Natural Selection Ski RECAP - w/ Manon Loschi & Craig Murray

This is the FULL event RECAP for the inaugural YETI Natural Selection Ski Following the footsteps of it's snowboarding origins NST SKI is carving a bold new line into skiing's history books with a new way to approach freeride competition.

12 skiers faced "Priority 1", one of Alaska's most legendary big mountain venues, with a single mission: create a film-quality, freestyle-meets-freeride line in real-time. At the center was the variability and grandeur of Mother Nature herself—who once again proved to be both an inspiration and a formidable challenger.
