Review: Shem Roose
(October 13, 1998)
Sponsors: Marcus Egge, Jason McAllister, Derek Heidt, Gaetan Chanut, Joe Curtes, Etienne Trembley, and Roger Hjelmstadstuen
Riders:
Comments: This here is the second visual ditty brought to you by Jon Boyer. The opening of Dedication begins with the chants of Tibetan monks and a quote from our beloved friend Jamil Khan. Dedication is shot entirely on film and holds some unique editing styles that havent been seen in other snowboard videos. One of the highlights of the film is the freeriding of Marcus Egge and Jason McAllister at Revelstoke B.C. Its footage like this that makes you want to go out and ride immediately. Dedication welcomes the return of such riders as Derek Heidt, Gaetan Chanut, Joe Curtes, and introduces the talents of newer riders such as Etienne Trembley and Roger Hjelmstadstuen.
One of the most refreshing aspects of Dedication is the variety of music selected for each segment. At last, a snowboard film that doesnt use one song style for the entire soundtrack. The only weakness of this video is its length, which clocks in at approximately twenty-two minutes. If you like snowboard videos that arent filled with heelside rodeos or big Alaskan lines, I suggest you purchase Dedication. For more information contact Day 13 Productions at daythirteen@hotmail.com
