21 Incredible Photos from Red Bull’s Art of Flight

by twistedsifter

 

Released on September 8, 2011, The Art of Flight is a Red Bull sponsored documentary film about snowboarding on some of the best mountains in the world. The film took two years to make and takes viewers to places all skiers and snowboarders dream of riding such as: Austria, Alaska, Canada, Patagonia, Aspen and Jackson Hole.

Below you will find an amazing gallery of photos during the shooting of the Art of Flight. There’s also a sweet trailer at the end of the post which may cause a sudden desire to ride some powder immediately.

I’ve seen the film and the footage is unreal. In my opinion the movie did not deliver on the hype of the trailer (below) but the opening sequence in Alaska is utterly mind-blowing.
