Level1Production (hereinafter L1P) on October 1st.
As you can see, the video is garnering attention for its unique style, featuring skiing, snowboarding, and powder surfing, a style never before seen in L1P films.
The cast includes a connoisseur's favorites, including Parker White, Lucas Stål Madison (LSM), and Duncan Adams, and is overseen by Freedle Coty, who has worked with them for many years.
The locations are Hokkaido and Mt. Baker in the US, with heavy snowfall and powder targeted.
What kind of work will it be?
we spoke to @nomadgoro the owner of Cafe Nomad in Higashikawa Town, who attended to Parker White and LSM during the Hokkaido tour, about
I first met Parker two seasons ago, during the shoot for Romance, the final L1P film.
His traveling companion, LSM, contacted me through Peak Performance, my company, asking for recommendations on spots around Asahidake and other backcountry areas (without hiking, of course).
At first, I showed them maps and we talked about it, but it started to get too much. So I said,
"OK, I'll show you some great snow! I'll even prepare a meal at my place!"
(laughs).
Then, I used weather charts and snowfall information to match my own knowledge of spots, searching for slopes that would satisfy them.
When accompanying them, I would help them find the right location, and when I couldn't, I left it entirely to my photographer friend, Yasu-kun (Yasushi Shimanuki). Despite the nature of the shoot, they seemed very satisfied.
Then last season,
"We'll be back again with the same crew this year. Looking forward to it
." Apparently, this time it wasn't for an L1P film, but rather Parker's own project.
We hugged excitedly as we reunited, and the first thing I noticed was the amount of gear they brought.
LSM left their powsurf and skis behind in Hokkaido last year.
Parker only had his powsurf and snowboard.
"What?! You're not skiing?"
I asked Parker, to
which
"We love powsurfing and snowboarding, as well as skiing!" As we chatted, I quickly realized they were looking forward to Hokkaido's mellow tree lines and the best snow.
However, as everyone here in Hokkaido knows, last season's snow conditions were terrible. Yasu and I talked with them more than last time, and spent more time together than last year. It was almost like we were emptying our drawers. I
can't wait to see how it all turns out, including the Hokkaido portion we were involved in.
