THE WHY
SKIFILM
 

Bad weather, harsh conditions, avalanche risk. Why are we doing this?
After a failed ski-expedition to Tajikistan back in 2019 the pro freeriders Fabian Lentsch, Max Kroneck and Joi Hoffmann are trying to find an answer to this question together with mountainguide and psychologist Pauli Trenkwalder. They talk about the reasons of running high risks in extreme sports and voluntarily exposing yourself to great danger.
