Snow Guardians – Ski Patrol en Search & Rescue

SnowGuardians_filmjacket_1080
Snow Guardians is een documentaire over het leven en werk van de Ski Patrol en Search & Rescue teams die gedurende de winterperiode dagelijks worden ingezet tijdens noodsituaties in de ‘backcountry’. De belangstelling voor de backcountry heeft geresulteerd in een groeiend aantal avonturiers op zoek naar plezier buiten het skigebied. De onvolmaakte wetenschap van lawine-studie en voorspellingen is het enige dat nog verschil kan maken tussen leven en dood voor het toenemende aantal ‘backcountry’ avonturiers. Leer van de experts over hoe je jezelf te redden tijdens een lawine of backcountry noodsituaties. Weet je eigenlijk wel hoe je een lawine-uitrusting – zoals een sonde, stok en baken – moet gebruiken om je vriend te redden? Hoeveel training heeft je ‘backcountry’ maatje gehad? snow-guardians-film-second

I have practiced a multitude of sports since my youth to the present. My first sports as a child were judo and athletics. Cycling, hiking, mountain biking, kyokushin karate, diving, baseball, golf and windsurfing, rowing and krav maga were added later.
