So we were fortunate enough to get some tickets to Jeremy Jones' latest film 'Deeper' premiere last night. And just when I thought the standard was set by the guys over at Brain Farm Cinema with 'That's It, That's All' 2 years ago, along came Jeremy Jones and TGR. In a world where most snowboard films are pretty much just glorified music videos with powder shots and kickers, Mr. Jones went all out to make a film not just about the ride, but the ascent to get there. Using minimal helis and no sleds, Jones and his crew hike 80 degree faces and camp out on some of the gnarliest mountains ever ridden. They hike every line they take which makes them that much sweeter. It was not just a snowboard film, but a mountaineering film too; exploring mountain ranges untouched by humankind. Epic is the word of the day.
Travis Rice makes an appearance and quite possibly could have stolen the show. Ryland Bell is the future of big mountain snowboarding. Jeremy is as on point as ever. Please do yourself a favor and check it out. You won't look at snowboarding the same afterwards. Much respect & props to Jeremy and the foks at TGR. Well played. Consider the bar raised.
