The same can be & ograve; said for his latest film, the number 66, shot in spectacular locations around the world including France, Alaska, Chile, Utah, Colorado and Nepal. In terms of plot, nothing & egrave; changed. It just did n & rsquo; & egrave; a. You see the best skiers and snowboarders in the world do we & ograve; which goes far beyond the dreams and possibilities & agrave; of most of the viewers of the film. Ci & ograve; even though the films of Warren, this time narrated by the medal & rsquo; Olympic gold specialties & agrave; moguls (bumps on descent) Jonny Moseley, are never the same as before.
& Lt; & lt; It looks like this & rsquo; year the production was able to throw in just about anything. & Ndash; said the star of extreme skiing Ingrid Backstrom & ndash; & Egrave; incredible & gt; & gt ;.
Ingrid Backstrom, 37, originally from Seattle but a ski instructor at Crystal Mountain in Washington, USA, & egrave; now a legend in the world of skiing and spends much of & rsquo; year around the world skiing. During his career, also participating in several Freeride World Tour where it appears 11th in the world rankings.
She and colleague Ian McIntosh appear in a segment of & ldquo; & rdquo ;, Chasing Shadows New Ski Movie house Miller shot this August in Portillo, Chile.
The Backstrom, currently engaged in the promotional tour around the United States, has just taken a rest from biking on the coast of & rsquo; Oregon and accepted this short interview.
How & egrave; I went to Chile? I found much snow? Absolutely, and & egrave; was a relief because & egrave; Initially we had a dry period. We would have to turn in July, but at that time there & rsquo; snow was all. The resorts were not even open. We then had to return in August, and you & egrave; proved to be the right choice because & egrave; we found ourselves deluged! The streets were closed and only the people who were staying at & rsquo; hotel had access to the slopes. & Egrave; It was wonderful.
Would you have liked to turn some other segment of the film? Rachel Burks is & egrave; made ski with a mono-ski with a group of fans of the genre and it looked really fun. C & rsquo; & egrave; also a section dedicated to the moguls skiers who do not & egrave; not bad, while the shot in Nepal & egrave; just crazy.
After your debut races at Whitman College, what brought you to the type of skiing that I enjoy now? After college I moved to Tahoe, in the Sierra Nevada, to take a sabbatical of pure skiing. A & rsquo; friend wanted to convince me to participate in a contest of freeskiing; I & egrave; always I like to do this kind of thing with friends, cos & Igrave; I accepted, and & egrave; It was a revelation. I thought & ldquo; This & egrave; definitely the place for me, these people take it very seriously but at the same time enjoys the big & rdquo ;. & Egrave; hard to describe how I feel about it, because & egrave; mine is the world of racing & egrave; funny. But in that world, the fun comes from the competition and the desire to improve. While in freeskiing you can do a descent fantastic & egrave; at the same time really, really fun to s & egrave because ;, & egrave; you can do something you thought possible.
Do you still compete on the track? Only rarely. And when it happens I feel almost embarrassed to turn around poles. Other projects in progress? I've just shot another film with Powder Magazine in output in this period, & ldquo; The Great Siberian Traverse & rdquo ;. We hopped on a train and we walked across the trans-Siberian through Russia to 9,500 km and skiing along the way. & Egrave; a short 25 minutes and turn it & egrave; It was really fun.
