There is beauty in simplicity. Think about all that goes into descending a mountain. There could be jumps, natural hits, maybe rails or jibs. Take that all away and you are left with one thing: the turn. To us, watching someone flow through terrain interpreting each minute change in the snow ahead is one of the most inspiring aspects of snowboarding. The third chapter of Statements from Antti Autti applies that philosophy to the backcountry of Japan, a place where the soul of the powder turn is thriving. It takes talent to pull off a video that showcases just turning, but Antti, Nicholas Wolken and friends do exactly that.

¨Simple turn in the right place like a perfect bank can be the most rewarding feat in snowboarding & that’s why I want to focus on it to get most fun out of the day on the mountain.¨ – Nicholas Wolken
