Brap Ski 4

Liberty Theater

Brap Ski 4 celebrates the 2 funnest sports on planet earth: brappin' and skiin' “Karl Fostvedt has been dropping “Brap Ski” films for almost half a decade. In that time, he’s come up with some down-right wild ideas. Last year, the crew skied through the Southern Utah desert, painting silky turns and finding airs amongst the red rock walls. This year, they (somehow) stepped it up by returning to old stomping grounds and finding new spots, too. Along with Thayne Rich, Addie and Toby Rafford, McRae Williams and more, Fostvedt cooked up a few of the best segments we’ve seen so far this fall. And yes, that includes the “Karl and Thayne throw tricks through actual fire” segment.” -Jordan Grant-Frenz (Freeskier)
