I never make comments online but I have to on this video. I was very pleased with what he said at the end about the change in society today. Paraphrased, "People are more excited about the new app they have for their phones than taking a walk in the woods. Thats not a good thing." That thought stuck with me today and it made me proud that I don't have a smart phone AND I love to be adventurous and take a good 'walkabout'. I have seriously considered getting some snowshoes and doing this same thing in some of the neighboring mountains around me here in SE and Northern Idaho. Except this winter. Enormous lack of white, delicious precipitation this year.
What a dream news assignment for this reporter! Jeremy is a true backcountry icon. Just spotting him on Shasta or somewhere in the Sierras always elevates the day...
Actually, part of what makes Jeremy Jones so awesome is that he doesn't use helicopters now. He hikes for weeks into the back country to get his shots. It's part of his mission to raise awareness of environmental issues. His most recent film trilogy, Deeper, Further, Higher is heli-free.
That is so badass! Hiking your ass off for two weeks to get what you came for and all the while making one hell of a statement! Use your body to move, seek discomfort, it helps both us and the planet.
Jeremy jones is one of my favorites not only cause of all he does.. but hes goofy! finally a really good snowboarder who is goofy. Honestly until I found him I was a little discouraged cause I never saw good goofy riders on tv and even thought about making myself ride regular. You're awesome dude keep up the good work
Terje Haakonsen, while an amazing snowboarder, is not a big player in the splitboarding scene. Check out his "part" in Further (Jeremy's most recent film) and you'll see what I mean. He is crazy talented, though.
If it wasn't for Jeremy I would of never have got into snowboarding! Young black guy from DC snowboarding.. It's unheard of lol! Love this dude!!

have you consider switch?
There is this other dude called Travis Rice who's also a pretty decent Goody rider...
So glad he is involved in the sport, A king, a fore father, a man.

This guys needs way more cred! JJ's a demigod
This man is such an inspiration to me, would love to meet him!
That caption, "Jeremy Jones, Professional snowboarder" - should read "Jeremy Jones, Demigod"
Best news report ever
He made split boarding popular, not possible. Split boarding was a low key sport for 20 years, then Jeremy showed up with helicopters to film him.
His daughter was in my class for 2 years in elementary school.
i also knew their family pretty well
Oh do you
Brilliant anchorman.
He just inspired me .....
At 3:00 , Notice the difference between their walking style, the reporter guy lifts his leg as you normally do. Jones, sliding his. Reporter = newbie
lol i noticed that too, got me tilted
Bestest !
big ups to the reporter for going along
I´ll check it out
im close to getting the Jones mt twin. Have you tried it?
Question: is "this guy" at 1:04 the newscaster himself?
I saw him at my local skatepark and the strange thing is, he was riding a bike.
1:37...unreal.
double J still holding it down.
This is awesome; however, there is no irrefutable evidence that the earth is growing warmer.
Yes there is...we are more sure climate change is real than that cigarettes cause cancer.
Nice. Thats how it should be done. Earn your turn.
No!!!!!!! It is scp-1529!!!!!
cool ……..

If your going to split a snowboard, wouldn’t it be more sensible, time efficient, cheaper and easier just to rent/buy skis?
definitely not.that feeling of glide you get riding a snowboard in those slopes with so much powder is something no skis will ever give you
Not id we ask NIKE mickal jordan he clames that IS snahes powder parts
