Kai Jones. Nick McNutt. Christina Lustenberger. Some of the biggest names in skiing are coming to TGR’s debut 2021 season film.

Teton Gravity Research’s stoke-inducing “Stoke the Fire” is just what we need to prepare for the epic winter season ahead. To get your fix ahead of the debut, peep the trailer above.

“The leaves are growing more golden, temperatures are cooling off, but one thing is rising — stoke for winter,” teased the announcement. With this film, and winter season, Teton Gravity Research is celebrating 26 years of adventure filmmaking.

“TGR’s Stoke the Fire explores our athletes’ evolution within skiing, and the pure joy that manifests from that process,” wrote TGR. “Stoke means different things to different people based on where they are in their evolution. For some it is about committing to a new world, a lifestyle, and the friendships that blossom from that commitment.”

But ultimately, in the words of TGR, “the pursuit is what stokes the fire.”

“Stoke the Fire” was filmed in Jackson Hole, British Columbia, Alaska, Montana, and Washington. And it’s got a laundry list of some of the biggest names in snowsports:
