Wavy 2 The Journey to the End of the World | Nikolai Schirmer and Celeste Pomerantz

watch Niko Schirmer and Celeste Pomerantz sail to the northern Norwegian island and ski arctic conditions in a one-of-a-kind movie
Wavy 2 is out! Let’s sail to Svalbard.
Niko Schirmer swore he would never get on this boat again, but his new movie is all about Sofie (that’s the ship’s nickname) and a sailing voyage to Svalbard. Get on board and discover what happened in a trip full of adventure, wild animals, human interactions, and gnarly couloirs.

46:53 and that kids, is how I met your mother😆. Seriously though another great film Niko (et all)! Celeste's experience tells a story we can all relate to

[@shamatitou]

47:03 maybe even more :)

[@eaglesfannnn]

Haha yeah, I saw that. They were running on fumes there.

[@laurikultima8758]

@@shamatitou is niko not with sigrid anymore

[@connorbroughton1302]

@@laurikultima8758 No, they broke up about 8 months ago.

[@wasterofthebrainpower]

I feel like this film was about Celeste more than about anything else :) She is an awesome and a badass skier, and she totally deserves the credit! And I also think Nikolai did a great job mentoring her into this line of work that he is doing. Hope to see more of her skiing in years to come!

[@stephenclark15]

No offense but I feel like she's blinded by getting clips and putting everyone else in danger. So eager to get shots, that she sacrificed safety and good decisions. Not to mention she fell on an exposed couloir with rocks everywhere and days away from the closest help. These types of people put everyone in danger.

[@stephenclark15]

with that being said I think she's a good skier but maybe she needs to think more about the consequences of an accident happening, and not acting like they are at a ski resort.

[@wasterofthebrainpower]

@@stephenclark15 all true. It only shows how little real experience she has. Nikolai spoke a lot of his own mistakes himself, and she will learn too ;)

[@kivvm]

@@stephenclark15 Im not quite sure what you mean by this. They all put them self in danger. That's the kick of it. Even Nikolai sais it, that he knows he can die. With that thinking it was nikolai that put her in danger. I might miss your point tho, but as a snowboarder i love the kicks. I want to enjoy life. Die you can do to whatever. Me and my dad was skiing and boarding all kind of thinks. My mom lived healthy and carefully. She still died early due to disease. I dont see how them teaching celeste makes her put them in more danger then they allready signed up for.

[@Lipsymipsytipsy]

Wavy 1 was so incredibly cool... Im so thankful a company like Black Crows saw its beauty and decided to sponsor this! Well done black crow, marketing done right!

[@Nikolai_Schirmer]

I’m pretty grateful for black crows too🙏

[@jeremyhyland5562]

47:03 If they end up together than this shot will become this quintessence of life for these two.

[@martinkristiansen7937]

I had a crappy day until i saw this

[@DiabloDiam77]

Celeste's eyes at 47:00 means everything

[@tab0040]

they're meant to be together

[@DD4CC]

That was exactly my thought! That look says it all

[@Lipsymipsytipsy]

Thats the look of a girl with a crush haha

[@jhana9220]

Ha, When I watched it and go that part she made me smile so hard. Definitely saw the eyes of someone who is crushing hard.

[@jacksisson4325]

Quality like always from Nikolai 👍

[@user-cp3pl5kw8c]

well thanks, now I have a crush on Celeste Pomerantz 🙄

[@jazzman_10]

Get in line buddy 😂😂

[@gabrielpaster]

Not alone there buddy

[@gabrielpaster]

😂

[@Zaximax7]

❤

[@kevinkeran695]

Totally

[@murphychris314]

I love that Celeste is the craziest of all of them. More Celeste skiing plz!

[@PhilippKlein]

Been waiting for this one for months and it certainly delivered! Also kind of representative of current situation in Europe with lack of snow, got me pumped for some rock-evading skiing :)

[@SEVENROCK100]

Second chances are the best! Celeste, you are a badass skier!

[@sarahlee8838]

Yeah! ❤😂she made me cry

[@taterainey3749]

The fact that she went back to do it again is so powerful. And the support that everyone has for each other is honestly so powerful. Love what these people are making in terms of videos. This is exactly what i wanna do when i grow up

[@LeMontrealais]

This was amazing to watch. Nikolai's personality shines through as usual with the epic skiing and sceneries. Love the great editing with Nikolai's thoughts of the journey a perfect complement to it all. The beautiful music really hits the emotions of the moment.

[@k.n.v.b1113]

celeste thanks for representing Canada so well in this vid

[@bjorns8874]

This is a new level of making ski movies I would say 🙏

[@WaechterDerNacht]

I saw it at EOFT and immediately was like: there is so much missing - you guys story telling usually is so much better! So was very happy to watch it again in full length with proper story telling! Svalbard is very high on the list for me since a long time, but haven't managed to go there yet. But definitely need to do that as soon as the budget allows...

[@Alastair_]

And I think I speak for all of us when I say, if you and Celeste don't make adorable ski grom babies, we riot.

[@professortoasty90]

Is it just me, or do some clips look like they were encoded with a bitrate that is waaaaay too low? Otherwise, amazing film!

[@simon.annies]

yeah something went wrong there. Maybe youtube compression.

[@MarkusFinholt]

@@simon.annies This is not normal youtube compression. This was done in the NLE. Should probably reupload it.

[@TorinBarnesYT]

Yeah i thought KZbin was automatically downgrading my res to 360p or something... definitely needs a re-upload. Great story and the visuals would be incredible without distracting blockiness

[@professortoasty90]

Yeah, doesnt look like a KZbin issue, as most parts of the video are fine and raising the resolution (which also raises the Bitrate) does not help. Probably an error during the encoding.

[@Nikolai_Schirmer]

That would be all my fault😅 do you have the timecodes?

[@andrei_tapus6690]

So sick! You guys are killing it! This film felt like so much more than just skiing! When does Wavy 3 come out?!??!?!? Please :)

[@Zirmbergalm_Ruhpolding]

Maybe a little love story starting here? ;-)

[@cfedley3393]

Perfection. This film rules. Huge respect. And Celeste especially rules.

[@crephcrafterlp4899]

As a sailor I really appreciate Matses focus on safety, great film!

[@hansmaxx2215]

fav ski movie! good job black crows and Nikolai!

[@Sebastian-ur8sq]

I saw the EOFT Edit a few days ago and i think the shortened version really does not do it justice. This is such a great film!

[@prtsp7843]

These documentaries nikolai makes are the best thing ever, I got goosebumps of those views and stories

[@BenjaminLothe]

Amazing movie.. Niko never disappoints 😎 Celeste you rock 🤙🏼

[@cfsc7496]

Nikolai, you did it again. Together with the rest, but amazing narration and narrative.

[@Nikolai_Schirmer]

Thank you!

[@juliettewillmann]

Great movie guys ! :) :)

[@guppykang]

niko big crushing on celeste

[@explorerryan]

You all should come to Canada's west coast to explore some seriously epic terrain. Hotsprings, big lines, and so much more.

[@jody2873]

These vidoes are simply exceptional👍

[@slimigan]

Just find someone to ski with that looks at you like this at 47:00

[@IdRatherBeHiking]

Niko you've got some guts running across that ice! Wavy 2 delivered, on to Wavy 3!

[@MaicPiani]

Fantastic video! Makes me want to start skiing again AND learning sailing AND moving back to Scandinavia :D Celeste is great! Niko should plan a visit to Canada for a ski trip with her :)

[@sarahlee8838]

Emotions of her second chance❤

[@MsCindyBlack]

Just want to say I watch a LOT of ski films (as many as my heart can take); but this one, especially, was just SO REAL and true to life! Not just run after mind-boggling run, but all the other goofy, slightly disorganized stuff that goes with a real adventure like that. This is the way my friends and I would be. So I didn't feel like just a freaked-out observer but actually like I was there too. F**kin'-A!

[@alexmoore4278]

joonas is the GOAT !!

[@benlltt]

Nikolai has now made two of my all time favorite videos on KZbin, “I realized the way to live life” and now this one

[@markblythe7693]

Nicolai and team, great to meet you in Ny Alesund last summer and teach you some old sea shanties. I think I heard you sing "bound for South Australia at you reached the top the final couloir! Glad to see you got up the mountain after we left as Sophie was super quiet when we sailed off to find the bears! The snow was great, even if it was a bit of an expedition to find it! Loving the videos - keep them coming.

[@xXSkLzPrOXx]

Niko you are such a legend you inspire me so much and have helped me rekindle my lost passion for film and video production.

[@bmotivatedofficial1]

ive been waiting for this to come out on KZbin and boy it was incredible, Great job Nikolai and everyone in this film loved it!!

[@dtdaun]

Remember the old days when as a snowboarder I felt obliged to hate on skiers when we’re all just on the same team. Anyone feeling any sense of hate, just watch Nikolai enjoy his passion. Maybe time to find a crew here in Norway to find some good lines with.

[@GeorgeAtanassov]

Thank you for making these. Thank you for sharing the process and the thoughts behind... they are as valuable as the skiing you gang do! You are all wonderful. You all complete each other... much love!

[@Bigmountain73]

So stoked on this!! Your tribe that you surround yourself with are gold. I wish everyone who watches this to have a tribe as cool. The story, filming and skiing makes me want to step up my own adventures. Thank you for sharing this!

[@SamuraiJr]

Finally it's been released, waited since the first time you talked about it. The thing I was most excited for in 2022, thanks for your excellent work Nikolai 🤩

[@Lucas-lz3cq]

I love the first two songs from Dina Ogon!

[@Nikolai_Schirmer]

Me too! The whole album is good actually. Would recommend

Better than cinema, change my mind

amazing video, thanks for the great skiing and great wisdom niko!

[@WujekBocian]

Great movie, exceptional places...I've never been to Svalbard while I had a chance for some sail and ski around Lyngen...and yes this is it. This year we also plan to visit Tromso - there is something in the Arctic - it is addictive. Regards from Poland!

[@Molley113]

I would like to give hundreds of thumbs up to this movie! It's really touching smth inner in me

Such an epic adventure with such a beautiful story. Well done!

The classic Svalbard rocks;) Even when the wind has not blown the snow away yet they leave some souvenirs on your skis. But the views, ptarmigans and reindeer on Svalbard are the best :DD
