Poor Man's Heli

The Deeper crew swing another episode from the back seat of their Jeeps. Dunno, the more I see these teasers the more I’m thinking I just want to see quick cut scenes of people hitting a cheesewedge while MGMT (wait, the tight jeans/hipster meets hippy 80s synth redux thing is dead? Fine, let’s go old school and throw some brohymn in there…but can we get a version where the opening bass riff is played on a keytar?) plays in the background.

Pausenot.

Between the part in the Krakauer book I’ve been reading about flying around AK, to the new Surfers Journal article about scouting lines from a plane, makes me want to revisit getting my pilot’$ licen$e.

This time it’s from the boys at Absinthe, who know how to put a film together.

(Yes, the audio cuts out somewhere past the 2minute mark. Not sure what’s going on there, the vid they have on their site is only 2 minutes and changed so maybe a Youtuber spliced some new footage in there?)

Oh, and a sick little trick by Mr. (you have to address him by Mr. after he did a stint in AK with the Deeper crew!) Travis Rice

Brian Pattee at Down the Middle custom splitboards recently got the call from Mr. T. Rice, who was looking to get a few boards split before he headed to Alaska to film with Jeremy Jones and the ‘Deeper‘ crew. The fact that Travis had to call up Brian means that obviously the long rumored Lib OEM split is still at least another year out. This guy does INSANE work (check the middle edges), I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves….
