Uncapped: Behind the lens with Sandbox Part 1

Posted: Mar 30, 2010

Duration: 5 mins 33 secs

Each year riders work to produce all the pretty pictures and video that glamorize the snowboarding lifestyle. In effect it’s porn; watching someone effortlessly land a gnarly trick turns our crank, but it’s something that’s unattainable for most of us—a fantasy. The reality of getting just one shot for a video part is something much different than the final result. For every trick landed there’s dozens of bails. For every shovel full of snow thrown there’s a dozen fart and shit jokes told. Sessions can be the most grueling experience or the slackest time ever. For each crew, jump, or rail it always changes. Uncapped is a series that looks at the personalities behind the lens and how they approach professional snowboarding. In the first episode of the series we follow Andrew Geeves, Mikey Pederson, Geoff Brown, Max Ritchie and Eric Greene as they film for Sandbox on the Brandywine 1080 hip.
