This is from Storm Show Studio’s Darrell Miller.

It’s not always the ultimate ski-dream in Alaska, there’s a lot of downtime waiting for the perfect conditions. We found this out during our 2008 spring pilgrimage to Valdez, on assignment from Cloudveil to shoot their gear and athletes in some of the burliest terrain in the world. To keep our sanity in waiting for the skies to clear, we kept ourselves busy with other endeavors: Slackline, snowshoeing, snowmachine-assisted ¼ pipe jibbing, and a little rest & relaxation. Don’t just read about it, check out the video clip to see the shenanigans for yourselves. With a solid group of friends, there’s always fun to be had in Alaska!

This HD epic, two years in the making, follows Rice’s last vid: the popular Community Project.

Snowboarder Mag hails That’s It That’s All as best skiing/boarding film to date: “This production is so ballin’ that it has heli follow cams of heli’s follow camming, and it has a lot of them … it appears as though Travis will be much more the focus of the film than in the latter offering, and that is a good thing. Travis’s double corking madness needs to be seen to be believed. Director Kurt Morgan has captured the gnarliness of Rice and has come as close to bringing as much to the shooting from behind the lens as Rice does in front. I’m sure these teasers will be in heavy circulation on the web in no time.”

One more mini teaser of the movie of which one snowboarder asked: Is this a National Geographic movie or snowboarding?

As we flew into Alaska the endless snow caked mountains were glowing orange with the sunsetting, it was then that it hit me that I was about to spend two months exploring Alaska. An overwhelming feeling of excitement rushed over me.
