If you missed TGR on their first run through town, you’re in luck… They’re coming back around again! “Stoke Season” is in full swing and our friends from the Tetons are coming back to NYC for another epic premiere. This one’s a DOUBLE FEATURE of a few more awesome TGR shred flicks, Roadless & Fire on the Mountain! Come join us when we join the team from Teton Gravity Research for an evening of snow inspired cinema.
If you did make it out last time they rolled into town… than you should already know better than to miss this… DON’T MISS THE STOKE!
On Tuesday, November 12, the one-night only premiere of Roadless, features Travis Rice, Bryan Iguchi and Jeremy Jones. The film follows these legends of the sport on a foot-powered mission through some of the most remote terrain in the lower-48.
Following that screening, there will be a special screening of Fire on the Mountain. Manifested from the mind of director Chris Benchetler, improvisation is the silver thread that weaves this film together. Just as the Grateful Dead did not fit their music into an established category, this short film finds a cast of some of the world’s best athletes on an improvisational journey of skiing, snowboarding, and surfing, all set to the transcendent music of the Grateful Dead.
You know if its snow on the East Coast, we’re going to be there representing… So get down and join us Tuesday, November 12th!
Roadless Trailer
About the film: In the winter of 2019, Bryan Iguchi teamed up with fellow snowboarders Jeremy Jones and Travis Rice to explore an untamed part of Wyoming on a 10-day human powered expedition.
Bryan Iguchi, Jeremy Jones, and Travis Rice have each followed their own unique journey to become three of the most influential people in the action sports industry. They have changed the way we interact with the mountains and continually re-define what’s possible. For the first time in their illustrious careers, these snowboarding legends are united by a common goal: To trek deep into the Yellowstone wilderness in search of groundbreaking first descents in the most remote region of the lower-48. This arduous journey through this winter landscape not only yields world-class riding but allows these three to reflect on their shared past and love of snowboarding in one of America’s last wild places.
Fire on the Mountain Trailer
About the film: For the first time ever action sports and the Grateful Dead are merged together in a film of eclectic style: Fire On The Mountain.
Shot during a snow and surf road trip, the journey starts in California where the athletes embark on a mission into the mountains. Mid-film finds the cast caught in the remote waters of the North Pole followed by a psychedelic dreamscape as they appear as skeletons shredding under the moonlight at Mammoth Mountain and surfing in Indonesia. Similar to a Grateful Dead show, they start and end in the same place but each of their respective experiences is a journey of their own.
Produced and Directed by Chris Benchetler. Narrated by Hall of Fame basketball player and television sportscaster, Bill Walton with music supervision by David Lemieux, audiovisual archivist and legacy manager for the Grateful Dead, Fire On The Mountain features some of action sports’ most legendary athletes: snowboarding’s Jeremy Jones, Danny Davis, Kimmy Fasani, surfing icon Rob Machado, and skiers Michelle Parker and Chris Benchetler. Captured over the course of the winter by cinematographer Tyler Hamlet the visual journey features never seen before visual effects within nature and original artwork by Benchetler and Skye Walker.
