      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" :)

    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.

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.

    Wow this is such a beautiful, soul filled movie. The nighttime surfing and skiing is amazing. Soundtrack just rounds out an amazing movie.

    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!!!!

    Grateful Dead, Bill Walton, and outdoor adventure. Wow, combined together in this wonderfully artistic film is a beautiful thing! I particularly enjoyed the light suits slow motion jumps with blended light and colors.

    First saw The Dead in '78. Yea I was a bit late to the party, but heck I was still in High School and watching Bill Walton in the NBA. I skied Vermont and but never surfed. This was amazing, breathtaking, and just the right length. Love the period, '72 for music, some of my favorites and nice to hear Donna's voice. Peace to all and keep on keeping on.

    I think my favorite aspect of this film is how it's obviously a celebration of nature, music, art, and culture. Combining different modes of outdoor adventure with so many of our favorite athletes takes this film up a notch. I waited for so long for this to come out, and it definitely burst through my expectations. I love that it appeals to sooo many people- from myself, a 21 year old college girl, to the OG Dead fans, and everyone in between. The entire piece is so artfully made and a joy to watch. G R A T E F U L. Shred on. :-)

    Beautiful Film. Just got done snowboarding on Saturday and was surfing today (Sunday). Just easing into my Sunday evening when I came across this by chance. Life is not about how many acorns you can collect but how close you can get to that pure connection with nature. The ride is everything. And it doesn’t hurt to have the dead in your ears while riding it.
