The Art of Flight

The Art of Flight (2011) is a snowboarding documentary you can watch online on iFILM. Director Curt Morgan follows legendary rider Travis Rice and his crew to the far corners of the map in search of the perfect line.

The team chases untouched powder from Alaska to Patagonia and British Columbia, with helicopters dropping riders onto wild ridges no chairlift will ever reach. The camera catches launches off knife-edge spines, runs down near-vertical chutes, and that brief weightless beat the whole thing is built around. The mountains don't forgive, though: avalanches, hard crashes and weather that wrecks the plan all make the cut.

Shot by Brain Farm and bankrolled by Red Bull, the film set a benchmark for camerawork in action sports, from slow-motion to aerial helicopter shots and views that genuinely steal your breath. There's no plot in the usual sense, just adrenaline, a heavy soundtrack and the mountains. A perfect pick for snowboard fans and anyone who loves gorgeous footage of the wild.
