The highly anticipated drop of 4bi9 Media's Gunnie Season trailer is filly upon us. This is only 4bi9's fourth feature length film, but you could consider them veterans in the game now. With a list of some of the top skiers in the world featured in their new film, it will be a must see. I recently sat down with the masterminds behind it all, AJ Dakoulas and Andrew pier, and their assistant videographer/editor Kevin Steen for an interview about their season, and the making of Gunnie Season.
This is the journey of Douglas Rodrigues da Silva, aka “Dalua”, who is in search of the Downhill Skateboard world championship. This sport is among the most dangerous in the world where the skaters go downhill reaching speeds over 110 km/h. Over the course of two years, the film follows the Brazilian athlete in his travels around the world revealing that beyond the competition there is a story of determination, passion, pressure and pain. Friendship and rivalry awake some rowdy feelings between the athletes. It is this common bond between them that also what keeps them apart.
