Volume 9: The Sage and Pep Show

Details, details

Volume Video Magazine Issue #9
$25
www.blueribbonproductions.com








Blue Ribbon Productions is the PBR of the world of ski movies: it's inexpensive, crafted with pride, and in most cases can hang with a more sophisticated product. On top of all that, their newest brew-Volume 9-is foaming over with more two-plankin' badness than you can fit in a doublewide.

Volume 9 is highlighted by profiles featuring interviews and footage of Sage Cattabriga-Alosa and Pep Fujas. Both riders exude style and talent equally in park and big mountain skiing. While each of their segments features this versatility, they're decidedly different in focus. Sage's clip shows him dropping big lines and basically jumping off everything in sight. Chris Collins sums him up well in the video: "He's stoked almost to the point he's goofy out there." Pep, on the other hand, nonchalantly throws huge 360's in the pipe, a zero-spin transfer jump, and a roof drop to rail that will make your mother cry.

The rest of Volume 9 features contest coverage from the past season. Sarah Burke caps it off with a clean, gold medal-winning 900 onto bulletproof snow at the U.S. Open in Vail. Tanner Hall's clips throughout the video are thoroughly humbling, but his rail sliding 'Trick Tip' is thoroughly uninformative: "Approach rail, ollie off jump, turn body, land on rail, slide, stomp switch, and ride away clean. Make sure you approach the jump with speed, or else you will fail miserably." Thanks Tanner. Now I get it.
