Early Backcountry Days

We had a great day with riders Chris Rasman, Dave Short, JF + Vince Fortin and photographer John Scarth. Jumps, pillowlines, and powfields were shredded in abundance. Here are a few snaps we took along today's excellent journey in Whistler's beautiful backcountry!

Greasing the wheels...


We just came off a pretty nice week of filming up here in BC's backcountry. Conditions were prime and our crews were itching to ride some pow. Didn't really bother building any booters just wanted to strap in and session natural lines and drops.

Our crew for one of the days was Dufficy, Benji, Gaetan and Chris Rasman. Here are a few pics from one day filming.

We took up Gerhard Gross from SBC magazine this day so look out for a video he is going to release in the near future about shooting with Alterna.




One minute earlier Benji was in mid method can you tell?

Duff giving the rookie some pointers...

Gaetan prepping an early season cliff drop. We have never shot this cliff but have sledded by it for years, Gaetan has a plethora of knowledge when it comes to zones anywhere around Whistler.




The infamous smile is back!
After an injury to his arm last season Duff is back on the crew for 2010.
