True To This (2014)
Not specifically a snowboard film, this masterpiece from Volcom covers the worlds of skate and snow too. With no rider names, you’ll have to be pretty clued up on all three sports to know who’s doing what at any given time. However, that’s not what True To This is about. The disciplines blend together seamlessly, with the whole movie smacking of Veeco’s unique style from the shots to the soundtrack.
You may agree with Dan Brisse in thinking that the juxtaposition with surfers and skaters makes snowboarding look soft, but the riding of Brisse, Pat Moore, Bryan Iguchi et al is still pretty epic.
Watch this when: hanging out with fellow sideways-standers.
