YANN RAUSIS | SKIING BETWEEN


    A film project by Yann Rausis

    Freeride skiing is not definable. It lies somewhere between a sport and an art, between a pursuit of unbridled fun and a quest for a deeper connection with oneself and mother earth. It's about escaping and coming back, experiencing one's freedom and limits, and discovering one's folly and wisdom. Take a deep breath and relax as I'll take your mind for a ride.
