Speedriding 'The Unrideables' Documentary: Alaska Range - TRAILER

Speedriding = High-Speed Flying w/ skis on... it's kinda crazy!
by Updated December 30, 2014

Speedriding is a high-speed, high stakes mountain sport that fuses elements of skiing and parachute flight. This hybrid approach to the alpine gives its intrepid practitioners access to terrain that would otherwise be inaccessible. In The Unrideables: Alaska Range, one of the world's foremost experts on human flight, Jon DeVore, sets out with a team of elite aerial athletes to evolve the sport in North America's most remote and demanding mountain environment. Look for the full-length documentary releasing this January.
