Colby Stevenson’s Phantom shows that he is getting ever more comfortable in the backcountry and we are here for it.
Behind every good hip hop track there is almost always a great soul sample: From Mos Def ripping Aretha Franklin, to Biggie reworking Mtume or MF Doom spitting on Sade. But it’s rare that behind a good freerider is an even better slopestyle skier.
In building this edit, Patrick Ring has highlighted that both can be true. Colby’s ability to ski spines and steep faces, while also being at the top of the FIS slopestyle rankings, is truly mind-blowing and deserves admiration.

We set out for 10 days of sled skiing in Wyoming, then sat around for 3 weeks in Alaska alongside Sage Kotsenburg. We waited out snow storms, then finally had two days out in the heli to finish off the season with Stellar Adventure Travel. Jack Francis and Luke Bredar provided a calculated cinematic experience, and captured these moments with precision. We truly love what we do and enjoy every step of the process. Excited to keep the fire burning and continue to make these projects!
