very redundant and just flat out boring. not a knock against snowboarding, just not a very entertaining film. it doesn't compare at all to a warren miller. there are some pretty sweet tricks done, and it was nice to see someone from Vermont on the screen,but i just thought it was really slow. they could have cut some stuff out to make it go by a little quicker and keep our attention onto the screen. i found myself kind of "day dreaming" through a few of the scenes because it was pretty much a a shot of the same thing over and over again. it was cool to see how it all began and how everybody got down when the sport was emerging, but after about an hour of it, i thought it was time to move on.
