- A Holocene Studios production.
Synopsis:
A decade after freeskiing became an Olympic discipline, many riders are longing for an alternative to the current trajectory of the sport. Instead of rigid contest structures and national teams, they dream of a new kind of freeski event, something more true to the sport’s unruly origins. And so, in the fall of 2022, an idea begins to take form…
THE LEAGUE is the untold story of how the Jib League came to be. It’s an intimate documentary following Ferdinand Dahl, James “Woodsy” Woods and Øystein Bråten on their path to creating one of the most instantly beloved events in freeskiing.
Enjoy this unfiltered, behind-the-scenes journey from frustration to inspiration, doubt to certainty and worry to jubilation as three friends strive to create something original, and to push the sport they love in a bold new direction.

best thing to happen to skiing since snow
and sliced bread
Maybe best thing since Steve stepp trollin
slvsh gotta be the most innovative group in freeski
actually think this is the best film ive ever watched, visually so sick
Thank you for the kind words 🙏🏻 Happy you liked it
Agree!
THIS is freestyle skiing. This is what the skiing community needed! Thank you!!!
one of if not the best ski movie i've ever seen, even beating candide's legendary few words
Rarely something so praised is not overhyped but this really is the best thing I’ve seen happen to skiing. I hope you can make the industry see the potential in this too because sadly that’s what really matters when it comes to making this the future of freeskiing.
No need to get the industry in the building. If he's been able to raise fund for this without selling his soul it's all right
@@samuelvandeberg9691 They can correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t believe they’re making considerable profit, if any, currently. And I don’t think they consider themselves a charity because they want to make this the future of freesking. That means making it big *in the industry*. Yeah, they’re gonna need big funding for that… Again, I might be wrong, but skiing isn’t exactly a growing industry, so to have a piece of it they have to grab it from the big boys.
James Woodys is the best thing to Happen to skiing. Thank you brotha
Wish this was more popular. Should be on national TV like major team sports in America.
Jib league to the world! Thank you everyone who is a part of this:)
Wow how refreshing. Intelligent storytelling in the snow sphere, really impeccable
bro that shit is so beautiful!!! Freeskiers taking back THEIR sport, their art. Don't need nobody else but the true passionnates. What I like the most is that it's the riders that are pushing the art to the next level that are judging each others, and really getting inspired by each others at the same time because the format is a jam. They are witnessing together each other finding a new way to make the sport progress. It really felt special watching this!! And the features are also created by them like the barrel thats crazy. Man this was really beautiful ! They bring back freesking to its essence thank you for doing that!
Thanks for bringing back freeskiing to how it should really be... Ferdi, Woodsy and Oyster to the moon
This is the best ski movie I’ve ever seen
Let the competitors decide who's best is literally the best route to progressing the sport. what a great idea, to any freestyle skier style and creativity is a lot more impressive than spin to win.......this kind of comp will actually progress the sport and encourage athletes to be creative instead of just focusing on rotations and flips. YOU GUYS RULE
Big ups Mathias!
Such a realistic perspective. This was the reason I stopped competitive freestyle skiing. It's literally the name of the sort, "freestyle". Everyone can be creative and can bring something new. Love this view!
Thank you Ferdinand, James, and Øystein. This is the best thing happening in Freeskiing. Keep on, keeping on.
Amazing progression in freeskiiing!!! Big probs to ferdi, woodsy and osteyn braten for creating that. My favorite part is seeing ALL the skiers helping together to create that landing in 33:00. Such an immaculate vibe. I could watch Hours of that league.
Preach brother, when i first saw jib league i new it was the new Xgames bringing creativity and exasperation back to skiing ❤
this, over any previously organized and televised events in freeskiing. Jib League is the new pinnacle
Ive done quite a few different sports in my life and got to met many kind people. But there isnt any thing in the world being comparable to the freestyle skiing community. I have been to the open jam Nordkette and i’m skiing park for just 2 seasons now, but seeing and being able to talk to all those athletes and just having the time of my life there was like one of the best days ever so far. Starting conversations with literal anyone in the lift or at the slope, hyping up each other to commit tricks and stuff was incredible. Thank you guys so much for putting that effort and love in this sport and community.
What a beautiful inspiring masterpiece! This is why freedom depends only on a couple of free minds realizing their dreams not giving a s***! No organizations, no institutions, no associations, no majorities, no politics needed! Thank you so much!
truly best thing to happen to skiing in a very long time. thank you to everybody who puts on for the culture
Best freeski film all last season!!
Best community in skiing right here
It's fantastic to see you guys appreciating the true essence of free-skiing. Your dedication to keeping the mindset and deep soul alive in these sport is both admirable and inspiring. Honistly, thanks for backflash and the pleasure that what we believed 24 years bevore with an event called sb-jam is still alive. NO-Judges, NO-rules, NO-norms. It's all about the communtiy, creativity, expression, progression and off course style.
Thanks guy - its soo good to see!
Ride on - and keep it dosen't matter what's next.
🙌🤟🤘✊
this is exactly what we need
This is sick! Lukas need to release that track. Amazing film!
The whole event idea was so exciting from the very beginning🔥! Congrats on making changes in our community🎉
The skiing, the filming, the music, the message. Everything is so on point👌🏻

Jib League to the world
This is some of the highest production filming I’ve seen in a damn long time. Not to mention it’s the best thing for skiing that’s happened in a long time. Keep up the work my dudes
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH !!!! Really motivates to move forward in learning freeski & taking part in many different competitions. Thank you so so much for creating Jib League
So beautiful! Great Work on the film & to the founders for bringing this event to life
the league skiers have been waiting for, and a perfect video to showcase it. Couldn't be more proud of all you guys and so so excited to see where this goes in the future. the most special stuff
Cant wait for season 2 now. Absolutely stoked!
This is absolutely amazing. I'm so glad to see a change from what we've been seeing in freestyle recently, and more importantly the fact it's open to anyone. Great job.
Sickest thing to watch! 🙏
This is so damn well done. Great job Jib League, Riders, Filmers, and Editors.
As an outsider looking in and as a former skater, ski is definitely where it's at. It was snowboarding back in the 00's and 10's that was the cool thing. Now it's skies, the tricks and steezy flow is way better. Imo.
So so sick. the idea, the execution, the skiing, the film.
dudes. Jib League is already my fav thing in skiing and now it has the film to match. Kudos to you all
Merci jib league
So hyped to see where this goes. Such a cool project. For skiers by skiers
The best thing put out in skiing. Thank you boys
This is the illest shit ever. Re writing the script. We should be proud as a sport
What a great concept to push freeskiing forward. This format and the energy the guys have put behind this league really gives me hope for a bright future in skiing ! Huge shout out to everyone involved in the film production too, what a beautiful piece ❤
Love to see freeskiing get creative and free again!! Sick concept and movie!
This is art gentlemen. F’ing ART
Quite possibly the best thing to ever happen to skiing and also possibly the best film I’ve ever watched. Phenomenal all around
33:30 this is one of my favorite shot sequences I’ve ever seen in a ski film. So beautiful, well done.
Thanks Christopher. Happy you liked it 🙏🏻
