Alex Mason, Mickey Wilson, Sylvan Slacks, Canyon Cain, Eric Hake, Purpłe, and I had an incredible time creating this short video with Devin Supertramp. I got a phone call a few days prior saying that we had an awesome location ready to rage in and if I could find a team and a theme that Devin would love to film it. I made some calls, got a team together, and we all got stoked.
Gibbon Slacklines sponsors me, Alex, and Mickey, so it seemed to be a perfect opportunity for us all to meet up and see what we could throw down on the new lines. With Gibbon’s help as well as the help of Redbull (who rented Alex and I a car to drive the 28 hours there and back) as well as some support from Team SuperTramp... we all arrived at the ice castles only 48 hours after that first phone call! Sometimes speed is essential in creation, and this was one of those times.
When we got to the ice castles we found out then we had a little more of a challenge than we expected. Rigging on ice provided for a super fun challenge and falling on ice is just like I remember... painful. We ended up trying to use ice screws, and A-frame lines, and with the castle quickly melting, we had to get creative. All in all we came up with some rad ideas, put them into action, and made an EPICly EPIC video from the 12 hours we had to film! Cheers to efficiency and effectiveness! This trip definitely was a blast and everyone did a great job. Enjoy the video ;D
