What do you do when plans for a B.C. pow trip fall through and you’re stuck in California? Remind yourself that California is still super rad and go camping in the Sierra Nevada range, as shown by Chris Benchetler , Scotty Smith and Bryan Fox in episode 3 of “Chasing El Niño.”
Titled “The Meltdown,” this episode is far different from number one and two; instead of ripping deep snow and big lines, the crew scales things down with laid-back features—some hand-built and some natural—within close proximity to their sun-bathed campsite. Smith—a snowmobiling madman—steps up and hits everything on his sled, adding some variety to the episode that’s a whole lot of fun to watch. Not to mention, Fox is one hell of a snowboarder, completing a perfect trifecta of snow sports fun.
This is one of the most light-hearted, well-filmed web series we’ve seen as of late, and we’re already antsy for the final episode, which comes out later this month.
