For the latter half of the 2000s, Finland’s Antti Autti was one of the most dominant riders to don a bib in competitive snowboarding. X Games gold medalist, Olympian, World Cups, Autti had earned the accolades to continue an illustrious career on the podium. But he left that all behind to pursue what snowboarding had to offer outside of competition, exploring the world in search of the powder seldom found in his previous experience with snowboarding. Appraoch & Attack is his new approach to snowboarding realized, a different way to see the world. Due out this fall, Antti Autti has resurfaced as one of backcountry snowboarding’s most dedicated riders and he has recruited a great group of friends to share in his travels.

Second teaser of Approach & Attack
With help from local riders, Antti Autti and friends go deep in the backcountry in Approach & Attack, a snowboarding movie two years in the making presented by Anttisworld and Northlight Pictures.
From pipejock to backcountry destroyer turned out Antti Autti is releasing his third movie.
Few years ago, Antti made a total change in his game. After several years of riding contest after contest, altough with a great success, Antti decided he had to do something else. What he did was he followed a totally new path: he quit competing and began to shred powder, full-time.
Approach & Attack has been filmed for two seasons all around the world. With locations as New Zealand, Japan, Norway and British Columbia it has arguably the best spots and deepest powder Antti and his crew has ever ridden.
