Come with us as we enter ... the Flow State
The Flow State is a place of such singular focus and connection with the environment that, there, a place only recently identified by scientists, as we go physically faster, the slower things appear mentally, the slower time passes. The film features slow motion sequences, showcasing the flow of skiing, the Flow State.
Get amped for the winter by watching Olympic gold medalist and NASTAR National Pacesetter, Ted Ligety, take on Alaska's mighty Chugach, and Julian Carr bombs down Utah's famed Wasatch. Featuring state of the art cinemetography, and world-class athletes including Colby West, Jessica McMillan and David Wise hitting the most stunning peaks in Alaska, Austria, California, Colorado, Japan, Norway, Switzerland and Utah and beyond, this cinematic endeavor promises to light up your senses. You won't see ski or snowboard action of this magnitude anywhere else. So buckle up, because this Warren Miller film will take you into the Flow State...where the mountain meets the mind.
