‘Human/Machines’ video

Burn have just released a short snowboarding video, Human/Machines. 

Directed by Johannes ÖstergĂ„rd, it explores the dichotomy between the technology and mechanisation of the snow park and the au naturel backcountry terrain, and both their roles in the progression of snowboarding.

It features team riders Gigi RĂŒf and Arthur Longo representing the blood, sweat and tears of digging and hiking, and StĂ„le Sandbech and Mathieu CrĂ©pel bigging up Pisten Bullys and Poma lifts.

Which one are you?
