Helly Hansen

Stroke of Fire explores athletes' full and limited evolution within skiing and the pure joy that manifests from that process. The choice to enter this world is a spark, and with every new experience, the fire grows. With more knowledge comes more exploration, both physically and geographically, which helps to understand what those raw experiences connected with nature do for the soul.

Produced and director by Gary Winberg and edited by Kris Ostness.

This video project was every waking moment of my 2004 summer. Happy Happy was the second film I produced and directed for Helly Hansen. Still one of my favorite projects over the course of my career. Once again Kris Ostness was the editor. This was on a free DVD inserted in ski and snowboard magazines around the world and offered for free on the HH website. Good times.
