IF3 Toronto 2010



Last Saturday, The IF3(International Freeski Film Festival) in Toronto took place. Although winter isn't here yet, and snow hasn't begun to fall, nor will it for the next month or so, every one there was geared up and ready for the best season of the year.
As the credits starting rolling for Meathead Film’s Work It Out, the animated talk of those in attendance drew lots of attention to the relatable cast of characters of the east coast film company and their superb jib trickery. As the day grew on, the marathon of ski films grew in grand style, and so did the theatre, as more and more seats were filled. The eyes of those who filed into The Royal Cinema beamed, as deep powder and dazzling jib skills of an endless stream of top-notch ski talent glazed across the screen. The atmosphere of the young and old as the films flowed along grew tantalizing, seeing a huge diversity of the ski culture from the greatest steeps skied to the touching exploits of a young spiky-haired kid named Tanner Hall in Like a Lion.
The Festival gave everyone a kick to get through the remaining fall weeks before the white comes. At the end of the day, everyone attending had a great time and was memorized by the incredible ski talent that was shown there. Fun was had by all, and nobody can wait until next season's festival. If there was one more thing that I could say it would be I wish that I could be there.
