It turns out pro skiers don’t actually make any money… or at least the skiers that don’t compete and don’t have managers. Canadian skier Dana Flahr was put on the spot today by Stuart Varney of Fox News. I didn’t expect much from Dana but he surprised me and did alright with the old guy. It is hard to put into words why skiing pow and dropping cliffs is worth more than all of the money in the world. You gotta give it to TGR for pushing their athletes into so many different media avenues. Check out TGR’s 2010 film, “Light the Wick”. Some have said it is the Star Wars of our generation.

BEST MALE PERFORMANCE
The Winner:
Sage Cattabriga-Alosa
Under the Influence
Teton Gravity Research

In one of the closest contests of the 2009 Powder Video Awards, Sage Cattabriga-Alosa edged out Tanner Hall for Best Male. As one panel voter put it, “For doing what he does best, Sage out-shined everone.” Or, as another said, “If Sage doesn’t win, this thing is a joke.” Sage combined steep, technical, scary Alaska lines with deep Wyoming powder shots and spins and flips to put together a mind-blowing segment for TGR’s Under the Influence. This is Sage’s second Best Male Performance award. He also won in 2004 for his role in TGR’s The High Life, a year after winning Breakthrough Performer.

His name is synonymous with big, aggressive lines, insane airs, and style in spades. When it comes to making turns off piste, it’s an easy case to argue that Seth Morrison is the best in the business.

For the skeptic in you that needs a little more convincing though, we’ve got a clip of Seth’s segment in the new TGR flick, Under the Influence. You can download the video podcast here (iTunes Store Link) for free, so check it out.

They won’t make you ride like Seth, but chances are you’ll have more fun on his signature K2 ObSETHed Skis than you’re having right now.
