A film by pro skier brothers Beau-James and Jackson Wells, Bracket Creepfeatures a creative bunch of freeskiers doing their thing in the resorts and backcountry near Wanaka, NZ.

Beau-James and Jackson prove to be as creative as film makers as they are as skiers, and this is a stylish production that has a grungy old-school feel.

The skiing, however, is contemporary freeskiing at its best, the crew hitting a mix of park jumps, hand-built booters and some sketchy spring lines where there seems to be more tussock that snow and no room for error.

Above all, the skiers in Bracket Creep are having fun and that is what freeskiing is all about.
