Enter a world of magic and mystery, in my own head, where surfing and snowboarding are considered real jobs! Amazing feats of daring and skill are performed every day - and that's just getting the footage onto film!

It's been a few months now since the Red Bull Supernatural event and I have been patiently waiting for this moment - the full Tv show from the States is now online for you to watch! The most unique and ground breaking Snowboarding event of all time, Supernatural was the brain child of backcountry and Big Air king, Travis Rice. Sit down, grab some Popcorn and prepare to have your mind blown...
The coolest event in Snowboarding finally made it onto American Television over the weekend and we can only hope, that somehow the show makes it to SA Screens. In the meantime here is the full web video to salivate over. Supernatural is the brain child of Red Bull and Travis Rice and takes the free riding from their films, such "the Art of Flight" into a terrain area for competition. Enjoy the video...

Travis Rice, not content with changing how we all film Action Sports and specifically Snowboarding, created the Red Bull Supernatural event.

It is going to be outrageous...
Snowboarding legend Travis Rice spent most of his past winters traveling around the globe in the search of the best natural features to perform his breathtaking snowboarding stunts, as one can witness in his latest movie The Art of Flight. For Red Bull Supernatural it was time to switch the strategy and all the preparation and work for this
unique snowboarding competition was done during the summer time. The outcome is an ultimate backcountry snowboarding course with more than 100 man-made features located at the Baldface Lodge, Nelson, BC. From February 3-8, 18 of the world’s best snowboarders will be able to ride this dream come true during Red Bull Supernatural…
