Alongside his friends at Dakine, Chris Benchetler has created yet another masterpiece. His latest short film, “Unraveling,” documents him as an artist, father, skier and overall lover of experiences. His progression in each individual field is remarkable, but as he has always done, Benchetler inspiringly stamps his own individual mark on each aspect. From his unique murals and art to his patented silky smooth style of skiing, and even showing his young one how to spin a 3, Chris Benchetler showcases his love for progression in every way possible. After all, progression is what keeps us as skiers coming back, chasing that feeling of doing something tomorrow that felt all but impossible today. How will you progress today?
