DPS Skis Hits Hokkaido for "The Shadow Campaign"
DPS hits the Hokkaido backcountry.
After a huge snowstorm hit Hokkaido, DPS figured there was nothing better to do than to hit the mountainous backcountry of the Japanese island. Directed and edited by Ben Sturgulewski and shot in conjunction with GORE-TEX and Outdoor Research, the resulting first two parts of this season’s “The Shadow Campaign” feature the likes of Stephan Drake, Piers Solomon and Santiago Guzman. Sit back, enjoy the Alex Ebert, Sylvan Esso, and Marmoset tunes and watch the trio of skiers do their thing in all their slow-mo, snow-covered glory. Or, as DPS puts it, “put the needle on the record, sit down by the fire, have a drink, and take shelter from the storm. There is no warmth like the warmth felt in winter.”
