This episode from the fourth season of the Emmy-nominated PBS TV series features host Peter Whittaker and devoted snowboarder Allen Murphy in a show dedicated to "shredding" the slopes of Utah's Wasatch Range. Instruction covers the gear needed, basic techniques, and training procedures for this easy-to-learn sport. Whittaker also goes over avalanche awareness techniques. Highlights include the two men locating fresh powder on which they set out to "peak the stall" (defy gravity). ~ Steve Blackburn, Rovi
