If you love snowboarding, you know there's nothing like a good snowboard movie. These films capture the spirit of the sport like no other medium can, and they're always exciting to watch. Snowboard movies are always fun and interesting to watch, whether seeing a world-class rider on their first trip down a mountain or seeing what goes into making a world-class movie. In this post, we'll look at some of our favourite films and documentaries made by professional riders - from legends like Jeremy Jones to up-and-comers like Jake Blauvelt (and everything in between).

The Art Of Flight

The Art of Flight is a 2011 action sports documentary film directed by Curt Morgan and produced by Teton Gravity Research. The film follows snowboarder Travis Rice as he travels worldwide in search of the perfect snow conditions.

The movie took six years to make and includes footage from various locations such as Alaska, Canada, Argentina, Switzerland and Japan.

That's It. That's All

This documentary takes you on a journey with Travis Rice. He is on a quest to find the perfect snowboarding location. Along the way, he takes you to Alaska, Iceland and Japan.

What I found most interesting about this documentary was seeing how people use the world differently than we might expect in America or Europe. For example, Japan has several mountains covered in green moss rather than snow. This allows for another layer of terrain for snowboarders to ride through and explore as if it were their own personal playgrounds!

It's also nice because it shows you what it's like being a professional athlete; where all your money goes after taxes; how hard these athletes work out every day just so they can be at peak performance when their sponsors come calling asking them where they want to go next year when its time again for new contracts."

The Fourth Phase

The Fourth Phase is the fourth full-length snowboarding film by Travis Rice and Jeremy Jones. The film documents Travis Rice and Jeremy Jones' attempt to summit the Shark's Fin on Mount Meru in the Himalayas.
