#TheMeeting7

The Meeting, “the premier gathering of snowsports filmmakers, athletes, sponsors, media and fans”, went down in Aspen/Snowmass this past weekend for the seventh year.

When I first went in 2005 with the Freeskier crew, The Meeting was only getting started, and, back then, for me it was basically just a reason to go party in Aspen for the weekend and watch ski and snowboard movies. Since its inception, The Meeting has grown in importance and this year Penn, Georger, Mavis, Laura, Lindsay and I were all there. Backbone’s new client, TGR, screened its new ski film One For The Road. Sigi from Kastle was also in town with Kastle athlete Griffin Post, who’s a breakthrough performer in OFTR.

There’s no other event quite like The Meeting – screenings of most of the major ski and snowboard films, thought-provoking panel discussions on the Olympics, the environment, and social marketing, and a bunch of fun-loving people converging in Aspen during one of the most pleasant times of the year.



Thanks, Aspen/Snowmass, for creating an event that celebrates skiing and snowboarding, and facilitates discussion about how to make them even better.



Here’s a little edit of the weekend. Sit back, go full screen, turn on the HD, and press play.
