The Big One
Length: 67:34

Film By: Teton Gravity Research

Channel: Recently Added

Locations: Jackson Hole

Description: Jackson Hole is one of the rowdiest ski resorts in North America and has been a catalyst for some of the most progressive freeskiing and snowboarding in the world. Teton Gravity Research presents a 16mm film, THE BIG ONE. This film is a compilation of 10 years of TGR's most epic ski and snowboard moments at their world famous home laboratory in Jackson Hole, WY. From Paul McCollister's vision of North America's largest tram, TGR's inception in 1996, and the 10 years of off the hook action that followed, this is THE BIG ONE. Check out some of TGR's earliest stars as they reflect on the most memorable segments. "Sick" Rick Armstrong talks about the all-time huckfest during the filming of the Continuum. Micah Black sheds light on the 30-year record snowfall at Jackson Hole -- possibly our deepest footage ever. TGR co-founder Todd Jones talks about ducking ropes and poaching lines while filming the Realm. See the story, be the ball.

A film about the Red Box, an orange truck, and 10 years of TGR in Jackson Hole.

"Ski hard, apres hard, eat dinner, chase women, go crazy, lay it down, get up, huck it up, boom, and it went around and around and around and around. It was really cool, the whole thing was bigger than us, the thing took its own shape." - Micah Black
