SLEDLAND - A day in the Whistler backcountry with Olliepop Films

Avatar

SLEDLAND - OLLIEPOP FILMS

This day was a day of highlights on so many levels. Firstly there were three amazing riders who have been long time heroes of Olliepop Films’ cinematographer Jeremy Richardson. These riders were Ryan Tiene, Iikka Backstrom and Dustin Craven.

The next best thing about going out with three heroes was that they didn’t want to just hit one jump, nor two, but three jumps in one day!

We had to dodge a bit of weather as the clouds threatened all day but in the end it was an amazing day with the guys stomping some super clean tricks off three step-down jumps.

Some footage has already been seen in Snowboarder Magazine’s “Get Outta Town Project’’ Episode 3 - Whistler (seriously go and watch that if you haven’t) in the mean time this is all the footage we captured that day in what was our last day sledding for the season having wrapped up filming for our “When In Whistler” series presented by Boardworld.
