Flipside IV: The Making of Absinthe's "Neverland"

By: Adryan Roane Ritter

It's no secret that Absinthe Films consistently pumps out one of the best snowboard movies of the year each season and this September's release of "Neverland" was no exception to that rule. Once again Brusti and his crew of filmers brought together an all-star cast of riders (DCP, Travis Rice, MFR, Kevin Pearce, MFM, Cale Zima, Bode Merrill and more) and as usual they have outdone themselves.

First things first, you can download the full movie on iTunes. Just click here to go straight to the source.

A movie as good as Absinthe's "Neverland" tends to do two things. 1.) It makes you REALLY want to go snowboarding and 2.) It leaves you wanting more.

This year GrindTV.com will be bringing you each of these 10 to 12 minute episodes, set to be released every other week. We're starting off with a bang here- dumping episode's 1 & 2 on you at once. So take a longer than usual lunch break, hide your laptop under your covers before you go to bed, just do whatever it takes to sneak away for 20 minutes and get your drool on.

Dude. Getting towed at a fence jump being strapped into a snowboard. No thanks. No way to escape when you lose it...
