40secs - UMEŅ Warm up

This last PirateLog of the "BottomLine" season is all about Riksgränsen. Every year we drive all the way up north to get the last back country shots for our main movie. Watch Arthur Longo, Kalle Ohlson, Chris Sörman and Markku Koski perform on snow and rocks!

Marco and Kalle are two hard workers and solid stompers but both take a beating once in a while. This is a reminder that flying high and dropping deep has consequences when a detail is wrong - that's when maneuvers get out of control. It doesn't matter how good you are - sooner or later you will eat shit!

Everybody needs a good old fashioned crash sometimes. It wakes you up and reconnects you to your body and mind...but it can be painful too! Even Arthur Longo and Gigi Rüf got rebooted a few times last season and came out fine in the end. Arthur was scoring the opener of Unique8 and Gigi claimed the ender!

Check out Werni Stock, Kalle Ohlson and Simon Gruber session the multi obstacle hip in Val Senales.

Here you go with the second part of PirateHistory with Gigi Rüf. This time Gigi is talking not only about the production's reasons to change from Super 8 to 16mm, but also his personal benefits of filming at home with his crew. You can also witness some outstanding footage from his parts as well as shots from his Pirate Intros. Enjoy!

Gigi is a Pirate and everybody knows that! This clip shows you more about his involvement in Europe's finest Snowboard movie production and its crew. Lean back and watch how everything started a decade ago at the Backyard Camp in the Austrian Alps. This season the Pirate crew is filming for their 10th movie! Gigi is hyped to be back on track after a year with Volcom filming for 9191. Stay tuned for Pirate History with Gigi Rüf 2/2

This edit is all about the W I N N E R of last year's Rookie Challenge - SVEN THORGREN ! He came by the Pirate's HQ in Innsbruck last spring to join a session and getting to know the crew. This young man from Sweden is not only an outstanding stomper with g00d style but also got a helpful, interested and mellow character. Keep it up Sven!
