos but this is on a whole different level. Plus they were nice enough to let me use their footage for "We Live Unbound", love these guys! 

Watch the full 12 minute film: https://vimeo.com/108679594 Presented by Philips TV and Atomic Skis Featuring: Pep Fujas, Eric Hjorleifson, Daron Rahlves, and Chris Benchetler From the depth of the creative visuals to the groundbreaking, never-been-done-before scale of the shoot, Afterglow is being hailed as one of the most cinematically profound ski movies ever made. Deep pillows and Alaskan spines, all filmed at night, with massive lights, custom made LED suits, and a national governments worth of logistics, planning, and civil engineering. Filmed as a partnership between Sweetgrass Productions, Philips TV, and the Swedish Agency Ahlstrand & Wållgren, it's two parts creativity, one part branded content, and a pinch of masochism for good measure. Overall, it's an incredibly unique partnership between our vision of skiing and the color and light technology behind the Philips Ambilight TV. Supported by: Atomic, Freefly Systems (MOVI), NiteRider, Golden Alpine Holidays, Alyeska Resort & Talvista Lodge. Shot on location at: Golden Alpine Holidays Sentry Lodge, Alyeska Resort, and the Alaskan Wilderness Directed by Nick Waggoner & Mike Brown Executive Producer Nick Waggoner Produced by Zac Ramras, Mike Brown, and Max Santeusanio Edited by Mike Brown First AC Max Santeusanio Aerial Cinematography by Nick Wolcott and Zac Ramras Guides Cam McClellan and Ken Bibby Gaffer Mark Stuen Key Grip Kyle Metzger Best Boy Grip Shane Treat Cook AJ Frye BTS Unit Jason Mannings Agency Ahlstrand & Wållgren Account Director Ulf Ahlstrand Creative Director Joakim Wållgren Account Manager Helena Bengtsson Associate Creative Director Cristopher Gedda Westrell Art Director Johan Schonfeldt Agency Producer Mark Baughen, Colony
