Josh Berman on Level 1 Eye Trip Premier


Taken from Skinet’s five question interview with Josh Berman…

“What is your last thought as the lights go out to begin a world premier of one of your movies?

I hope the computer doesn’t crash in the middle of the screening.”

I would have to agree with Josh – since this is going to be one of my computers and I will be quicktime command-f’ing it to the projector. This will be another hugely successful fun time tonight in Denver. See you there.

About Refresh:
10 years deep and still not satisfied –

Never before has the sport of skiing changed and progressed so much, so quickly, as it has over the past decade. With changes in equipment, accessibility of terrain, and most importantly the mindset of some of the world’s best athletes, skiing today is not what it once was… An integral part of these recent changes, Level 1 looks back and challenges perspectives of where the sport has come from, and where it’s going in their tenth-anniversary offering, “Refresh.” Keeping true to their humble roots while exploring every arena that skiing has to offer the Level 1 crew serves up the most diverse ski entertainment to date. New things will never get old- fresh images of big jumps, deep powder, technical urban exploits, steep lines, and memorable terrain park action with a collection of the sport’s best and brightest talent.
