BYND x MDLS: Laax & Japan — Ep 1

The BYND x MDLS series enters 2016 with a bang. The first episode of the season follows Tor Lundstrom and Kevin Backstrom as they live it up at LAAX in the Swiss Alps, meeting up with old time friends Ulrik Badertscher and Sebbe De Buck for some dreamy park sessions at the European mega resort. After a few sunny days of park shredding, the crew grabbed Max Buri and David Djite before taking off to Japan for some pow-heavy backcountry adventures in the volcano ridges of Asahi-dake. 

This one ticks just about every box you could ask for in a snowboarding video. Stylish park and backcountry bangers, good times with friends shredding, deep Japanese pow runs, and brilliant filming and editing. Watch it all unfold above.
