The Documentary 2014 Rookie Trip to Chile is online!

The Black Yeti is used to travel all around the world scounting for the best riders and, at the end of 2014 season, some of them were invited to join a special Freeride & Video Trip to Chile. The Black Yeti and friends have already travelled down to Chile many times and for many reasons: to enjoy the beautiful backcountry around Valle Nevado, to go skateboarding in concrete skatepark in the capital city of “Santiago de Chile“, to go surfing in Pichilemu and to discover some of the most famous cultural places of Chile such as Valparaiso.

Also this year the crew took part in the 2014 South America Rookie Fest. The video documentary from the “2014 Rookie Trip to Chile” is now online and will show our passion not only for snowboarding, but also for travelling, for nature and for the lifestyle behind boardsports such as skateboard and surf.
