Freeskiing
Think you’ve seen it all on rails? Think again, this freeski edit is next level.
Jesper Tjäder has built the freestyle park of his dreams and decided to treat us to one of the craziest and most creative rail edits we've ever seen. The Swedish freeskier managed to pack three minutes of tricks and features in one amazing package, so if you haven't hit play yet, you need to do so now.
The crazy project that is "Unrailistic" started off with Tjäder becoming bored with regular slopestyle courses. With rail features looking the same year after year and slopestyle competitions focusing on jumps, something had to change. To break the mould Tjäder decided to build the park of his dreams in Sweden.
A sketchbook of ideas and six weeks of hard labor later, Tjäder's's imagination has been brought to life – this is a rail park like no other. It's a place where people can pull doubles off and on rails to their heart's content. Swing to rail? Check. Rail to big jump back to rail? It's got that too.
Tjäder also teamed up with Field Productions to bring the park to the screen and the resulting video is fun and creative in equal measure. The edits builds to a crescendo, ending with the announcement of "Supervention II," the sequel we've all been waiting for since 2013.
"Supervention" set the example in how to open up core skiing to a mainstream audience. It was screened in cinemas across Norway and went on to be released on a variety of physical and digital formats. It's also available on Netflix. The film blew the minds of audiences of all ages, and with skiing like Tjäder’s in Unrailistic, this sequel is sure to be every bit as thrilling as the original.
