GoPro: The Fourth Phase with Travis Rice - Ep. 3 JAPAN: Peaks, Pillows & Pow

In this third episode, Travis and longtime partner-in-crime Mark Landvik push the boundaries of the Japanese Alps on huge pillow lines as they chase the notoriously deep powder of this supernatural country. Mark’s sense of humor shines brightly bringing out the lighter side of Travis - and unveils a friendship built on decades of missions in the backcountry.
Playful moments between Travis and Mark are juxtaposed with dicey terrain during their ongoing chase to find the perfect storm.
Stay tuned for the last and final episode, Ep. 4 ALASKA: The Reciprocal Loop, dropping on Tuesday, November 1.

About the series:
GoPro presents a four-part series - 'GoPro Perspectives: The Fourth Phase with Travis Rice' - which lends an intimate view of what it's like to be Travis Rice, as he drops in on some of the world's biggest lines during the filming of this multi-year production.
Tap into Travis' mindset, through the perspective of his helmet-mounted GoPro, to understand the skill and calculation essential to getting the shot and staying safe in the backcountry.
At its core, this series highlights some thrilling action from "The Fourth Phase," but also the deep bonds between Travis and his friends Eric Jackson, Mark Landvik, Bryan Iguchi, Victor de Le Rue, and more.
Each episode begins with a raw, personal and intimate moment from the mountain, that could only be captured with a GoPro camera. GoPro’s entertainment team searched through over two-years of the best GoPro content that was collected during this multi-year project with Red Bull Media House, to bring you this incredible story.

Gopro accidentally made this series so good it's actually better than the film itself...

[@Z0inks69]

Probably not the best place to say "Its nuking out" lol.

[@RedDuckTapeHD]

Logan Floyd hahahaha

[@video19981]

I laughed a little bit to hard at that

[@skyofstorms]

"If God didn't want us to snowboard there, he wouldn't have put them pillows there." -Travis Rice 2016 #BestQuoteEver

[@Anthony703]

In the last clip he was basically surfing a fucking avalanche

[@geoffreytaton7418]

Anthony Castellano đi4

[@meixingmichael2480]

Anthony Castellano true

[@mangomariel]

- happy music

[@JoelThorpe]

An incredible episode. The Japanese Alps are out of this world...

[@invest_with_etoro8205]

Joel Thorpe like the power of their minds

[@invest_with_etoro8205]

because

[@invest_with_etoro8205]

ANIME IS COOL

[@invest_with_etoro8205]

😎

[@jacobandrews2696]

I actually think I prefer these little snippets to the full movie. I dunno, these just have more character and charm I feel

[@nickcharlton9849]

Jacob Andrews I totally agree I liked these way more than the movie

[@EliteOpossum5]

Did he just surf an avalanche?

[@yasharmj1717]

EliteOpossum5 yes yes he did

[@donron3889]

He went out then back in and rode thru it

[@westonite210]

"It's nuking out" probably wasn't the best choice of words. 😂

[@TheRamos53]

he literally rode down an avalanche at the very end of the video, so core

[@TJinHakuba]

My home :) The line down to the road is mad. Never even considered it rideable. It isn't for us mere mortals.

[@torfinnweydahl5125]

My face when he dropped into the sluff at the end :O

[@HamSupZhai]

Isn't that an avalanche?

[@torfinnweydahl5125]

yeah might be

[@Kaiberus]

yeah its an avalanche

[@Kingsunmarquesi]

That last drop with the little avalanche behind is SO sick!!!

[@chriskiesler3582]

Such a sick little series!! I am still beyond pissed this wasn't in the bonus features of the dvd. Very annoying the fact that I bought the collectors edition Blu-ray, yet I still have to go to different platforms in addition to having the internet just to watch all of "The Fourth Phase" #lame

[@raya9726]

Chris Kiesler truuuuuu. in the same boat lol can't blame trice though GoPro just wanted to be stingy !

[@hopelessflex]

hate to say it, but these short features are so much better than the movie itself. This is the type of shots I was expecting from the movie.

[@wj6565]

I straight up binge watched these videos for like a year straight!!!!!

[@みーと-j6v]

ようこそ日本へ！ welcome to japan!

[@MjbBullHead69]

Sooooo wicked AWESOME… the POW is just unreal and definitely scary…. but these guys are Snow Monsters! Keep on riding. 🍻

[@erickim9936]

So far these series episodes seem better than the movie itself kind of like The Art of Flight: The Series where each location was broke down in more detail.

[@shdw_co]

Only a few more weeks till the season starts here, this has got me so pumped for getting those first tracks in waste deep pow

[@ids1562]

2:24 I expected 'Grand Cabin" to be a chopper lmao

[@bplnick3803]

same

[@chiquetcyril]

The freedom snowboarding can give!!

[@quandom2]

Why couldn't the Movie feel as chill as this?

[@85blueberry]

Wow that feeling at 8:23... SICK !! nice footage guys !! And the format of filming and episode's is very nice! thumps up and have fun! Cheers,, Arnold

[@mikediesel7125]

That butterfly is warming up in the sun from that snow front you all wr above. creatures are dope these vids are tight.

[@ykohara]

Don't snowboard on a public road especially there being a traffic. Please don't come, those who won't conform to the rules.

[@cookirox]

6 6 it’s actually Japanese law

[@HamishMcKinley]

Nah

[@DrinkElectrolytes]

Most people stop snowboarding when they see they've created an avalanche... Travis is just like "I'm just gonna ride the spine it's chill"... and then the side of the spine avalanches him into the main avalanche... and he's just like "no prob i'll just ride the avalanche it's chill"

[@ECCO___]

holy fucking shit my heart pumped like crazy during the last scene

[@PodoBjj]

I'm gonna be going down these hills within the next 10 years. I've been snowboarding for 8 years now and I'm pretty confident I'll be a backcountry pro soon enough:)

[@maritekpl]

How's it going with that?

[@PodoBjj]

I really haven’t improved much, can go down double blacks quite comfortably but haven’t really pushed myself to the next step, also haven’t been snowboarding in like 3 years unfortunately. I am booking a trip to killington for next year and will buy a seasons pass to my local hill this year. There’s also a indoor trampoline park where you strap a board and can learn tricks which I think will be useful… Travis rice is insane and I don’t think I realized how much work I really need to put in

[@RCmies]

Got our first snow here today :) Can't wait to go skiing

[@mortenlindberg9451]

I'm watching this on a rainy day in Norway, if the actual movie is better than these teasers I'm not sure i can handle it

[@now1176]

These guys are crazy... and amazing at the same time. Rock On. \m/.

[@01_BruteForce]

hahaha. Travis is insane!!! what a badass! how many avalanches do you think he has created?!

[@steflondon88]

They didn't show the best part where they are shredding through the powder at night , through trees and snow fall.

[@ben6507]

What's a glad crack? at 5:40 where he falls into the hole, is that what he's calling them? I know of tree wells but not whatever that was...

[@nomadtrails]

glide crack, google it. glide avalanches are very dangerous.

[@clementjoubert9750]

They don't use the karma grip but the gimbal by Feiyu tech ! you can see it at 6:25 !

[@SkillzorZ021]

This movie took four years to make, the karma was likely not even conceived when this part was filmed.

[@clementjoubert9750]

SlaveToTheBeard 4 years ???? Are u serious ?

[@SkillzorZ021]

Clement Joubert yep, they started filming after The Art of Flight came out, and that was at the end of 2011

[@rgrebby]

dude that last run...

[@piers927]

This is like po*rn for me cant wait to go skiing again :)

[@danilobakovic]

What's the Japan intro soundtrack? It's not Kishi Bashi - Intro to Japan. The song starts at 22:54 in the movie and get's cut a couple of times before it dissapears. Shazam and SoundHound are not working… It's a woman singing on some language I cannot pick up. Would really appreciate it if someone knew. Thanks!

[@hotdogtopdog]

Thought he was going to be in the midst of an avalanche at the end then!

[@DrinkElectrolytes]

He was, I cant believe he just road straight into that shit LOL. His board was totally under the stream of the avalanche you could tell he was submerged and just kept riding.

[@markydelci3986]

That last line, Oooo my Gurd!

[@holytacos601]

shits got me so hyped for the winter

[@nikolozrb8080]

Avalanche ride was so sick :)

[@idanlewenhoff2295]

Amazing series forth phase!!

[@TomomiNishikubo]

Where is Shin?

[@lalalaxixixi9502]

I can’t believe that’s Tsugaike!!

[@michaelmac4103]

Go pros steppin up awesome last few vids ! 😎

[@T25de]

Japan 🇯🇵 ❤️

[@ChrisProuse]

Loved it. Thanks for sharing :)

[@MrChriisOwnz]

This is soo sick cant wait to take my trip over there.

[@TheRedMenaceR]

Since this is shot entirely on gopro, does that mean your using the Karma gimbal grip?

[@JasonYapp]

CAMERA ONE!!! CAMERA TWO!! ONE!! TWO!! lol

[@994bob1]

yeah Travis, shout out to creatures 9:50

[@DrRemorse]

Sadly all those videos are not on the dvd ... sad

[@عليباسمفرحان-ص3ح]

I loved this one❤

[@charlesortiz5388]

Butterfly is like "no pal what are doing up here "

[@adriaanneelis6460]

Dang id love to be a redbull snowboarder ! But no mountains in the netherlands and im only 16.. Can't wait to grow up

[@willtowle8060]

Do another Chasing El Nino season!!!

[@OlisTravelsWorld]

INCREDIBLE!!!!!

[@HDscreenerX]

Gopro should invent some kind of snow fan to blow away the snow from the lens. In case like this some parts of the video is just wasted.

SO beautiful ! :D

[@AroraTv]

Great vid !!

[@robertfazekas4607]

This scene is not in the movie...... why???:-( but is so funny :-)

[@diegoseco]

i reallyt like this serie

[@ryanelliott6457]

That's it I'm asking my mum if I can go snowboard lessons

[@rylsparrow8511]

9:30 that part was really dangerous I think he just take a speed and moved really fast and avalanche.

[@JimmyCasino]

Did he say he was stuck in a "glad crack" What is the full name for this? How does it form?

[@asyrafframlel8082]

isnt that the dude from art of the flight movie?

[@Andrei-xi5tu]

Asyraff Ramlel no, this is patrick.

[@ArcticPride1]

Yes, Travis Rice

[@o-leg]

Can anyone give me any insight on that transition cut at 5:28, how can it be recreated? Thanks in advance!

[@CoreyCat4]

That's so cool!

[@thepilfside4486]

So jelly!

[@corsim8876]

magnifico

[@mr.komp1004]

Do anybody know where I can find another view, when he us surf an avalanche?

[@aminecheriti3582]

anybody has an idea if their gopro breaks after they use it without any case ?...

[@Kirious]

That avalanche at the end tho o.o

[@skysvlogs1344]

Pause at 6:28 and you will see the go Pro on the gimbal it says brain farm on the back for a second there I almost thought it wasn't even a GoPro

[@beginna]

reminds me of austrina alps.

[@twutle]

CAMERA 1! NO, CAMERA 2!

[@zerog91]

Riding an avalanche... WTF! So bad ass!

[@chrish4601]

Wicked movie

[@mikeschafer4440]

Wait.. so they hike all the way up..?

[@spoongood3937]

That what always happens when boarding to get the best pow when hiking 🤘

[@tommy4862]

Is this really shot in 24fps? Because it looks smoother.

[@funkylosik]

karma gimbal

[@tommy4862]

that makes it steady I get it but fps is something else

[@funkylosik]

yup, other than illusion of smoothness that can make fps feel different, still looks like 24fps to me)

[@clementjoubert9750]

No it's not the karma gibal it's the feiyu tech one ! look at 6:25 !

[@funkylosik]

Clement Joubert good catch. I was too lazy to find that moment and compare gimbals)) but I think anyway smoothness is only gimbal's merit

[@mathiasukkelberg7663]

Nice!

[@adastra1569]

Look. Эпизод с проездом по городу завалил всё дело. Разбери теперь где вы реально едете, а где монтаж. That's no good.

[@TedyWoo]

Bestial

[@millhouse313]

How do they know they aren’t gonna create an avalanche?

[@seanlee8016]

That avalanche was so sketchy 😳

[@Borjipius]

sick!

[@quent7561]

CAMERA ONNNNEEEEE

[@mp3remix171]

That... was but clenching :O

[@nateproulx8933]

no credit to the guides eh?

[@michaelmathews5243]

What is the song called around 2:30

[@KendallMartin]

Did he just willingly ride an avalanche?!

[@calebbetteridge6451]

ikr...at first like dang thats sick and then i saw the cracks in the powder and i was like oh hes so dead...lol

[@blanch888888]
