Gravity Feed: Deep Spine Landing, Terrain v. Train Management & Jone’s on a Tether

TGR breaks down three all-time film segments: Nick McNutt's spine air, Teal Harle's Pressure Drop BTS, and Jeremy Jones' epic heli-access in Soul Purpose.

Nick McNutt on a Knife Edge

Back in 2014, while filming for the film Almost Ablaze, McNutt showcased his uncanny ability to manage speed and terrain. The sequence begins with him leaning into a knife-edge spine, that's pure cinematic gold. The commitment crescendos as he takes a huge air, testing the landing gear on a steep, almost uphill transition. This is how you etch your name into the history of big mountain shredding.

Behind the Scenes with Teal Harle

Terrain management is the name of the game, and nobody plays it better than Teal Harle. This segment takes us behind the scenes at Great Bear Heliskiing while the crew was filming for our 30th annual feature film, Pressure Drop. The raw, high-energy clips showcase Harle absolutely firing up the zone, combining backcountry lines with freestyle fluidity.

Jeremy Jones Hanging by a Thread

When we talk about earning your turns, sometimes the effort involves a literal dangle. This iconic moment from the 2004 film Soul Purpose features Jeremy Jones going to extreme lengths—or heights—to access an untouchable couloir. The clip shows Jeremy hanging by a thread, suspended over a hundred feet below a helicopter. It's a powerful illustration of the lengths our athletes and crews will go to capture the untamed experience. The best lines are never easy, and this TGR All-Time Moment is a powerful testament to the relentless drive and calculated risk-taking required to pioneer new terrain.
