After an unforgettable world premiere at Snowbasin Resort, Will Ski 4 Food is hitting the road, and Salt Lake City is our first stop!

Join us for a special screening of Will Ski 4 Food, a documentary celebrating the wild beginnings of freestyle skiing, the larger-than-life personalities who helped revolutionize the sport, and one man’s decision to chase a dream instead of a paycheck.

In 1973, Gary Nate walked away from a conventional career to pursue his passion for skiing and filmmaking. What followed was an incredible journey through the early days of freestyle skiing, the legendary characters who shaped the sport, and a career behind the camera capturing some of skiing’s most unforgettable moments.

Told through rare archival footage, vintage photographs, and firsthand stories from the pioneers themselves, Will Ski 4 Food is more than a ski movie. It’s a story about friendship, family, taking chances, and having the courage to follow your passion.

More Than Just a Movie

We’re planning a special evening to celebrate the film and the people who made this story possible. We’re working on bringing together some familiar faces from the film, a conversation with the filmmakers, and potentially some live music to make the night even more memorable.

Additional event details and special guests will be announced as plans come together.

Whether you grew up skiing Utah’s mountains, remember the glory days of freestyle, or simply love a great story about chasing a dream, we hope you’ll join us.

The adventure didn’t end at Snowbasin. It’s just getting started.
