WIDE OPEN TOUR
Wide Open Tour is comprised of dedicated individuals in the snowboard world with the drive and means to access some of the best snow zones on the planet. We capture and document our travels, broadcasting them for the world to see. We’re all having a damn good time.
Our crew is headed up by Kyle Grant and Aaron Blatt – a couple of kids coming off of the east coast who live for snowboarding. Kyle will be on the grind with production and management of life on the road; Blatt will handle the photographic side of things, along with media management. Stay posted, we’ve got big plans.
EPISODE 1 - COLORADO
In our first weeks of filming, we encountered a heck of a lot of snow up in Summit County. While the snow was deep, it was also dangerous – slides at 25 degrees in the trees meant that we were playing it safe on some low angle terrain. Despite the unstable conditions we found some super fun zones and had a hell of a time out on the sleds for the first laps of the season…
On top of the back-country action we found in CO, we jocked out at Copper, and sessioned the trampolines at Woodward…
Off to Salt Lake now, stay posted -
Wide Open…
EPISODE 2 - UTAH
After a dry start and some scouting, we began debating heading to Jackson, but the snow came. Enjoy Austen Granger, Ben Bogart, Yale Cousino, Casey Timms, Kyle Grant, and friends, having some fun.
Now we’re following the snow to tahoe.
