Return of the Nina : A Right On Brother Film

Return of the Nina is a film by Right On Brother. It loosely follows the story of the 3 Giffin brothers, Zack, Jeff, and Sam as they live life constantly seeking adventure mostly by visiting the ski resort at Mt Baker. The film is truly different than most other snow flicks that come out these days and its very refreshing to see something different in a world of cloned movies. The are all great in their own endeavors, Zack being a skier, Jeff a telemarker, and Sam a snowboarder.

This is also the story of La Nina, a seasonal heavy snowfall that only comes around every once in a while, and Mt Baker footage from the years 1998-99 (World Record Season at Mt Baker) until 2006-07. The movie tells a story of the ups (classic shots of huge backflip by Sam and 360 by Tarek Husevold, the deepest pow shots, rides down the Mt Baker Arm and Hemispheres, Record Snowfall Levels) to the downs (Avalanches with footy of Mt Baker's Historic Avalanche on the Arm that sadly resulted in the deaths of 2 people - the first time this footage has been unveiled) to the happy moments (Flips off rocks, shirtless: skiing and snowboarding with no snow, funny personalities telling us why they love to ride, hanging with friends).

Return of the Nina is heartwarming, shocking, fun to watch, and definately will provide you with some fire to fuel your ride for another season in the mountains doing what you love. Its a refreshing look into your own reasons for why YOU ride, and lets face it sometimes we can forget how fun it is to ride and that we should do it for ourselves and its time to enjoy while we've got it.

Length: 52min
Company: Right on Brother productions
Produced by Studio 411
