FLAKES
Powderwhore Productions is proud to announces the release of
their 5th tele- mark ski film ‘FLAKES’.
We spend most of the year chasing, skiing and celebrating these wonderful fro-
zen crystals that fall in deep quantities. The rest of the time, we create
moving pictures to document the incredible experiences that winter provides.
FLAKES showcases the deep and light powder from around the world that our audience
has come to expect, blended together with the often flaky characters who thrive
on this wintery existence.
Breaking trail into the backcountry with today’s most talented telemark
skiers, we used slide-cams, remote helicopters and headlamps to bring our creation
home in a new light and perspective. Nick Devore, Will Cardamone, Andy Jacobsen
and Andy Rosenberg expose Haines, Alaska, after being dumped on a glacier for
a week long expedition. We spend one perfect afternoon of powder skiing in
Patagonia beneath Cerro Fitzroy. Jake Sakson makes a statement with his breakthrough
performance as the clear up -and-comer in the freeriding tele scene. Go behind
the scenes of how the other half lives with ‘Powderwhore Cribs’ featuring
Nick Devore humbly dwelling in his teepee. Jason West finally makes a jaw dropping
appearance displaying his affinity for catching serious air. World Champions
Megan Michelson and Paige Brady are the few and the proud women not afraid
to push the limits and claim their powderwhoredom. The big lines of Valdez,
Alaska, take a slashing from the fast and fluid turns of Chris Er- ickson and
his helmet cam. And yes, there is plenty of the same old deep face slapping
powder skiing from Jonah and Noah Howell.
Shot entirely in HD, this hour long showcase of last winters adventures travels
from Patagonia, The Wasatch Mountains, Haines, Valdez, The San Juans and Aspen.

"Harmless" is a manifested dream to travel the world, experience new places, learn from other cultures, try different foods, make new friends, and feel irie by exploring new terrain in deep, fresh powder. harmless is a dream come true.
Yardsale
A short film by Biff
Did you ever meet the guy that was a legend in his own mind? Someone that was the BEST at everything and always had to let you know? Did you ever secretly wish he would wipe out and do a massive yard sale under the lift? Your fantasy comes true in this short film shot at Mt. Abram in Maine and using the amazing acting talents of the NET crew.
THE GREATEST TELEMARK MOVIE EVER
By The Hairy Donuts
What would the festival be without the Hairy Donuts? This year's is a documentary. I won't spoil it by giving details but I will say this... The avalanche scene is "to die for".
Come into Brunswick and go to Maine street. Head up Maine (away from town). You will pass a church where the road branches off to the left (Old Bath Road) or stays straight . Stay straight through the intersection. Take your next left (you will see a statue of Joshua Chamberlain) and this is an access road running along side Bowdoin College. Park where you can and look for the art building (right along side the road, has two large columns in front and a large archway through the middle of the building. Kresge auditorium is downstairs in the art building. It seats about 280 and has filled past capacity the last two years so come early.
