Tom Wallisch Pays Homage to JP Auclair with his Newest Short Film from The North Face.
Remember JP Auclair’s segment from All.I.Can? It featured the legend himself ripping through the snowy streets of Nelson, BC, jibbing whatever feature crossed his path. Well, Tom Wallisch and Sherpas linked up to recreate and expand upon that famous segment with their newest joint, “Imagination.” Check it out below:
The edit itself takes the classic childhood daydreams, when you imagine what it would be like if you could shred any feature in the cities around you. Sherpa’s Cinema came in and took on the camera work, tracking Wallisch as he rolled together a heavy line of jibs, an absurd switch rodeo off a dumptruck, and even the classic JP Auclair Backflip Mute.
An edit like this is no small feat; tapping just about everyone from the local community, Sherpas pieced together an edit that not only pays tribute to the man that shaped our sport, but it also helps us remember why exactly we got into skiing in the first place.
Oh, and you get a glimpse of the rad Tom Wallisch Pro in it’s natural element. Learn more about the ski HERE. And read more about the trip on Sherpa Cinema’s Blog HERE.
