arcteryx ALL I CAN

http://arcteryx.com/?EN

Sherpas Cinema are taking a completely different approach to ski and environmental documentary filmmaking. By taking an honest look at the real mountain individual in the context of their environment, "All.I.Can" aims to find a balance between our passions for the outdoors and an inspiration for green and long-term thinking.

Fire on the Mountain


We want to send out thoughts to all the Boulder folks displaced by the fire. I took this shot the evening of it's inception from Kate's condo in north Boulder. that is the sun almost completely eclipsed by the smoke. She may be evacuated tonight. This is the second time in less then 2 years she and Harper have had to leave their home because of fire danger. A graceful thought.......for all involved.

Life Cycle....

Solid HD video teaser about a bike. Check it out. This movie will be worth the celluloid. Do they use celluloid any more?? You get the picture. (no one says picture anymore either, or preview. When did the previews become the trailers?

History in the making

Tavi Tru-Trak Anyflex ($100 in 1957) has adjustable wire running through both sides of ski. By turning screw at end of wire, racer can adjust stiffness to suit snow conditions. Easily replaced one-piece edges fasten by screws set in from top. Ironically this is what Shane McConkey did with the first Volant Spachela design. He applied the 1957 technology to the outside of the ski, made it so tight that the ski went into reverse camber..History is important.
