TGR Trailer

Ski and snowboard film giant Teton Gravity Research (TGR) recently dropped the trailer for the second installment in Jeremy Jones' snowboard trilogy "Deeper, Further, Higher." Watch the trailer here.

For those that don't know, TGR is the producer of award winning films such as "Light the Wick" and the 2011 epic "One For the Road." Filming across the world in locations such as Wyoming (in the Tetons, where they got their name), Alaska, Japan, Romania, Patagonia, and many others, TGR has set an industry standard for ski and snowboard films.

Set to release in the fall of this year, "Further" follows Jones and his contemporaries as they travel the globe searching for solitude and untracked powder.

From the TGR website, "Further will explore some of the world's most remote mountain terrain while continuing Jones' mission to camp deep in the backcountry and on the summits of unridden lines to access nearly vertical spines and wide-open powder fields. Join Jeremy and his crew as they push their minds and bodies Further."

If the feature length film is anything like the two and a half minute trailer, we won't be disappointed. Following the ski-mountaineering style of "Deeper" Jones and his crew trek through the backcountry to climb isolated mountains with crampons, ice axes, and splitboards. Once they reach the summit, they load up their packs, strap in, and bomb down virgin lines that you can't help but be jealous of.

  1. I never have been much of a big ski and snowboarding guy since I haven't been good at either. Learned a lot here though, good job.
