When Celtek founders Bjorn and Erik Leines decided to make a snowboard movie they wanted to do something different.
Instead of rider parts you’ll uncover what riding is like in two distinctive locations; Minnesota / The Midwest and UT / The Rocky Mountains. Nothing to Prove will show you what it’s like to ride with your friends and support them whether they are doing a mellow powder turn or airing over a 5 story roof-to-roof gap. Hi-Fives, hangouts, hospital visits and sessions all have one thing in common..community. It was only natural that Erik and Bjorn called on the CELTEK team to ride with and be featured throughout this movie.
The movie will be released online in pieces during September, but will also be on tour compete. For all the details, follow the jump.San Clemente, CA (September 4, 2014) – Brother’s Erik and Bjorn Leines started a production company in efforts to create a new multi-year content platform for up-coming riders and existing pro’s alike. Nothing To Prove is their first movie, which captures the CELTEK team and their friends snowboarding in a creative, authentic way that will make you understand the passion behind the people.
The movie showcases the camaraderie of the year in two locations rather than individual rider parts. The locations featured are the epicenters of snowboarding: The Midwest, USA and Salt Lake City, UT.
