Pressure Drop: Great Bear Heli, British Columbia Segment

The 30th annual film from Teton Gravity Research, Pressure Drop, takes a monumental journey across the globe's most demanding mountain landscapes. One standout segment unfolds in the wild, untouched wilderness of Great Bear Heli Skiing in British Columbia. Notably, this operation is rooted deep within the remote Central Coast Mountains and boasts an immense, exclusive tenure. Furthermore, Great Bear Heli offers a spectacular mix of glaciated alpine, perfectly gladed trees, and consistent, deep coastal snow, making it a dream destination for ambitious lines.

This particular chapter of the film features two elite skiers known for their freestyle prowess: X Games Gold Medalist McRae Williams and two-time Olympian Teal Harle. They bring their unique aerial artistry and technical precision from the competition circuit directly into the deep, consequential backcountry. This blend of technical freestyle with raw big mountain charging is what makes the Great Bear segment a masterclass in the evolution of freeriding.

Filming in a remote location like Great Bear demands peak performance from athletes and gear. Fortunately, our partners ensured success by providing the tools needed for such a challenge. Teal Harle and McRae Williams relied on gear from Norrøna, Atomic, and Völkl, to endure the harsh mountain conditions. Meanwhile, Great Bear Heli managed the complex logistics of heli-skiing. In addition, SunCruiser, Tincup Whiskey, and Nissan supported the entire production.
