Of all the free snowboard movies of 2012, Nitro Snowboards’ full length team flick, Hyped! was probably the one making us want to go snowboarding most. It is a great combination of stellar riding (by the likes of Eero Ettala, Austin Smith, Nils Arvidsson, Justin Bennee and more) and fun stuff on and off the hill that people can relate to. And this is what it’s all about, init? Or as we said earlier this year when the flick dropped:

This is snowboarding as it should be: fun shredding and bangers, and if this doesn’t make you want to strap in and shred you should probably check your pulse. Good job, Nitro. Mission accomplished!

Nitro Snowboards’ full length team flick, Hyped!, is now live and direct. Check the likes of Eero Ettala, Austin Smith, Nils Arvidsson, Justin Bennee and more bossing it and getting hyped.

Hyped! is the feeling we all get when we strap into our snowboards

Check out this fresh teaser for Nitro Snowboards’ goodtime-vibed team movie, Hyped!, featuring all their heavy hitting teasmsters, including Eero Ettala, Markus Keller, Austin Smith, Germund Bråten, Cheryl Maas and way more. Aside from the fact that this is way rad, it’s worth watching for Ettala and Eliassen’s re-imagining of William Tell’s decisive moment. Happily they fare better than Hunter S. Thompson did…

Here’s their chatter. Roll on October 22nd…

Nitro snowboards is making a full length team video that breaks away from the standard snowboard movie format and focuses more on what snowboarding is really about. The Hyped! movie will be released October 22nd.

Get ready to see Austin Smith, Eero Ettala, Jon Kooley, Justin Bennee, Bryan Fox, Mark Swoboda, Markus Keller, Knut Eliassen, Anton Gunnarsson, Gjermund Braaten, Cheryl Maas, Benny Urban, Eric Botner, and many more like you have never seen them before.

Nitro Snowboard Co. announces the release of their upcoming snowboard film HYPED!. The video will be released for free online as well as limited edition DVD in selected retail stores fall 2013.

HYPED! will challenge the conventional snowboard film format and try to convey the feeling you get while snowboarding with your best friends on a perfect day.

“Making a different type of team video was a huge endeavor to take on, especially during my first year on the other side of the industry. After seeing how much all the riders enjoyed filming for the movie, the smiles, falls, tricks, pranks, trips and the early edit from Per-­Hampus, I would love to do this every year. This video project defines the reason I snowboard!” – Knut Eliassen (Rookie Nitro Marketing Guy)

It’s not always about one-­‐uping your peers; sometimes it’s about enjoying the time you have on your snowboard. Documenting the Nitro team all over the globe, we experience sub par contest and resort riding in China, spin to win on the side hits of Bear Mountain, tits deep powder in the Austrian mountains, Boat trips in the fjords of Norway, Rails in Alaska, Park riding with friends, and much more.

Featuring Bryan Fox, Eero Ettala, Jon Kooley, Austin Smith, Justin Bennee, Knut Eliassen, Markus Keller, Anton Gun, Nils Arvidsson, Sam Taxwood, Erik Botner, and many more…

Bryan Fox is Hyped!

“We have been talking about a movie, planning for a movie and waiting for the Hyped! movie for the past 4 years and now it is here. The hype is real people.” ‐ Austin Smith

“Every trip I’ve gone on filming for HYPED! has been incredible. Amazing times equal an amazing snowboard movie. Also, Per Hampus is a wiz with that camera of his.” -­ Bryan Fox

“Nitro has always been one of the best snowboard companies out there with some of the best riders in the game, this movie will be refreshing because it will allow people to see what we do on an average day when we just cruise for fun, capturing what snowboarding is all about, having FUN!” – Justin Bennee

“Hyped! on Hyped! on Hyped!” – Jon Kooley

Videograss’ 2012 movie will be called “The Darkside”, which is quite appropriate after they shot the moon last year. The first teaser includes some finger-licking good riding. No doubt, this will be a production you should not miss!
