Just when we needed something to get us excited for ski season, the LINE Traveling Circus debuts a new season with a new episode. Thank you ski gods! We’re pretty confident that LTC is the longest-running series in freeski history, and we’re stoked to see it continue with a trip out east. In episode 17.1, we find Andy Parry, Will Wesson, Bennie Osnow, Mitchell Brower, Ian Compton, Shane McFalls and a gaggle of other friends trying new stunts on familiar turf in Vermont and New York.

Anyone who’s skied the east knows the weather is anything but certain. Here, we find a variety of conditions, from 35°F and sunny to 2°F and icy. Firm snow, greased-up rails, good jumps and soft slush, it’s all here. You’ll even find out about a brand-new trick called Tony. Tune in for 17 minutes of good ol’ ice coast fun that you won’t regret.

Season 17 kicks off with a trip back east to meet old friends and unstable weather. The crew laps the park at Sugarbush, the ice at Gore Mtn, the slush at Whiteface, and caps it off with a DIY session at Snow Ridge.

Wood enthusiast, Ian Compton shows us the sauna he built. Will gets sweaty. Andy loses his ferry ticket before boarding the boat. Powder-boy Mitchell learns how to ski the east coast “hardcore-real-stuff”. Tweak invites us to his family cabin the Adirondacks. Sawyer gets filmed. Shane laughs at Andy. Our old friend Nick now owns a ski area in New York, which has baby goats. Bennie goes big, AND goes home!
