GIVEAWAY!! Over the next few weeks, we will be giving away some awesome Grateful Dead-inspired gear such as Dakine's Team Baron Gore-Tex Mitts and Team Poacher Backpack, as well as apparel from our very own TGR x Chris Benchetler x Grateful collab. Comment your favorite part of the movie below for a chance to win!
How can we pick if I was in awe every second of it!? The narration was on point and the inspirational quote at the end was important! "convince each other that its worth the ride, and all about the FLOW" :)
As the music has always been creative and inspiring, I find the video being just as beautiful, creative, and as great as the music is and always will be. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us all! :)
Bill Walton is a national treasure and should be treated as such, I never miss a chance to hear his broadcasts! In 1975 at the SNACK benefit in SF I did a favor for a guy who changed my life, that guy was Ramrod and I toured with the Dead until they went to Egypt. I lost my entrance visa so Bill could make the trip, as Ramrod said "never trust a prankster". I ended up in the CSNY family for the next decade or so and I am so happy this all happened the way it did. RIP!

I'm not surprised that this turned out so well coming from the mind of a Mammoth local. I'm a snowcat mechanic at Mammoth and remember when they were shooting the night riding. It took a lot of cat support and the cats always break down more during storm cycles. All I knew at the time was that Benchetler was doing something on Hemlocks with lights and Dead music. Glad to be a part of it. All the events and competitions, plus everyday grooming, that depend on snowcats, would eventually come to a standstill without snowcat mechanics. Without snowcat mechanics, every ski area would be littered with broke down snowcats.
@@oregonsurfer I felt this was Barton halls "Fire"....was I correct? 1977 was full of my favorite Dead!...the best year in my estimation!....Swing aud 77 is my all time favorite!!
My favorite part: the moment the sky goes dark, the colored lights go on, the skiers drop as white glow bugs, and Fire on the Mountain from Cornell 77 kicks in.
I've been in the hospital emergency room for the past 39 hours in excruciating pain due to crohn's disease complications. This film is what I needed! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I've never seen such beauty, color, nature and inspiration while watching some of my favorite athletes doing what they do best to my favorite band! So amazing! Will help get me through surgery this afternoon with a big bright smile on my face! Thank you 1000x over and again!
Hope your stomach has healed friend. I know the deads sound guy had an all meat diet maybe that could help you. I have digestion issues and go to that when its acting up.
That Barton Hall Fire is just so amazing. I have listened to it SOOOO many times, and it still gives me chills. Superimposed with the skiers and surfers it's even more breathtaking.
Just started listening to and loving the GD a couple of yrs ago. Why it took this long, who knows. Better late than never! This blend of outdoor sports, freedom & love of Grateful Dead music & ethos is a recipe to feed the spirit.& soul.
The spirit alive and thriving. 250+++ years from now songs and music that The Grateful Dead left us with will still be played. Deadicated people - 'we're everywhere' - and forever will be out there. Bill Walton....just bless your heart man. Beautifully filmed and orchestrated. Well deserving of awards. What a great distraction due to well....you know what....
I saw them at the Lyceum, London '72. Amazing show & sound; we were mid-floor level. My English friends had never heard of them (!) and at first they were totally thumbs down....(they were into Yes and prog rock). BUT.... by about 4th song they were up dancing and they totally never stopped all the way through One More Saturday NIght (which was orgasmic) ....they became total deadheads right in front of me.
Great production! Bill, big red’s voice, the dead, the mammoth mountains, the paintings, machado surfing so much beauty. My son Nick Lozica is out there guiding people rock climbing, ice climbing, back country skiing etc… 23 year old doing what a youngster suppose to be doing. Jacked on life! Every time I watch this I feel his excitement and realize why his heart beat/ticks toward this lifestyle! Go, go, go and feel your youth, I only happens once and does go by. Create memories and experiences. Respect the game of life, it’s is a gift Fire on the Mountain! We got your back
That was one of the most beautiful films Ive ever seen. As a life long deadhead snowboarder and surfer, this made me shed a tear of joy. Forever grateful for the humans and the natural landscape this world has to offer. Much love everybody!!
As an old head--GREAT TO SEE creativity, love and respect for the jams and JERRY--of course you gotta have WALTON The Pied Piper----NOTHING BETTER THAN FRESHIES AND JAMS IN ANY MOUNTAIN TOWN. The feeling you get when you go to a show in a ski town at night and its dumping----the anticipation of the next day is almost too much to bear pure joy!!
This is a pure bliss film! Nicely done! Tips to the viewers: blast this on your 4k hdtv on full on surround sound and chew half a gummy bear! Your Tuesday night will be one to remember!
"...it's within nature that we examine our relationship with space and time..." Jerry would be proud! Also that shot where Jeremy slashes that ridge and it explodes on the bottom of his board almost like a tye-dye is so cool! Pow!!!
This makes me think of many kind days ripping pow before they drove the prices out the roof for the average person. 60 days every year of my life was looking for powder. Bill’s narrating this is so perfect rest his soul! He loved the dead. After his foot surgeries when he retired they set up a couch for him at the Frost so he could enjoy the shows. Beautiful movie!
My mom always talks about how she followed the Grateful Dead on tour back in the day. Showed her this and she was so stoked and happy! Great job TGR! Would love to surprise her with some of the Grateful Dead gear
What the athletes did was, of course, amazing. Watching them I kept thinking, "I could never." lol But I have to say, Tyler Hamlet's cinematography is breathtaking. What a great job all around. Thanks for making it available to watch. Happy Holidays!
This seriously is one of the best videos I have ever seen on the Internet. Massive Respect to the minds that created this unique masterpiece of a video!!
To have my favorite music w these visuals is a true gift. Thank you to everyone involved!! Pretty please do more...and show it in theaters on Omnimax- I need this GIANT sized!!!
My girlfriend has never seen a skiing video, I use to ski big mountains and love the Deads song Fire on the Mountain, she couldn’t believe the footage and what I use to do. This is absolutely one of the best ski films I’ve ever seen!!!!
the way the glowsuits light up the snow when they make a powder wave under the red and purple lights was just amazing. i love night riding for sure but that was on a whole new level. amazing.
Loved it. Nice job Chris and the whole crew. So sick to see Rob surfing with lights. The dead was a big part of my life, over 50 shows in my youth while going on climbing trips to near by climbing destinations that followed the Dead Really loved this. Feels good to see and here everything I live for in one nice short. Bravo, Joey V.
I so missed the boat. I was just getting into them a year or two before Jerry passed. I envey anyone who got to do some tours. I did manage to tour with fish for a couple summers so I partly know what I had been missing. I miss tour so much. But being an adult really gets in the way of the good life sometimes.
Bravo!!! This has made my isolation almost bearable. Beautiful camera work and the music is just perfect. And Bill Walton is a national treasure. I'm so glad the young humans have found this music and will hopefully keep it alive for all to enjoy. Just beautiful. I wish I could say more. 🙏
I guess I don't know enough about the process to use the right terms, but I think I mean everything it takes to product this work... filming, editing, whatever else...@@midi510

The narration was on point and the inspirational quote at the end was important!
"convince each other that its worth the ride, and all about the FLOW" :)
Just as the music plays the band, the mountain shaped the land and the ocean carved the sand.
Favorite moment was when Fire on the Mountain started playing and went into the jam.
As the music has always been creative and inspiring, I find the video being just as beautiful, creative, and as great as the music is and always will be. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us all! :)
Beyond incredible film!! The snowboarding after the boat trip was mind blowing!!
RIP BILL WALTON. A TRUE OG HEAD ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just added my Walton your Face sticker to my bent 110's 🤘
Bill is still our narrator. Never Dead. ❤
This is the kinda stuff that makes me proud to be a Deadhead. 💀
Yes
Dill Will always
@@codyg2485 Haha I love your pfp. From syl and a dead head.
Yes sir ❤️ forever and always
So many things make me proud to be a deadhead but the thing that makes me most happy is Grateful Dead plus snowboarding. Does it get any fuckin better
We're beyond stoked to share this film with the world, hope you enjoy!
Well done and thanks for making my day. Walton's preaching, The Dead, and breathtaking filming all complement each other so perfectly.
@@jeffreybanks0519 thanks for watching!
Merry Jerry Christmas and winter to me! Love it!
Awesome footage in some far out places. Thanks for sharing.
Is this the whole thing, or a preview? I could watch this for hours! Well done and thank you!!

Bill Walton meant EVERYTHING to us, growing up. Thank you, Bill, for all of it.

David Gilmour said something very similar about listening to Dark Side..
4 years later, still watching this all the time. ❤
Yeah this one never gets old! 🌜💨
Walton applying his musical taste, sports and media connections to good use. Thanks to TGR.
Bill Walton narrating, crazy.
Not really - Walton has been a friend of the Dead for years - probably on of the most public Deadheads going way back...Happy Sunday!
R.I.P. great man.
This is probably the most underrated film i've ever seen

Snowed so hard that the roof caved in!
Richfield OH, that one year they cancelled a show once due to crazy snow..opening with that
Thanks for posting this! Have a Jerry Christmas and a Happy Bob Weir!

Love it
NICE
It's perfect that Dave chose a track where Jerry f-'s up the lyrics.
This. Classic.

Dead fan,skier and snowboarder, 59 y.o. Just awesome...awesome.. awesome... the music will never stop!!! Best Part... all 27:27 of it
That Barton Hall Fire is just so amazing. I have listened to it SOOOO many times, and it still gives me chills. Superimposed with the skiers and surfers it's even more breathtaking.
Bill Walton doing the narrative was the cherry on top of a gorgeous and fun film. This old deadhead boogied a bit in his chair watching it!
Just started listening to and loving the GD a couple of yrs ago. Why it took this long, who knows. Better late than never! This blend of outdoor sports, freedom & love of Grateful Dead music & ethos is a recipe to feed the spirit.& soul.

I didn't know it was possible for something this pure and good to exist.
Greatest action sports movie of all time!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
This is soulful, visually stunning and it has the ideal soundtrack!
Loved the night shredding during Fire On the Mountain and Bill Walton's narration.
I saw them at the Lyceum, London '72. Amazing show & sound; we were mid-floor level. My English friends had never heard of them (!) and at first they were totally thumbs down....(they were into Yes and prog rock). BUT.... by about 4th song they were up dancing and they totally never stopped all the way through One More Saturday NIght (which was orgasmic) ....they became total deadheads right in front of me.

The Pied Piper----NOTHING BETTER THAN FRESHIES AND JAMS IN ANY MOUNTAIN TOWN. The feeling you get when you go to a show in a ski town at night and its dumping----the anticipation of the next day is almost too much to bear pure joy!!
Brought some tears to my eyes, never gonna stop loving the Dead, gotten me through so much. Thank you for this.
Wow the 2 very things that beat the walk of my life! thank you for this video!!🤙

Have not been so moved by a film in sometime. Great job!
Damn right
Yep. When Fire started I cried my eyes out
This is one of the most awe-inspiring pieces of film I have seen in the last few years. Bravo.
"...it's within nature that we examine our relationship with space and time..."
Jerry would be proud!
Also that shot where Jeremy slashes that ridge and it explodes on the bottom of his board almost like a tye-dye is so cool! Pow!!!
This will never get old. ✌️
Very nice production. 🤙🏾
This. Is. A. Masterpiece...
Now THIS is what I'm talking about. WOOF!
So sick to see a guitar player that I watch as well watch this film
I've never recognized anyone I watch comment on what I watch. Although, I'm not surprised to see you around Michael 😉
You're the MAN Michael! Good to see you on this video.
So glorious
Wish i could smash a million likes for this! I really needed this right now. Thanks to the gods and the
good old Grateful Dead!!!!
Even God cant explain the dead the ultimate mystery how did this happen in real life/time?!
This would be incredible to watch on Imax!!
What you have made here is incredible. Thank you for putting a smile on this old Dead Head. ❤️👍😎

a good friend sent me this doc this morning, two of my favorites snowboarding and the Dead
WOW, fare thee well my friends
Rob Machado flowing on some glassy ones + "Fire on the Mountain" = perfection.
Truly inspired to go out and shred some pow and push the boundaries of the outdoors films. Big win for you guys and gals. Thanks you for this.
I'm still in my Mom's womb. My folks play the Grateful Dead a lot. I know they will be in my life forever.

Love you radowski!!-! Thanx for keeping our vision alive!! Much love from NH
So good! Thank you TGR!
Thanks for the stoke!
This is the best thing ever, what's better than skiing and Grateful Dead?!
Someone's going to have to hold a master class on how the filming was done one day! nice work!!!
Don't forget the editing.
