SKI - The Greatest Ski Tour of all Time | First teaser Nikolai Schirmer 2024-10-22 | Hello, I'm back👋 Behind the scenes series starting Wednesday the 23rd on this channel.SKI (The Greatest Ski Tour of all Time)"The hyper commercial world of professional freeride skiing collides with the purist misanthropic ways of the mountaineer, when skier and filmmaker Nikolai Schirmer discovers that his reclusive childhood friend is embarking on a ski tour like nothing done before, and that he’s not planning to tell a soul.Vegard Rye is training to climb and ski 27 mountains in a single push. The equivalent of running four marathons while climbing Mount Everest from sea level - three times. To be able to achieve this inhuman feat Vegard is isolating himself from friends and family, living in caves and dedicating his entire existence to better himself.Nikolai sets out to share his friend’s story with the world, telling his sponsors it'll be The Greatest Ski Tour of All Time, and attempts to appropriate his friend’s snow warrior monk ways of training to lift his own skiing to new heights.Nikolai quickly learns it’s easier to sell a story than to live through it though. All the while the bigger question of why he lost his best friend and mountain partner so many years ago lingers."Theatrical release January 2025
