                               Interview With Rob Alford
 

Where did you grow up?
 Qualicum Beach, Vancouver Island.
 
You lived in Whistler before Revelstoke; what area do you prefer for sledding and why?
 Both Whistler and Revelstoke have good points to them. Whistler has easier access to the goods but not as good snow.
 
Out of all the areas you have sledded whats your favorite place?
 I have a new area in Revelstoke that is my favorite so far.  It is right by Zipper Mouth Creek.
 
What is Mt. Mackenzie Log Chalet?
 It is a  deluxe bed and breakfast log home in Revelstoke which is covered in fresh pow right now. Check out www.logchalet.com  for more details.
 
I hear you commercial fish.  What is that like?
 It pays the bills and it has some challenges that keeps it interesting.

What type of sledding impresses you most?
 Well I am really impressed with the crazy airs those guys in Alaska are doing these days, and of course the big mountain pow riding.
 
Besides sledding what other activities keep you busy?
 I do a lot of downhill biking, dirtbiking and some surfing.
 
What are your plans for this winter? 
 Send some airs and rip some pow!
 
Any sponsors or thanks you want to send out?
 Blue Marble Oil, Fly Racing, Bull Dog truck Decks, A@E Motorsports and The Sled Shed.

Hits, whips and clips are what this film is about. For the 9th year in a row Frontier Films releases another incredible sledding film. Innovation is the force behind this film. From long distance jumps to a new variation of the backflip this film packs it all in. It also showcases shots from the backcountry Redbull Fuel and Fury contest in Alaska where the best sledders in the world showed up to give it their all.
