Warren Miller's DYNASTY
Thurs, Nov. 12, 2010
Warren Miller's Dynasty revels the past, present, and future of winter sport. It is a film that gathers the generations under one filmic roof, from the Crist Family Patriarch to Glen Plake to Daron Rahlves, and the youth explosion of terrain park talent they've inspired. It's like a family reunion, held in neck deep pow, with mandatory air required for entry.
Want drama? Watch Chris Davenport bring his obsessive mountaineering to Norway's gnarliest peaks, the Lyngen Alps. Want excitement? Try a young gun invasion of British Columbia's Monashee Mountains by Chris Benchetler and Cody Hawkins. Want some perspective? Chris Anthony goes beyond deep into the mountains of central China in search of skiing's roots dating back to 2000B.C. Want heros? Meet the guides behind the guys at Cordova, Alaska's Points North Heli Adventures. Want comedy? Reunite with the pride of the midwestern ski community, Luke and Adam Schrab, as they turn Michigan's Timber Ridge into the X Games-with Packers jerseys.
Once again hosted by Jonny Moseley, this year's film finds epic snowfall, insane big mountain lines, and huge air in places like Washington's Crystal Mountain, Lake Tahoe's Sierra Nevada mountains, and all across Colorado. It's a one-of-a-kind look at a world you know like your own family. And it leaves no snowball unturned in celebrating everyone who has, does, and will forever be a part of Warren Miller's Dynasty.
