The Inertia

It goes without saying, but becoming a parent is an existential paradigm shift. Suddenly life’s big decisions have new meaning. And the motivation to be the best version of yourself, at least in part, stems from the understanding that you’re now an example to a tiny human, and how they should live.

Backcountry aficionado Jake Blauvelt is settling into that reality at his home in Vermont, while still taking time to conquer big mountain lines out West. Make no mistake: parenthood hasn’t slowed the guy down one iota, and his new flick “Full Circle” is living proof. It’s high fidelity, high octane freestyle backcountry riding at its finest – with lessons about being a good parent sprinkled in.
