Thread: Andreas Fransson - TEMPTING FEAR

We just launched the trailer for our new film called, 'TEMPTING FEAR - Inside the mind of extreme skier Andreas Fransson'. Let me know what you think.
- Mike D

Crushing it is what I think.

damn. that's going to be good.

i think that movie looks pretty awesome!

The south face of Denali is the greatest ski accomplishment I know of. To drop in on something that big solo without climbing the line is total commitment. I do not know of anyone else putting it out there at this level. Big respect here.

Damn...looks sick! Just like Deeper/Further, but with skiing. Can't wait to see it.

Inspiring line for sure.

Always found it interesting to get into the minds of top athletes and top thinkers . . . like this and look forward to checking it out.

Andreas is grandissimo.

More please

Looks to be very well done. Something a little different than the jib fest, huckster films out there!

Proper machine. Andreas Fransson is fast becoming a rock star (instead of the just rad-est legendary extremo skier in Chamonix). Good on him!

Look forward to the film!

Holy Hell, that's one gripping trailer...definitely a must see in my book.

WOW. hope that shows near me and/or comes out of DVD. I vividly remember the TR from the Denali ski, can't wait to see this!

this is probably a re-post here, but can't hurt to put it in here.

Here's Andreas's line on the South Face of Denali and video about it too:

Thanks guys! Glad you're stoked. The film is a bit of a mind trip and definitely not all like a normal ski film. It starts hitting film fests in October - Adventure Film Fest in Boulder is first up. Hopefully, it'll end up all over the place. We will be running the whole thing in it's entirety at some point in season 6 of Salomon Freeski TV.

I like where this is heading, a great divergence from the standard flick.

Keep it up!

<cough> Blu-ray </cough>

Andreas' blog is well worth a visit - in case you haven't. He is most definitely a thinker, and not afraid to put his ideas in words.

Scary and inspiring.

It's been submitted, so hopefully.

The world premiere of Tempting Fear is coming up this Friday at the Boulder Theatre as part of the Adventure Film Festival. I hope some of you Colorado folks can make it out. It'd be good to meet you there. I promise this will be nothing like any of the other ski movies you've seen this Fall. Here are the details...
