Icelantic athlete Hayden Price brings us up to speed about traveling with fellow Icelantic athletes in Japan filming episode 1 of the Return To Nature series. Click here to get some of the Japanuary Japow action!
"The light only shines in certain places this time of year and that coupled with snow consistency we found the parameters in which we could work. We focused on the man made features of cat tracks and snow gun formed mounds and ledges. After quite a bit of communication we had captured a few shots that we thought were worthy. This fueled the fire and we raced the descending sun on one of the shortest days of the year. To me these photos represent the small amount of snow necessary for fun..."
If this doesn't get you hyped for winter then we don't know what will. Last season Icelantic athletes Hayden Price, Scotty VerMerris, Amy David, Julian Carr, and Aiden Ulrich took Alta and the surrounding Wasatch by storm during the deepest days of the year with filmer and editor Andrew Mildenberger. Here's a little window into the experience. Enjoy, the deep days are coming. #ReturnToNature
Had a chance to catch up with our dude Hayden Price and get a tour of his spunky domicile on wheels. Check it out!
It's dark, it's cold, it's been snowing for a while. Click. Click, click. Click. Click, click. The sounds of the tech bindings attaching my feet to the feather lite skis that will gingerly grip their way up the mountain. So light it's like they aren't even there. With grace and ease I kickturn my way up the mountain, the summit getting closer with each step. Surveying snow qualities and visualizing the best descent from the peak I notice the mountains not caring that I'm there. This is for me, I find meaning in this pursuit and flow state combination. Skins are peeled from my bases and the skis take on a new life! I am exactly where I want to BE.
Since we started making skis, 10 years ago, we’ve known that some day, we’d work together with what we revere as one of the most important elements responsible for creating the ski industry we know and love today: The 10th...

I have been incredibly blessed to have never had a serious injury requiring surgery. I recover quick and my worst injuries include splinter fractured pelvis caused by rock fall and some concussions going back to my downhill mountain bike race days.... read more
A dismal snow year has it's up sides. The mountain biking has been all time! Living in Salt Lake City is all about the access. It may be the proximity to the Wasatch range that makes the "Door to Door" missions so appealing. Check out this ride from my house "The Blue Canoe" to the Trax line, Dry Creek and then down the infamous "Bobsled" trail. Filmed all on the Sony Action Cam Mini.
