Coming in 2017, YETI presents Charged, a feature length documentary film about the incredible journey of Chef Eduardo Garcia. In 2011, Eduardo was shocked with 2400 volts of electricity in a freak incident deep in Montana’s backcountry. Near death, alone and miles from help, Eduardo got up and took his first step towards what would ultimately be years of recovery and rehabilitation.

Time for a ski teaser. Real Skifi 15: “Riding on nothing in Stockholm” demonstrates that you don’t need to wait for the chairlifts to turn (or snow to fall for that matter) in order to enjoy a good ski outing.

The Finnish skiing collective Real Skifi has been dubbed as some of the sports true
innovators. In Episode 15, they visit a snow free Stockholm, Sweden. This forces them to
be more creative than ever.

The Backstory

Real Skifi hails from Jyväskylä, Finland and consist of riders Verneri Hannula, Ilkka Hannula,
Juho Kilkki, director Janne Korpela, and filmer Anton Geier. Their quirky films are part of the urban skiing movement where cities become a creative playground.
A hallmark for the Real Skifi films has always been the crew’s relentless hunger for stretching the boundaries of where it is possible to ski. This ambition faced an extreme challenge when the riders found themselves in Stockholm completely without snow.

See how they overcame it in the film below.

How can you express everything that you want to somebody you love, knowing that if you don’t, that might be the last opportunity that you have? That is a reality that we all face, but for BASE jumpers, the risk of death sometimes results in something amazing and unexpected – love. this mesmerizing short film makes you smile; it makes you cry and it makes you appreciate the bond athletes share as they risk their lives for things we grounded folk scratch our heads at.

When We Were Knights, the story of Matt Blank and Ian Flanders’ friendship, is as unapologetic as it is magical and charming. As the narrator puts it, “You either live a genuine life that’s true to who you are, or you don’t. Our genuine life was one that was full of risk. So that’s the life we lived.”

This is the real story of a pure love between two friends in the face of risk and tragedy.
