This adventure film is an effort to capture the emotion, struggle, and elation of backcountry skiing and snowboarding while focusing on avalanche awareness, environmental stewardship, and innovation in the sport.
Thrillhead Creations is a grassroots production company started by two recent CSU graduates committed to creating films, promotional videos, and broadcast programming in a fresh and innovative manner that supports a sustainable network of businesses and promotes environmental stewardship.
“Today’s ski movies have a very narrow focus and don’t show everything involved with skiing in the backcountry,” co-owner Jesse Levine states. "We wanted to make a movie that captures the full experience of backcountry skiing while focusing on avalanche awareness and environmental stewardship.”
“Shralptown showcases up-and-coming skiers and snowboarders of the west,” explains Jesse. The movie will feature the deep powder of Utah, secret stashes in the Colorado backcountry, Sean Crossen’s quest to ski all of Colorado’s 14,000 ft peaks, the emerging splitboard revolution, exploration of the Scandinavian Glacier deep in the Chugach Range of Alaska, and new lines in the remote southern Andes of Argentina.
