This is the best collection of ski photography in New Zealand history. How did a snow-sports outlier spawn some of the best skiers in the world? This is the story of a new type of skiing that launched wave after wave of ripping Kiwi skiers onto the global stage. In the resulting carnage it was often the New Zealanders who were left standing on the podium; leaving in their wake tongue-tied commentators, roaring spectators and the lifeless husks of their adversaries.

PRODUCT DETAILS

The Story of New Zealand Freeskiing has captured, condensed and committed New Zealand's best ski photography to the page in a visual history of a sport whose playing fields create their own weather. You'll find all the characters, mountains, technology, style and soul spread lavishly across 176 pages of full colour, hardcover-wrapped alpine goodness.

Printed in New Zealand on FSC paper with all profits to Edenprojects.org to reforest Madagascar.
