When Summer Turns Into Ski Season

What happens when winter doesn't deliver, but the urge to ski never disappears? David Meier and his crew came up with an answer: take freeride skiing into summer, mix it with mountain biking, add a few ambitious stunts and connect everything in one continuous run. The result is TWO FACED 2 – a project that takes the concept of action sports to a whole new level, backed once again by HEAD and a shared pursuit of limitless progression.

After the success of TWO FACED 1, the expectations for the next chapter were high. But there was one problem: winter wasn't exactly playing along. Instead of waiting for better conditions, David Meier and his crew decided to turn things upside down.

"After TWO FACED 1, we put our heads together and thought: why not just do it in summer? We wanted to mix skiing and mountain biking, two freeride sports that usually belong to completely different seasons, and combine them in a way nobody had really done before."

And that's exactly what TWO FACED 2 is about and what is in HEAD’s DNA – exploring the mountain with new levels of creativity.

The film follows one massive journey from sunrise to sunset, starting high up in the Arlberg mountains. From there, the crew travels across rivers, lakes, vast rock fields and forests, connecting some of the most spectacular locations in Austria and Switzerland. Along the way, the action gets increasingly creative: skiing through summer terrain, hitting a Bikepark jump alongside mountain bikers in a full train, crossing the beautiful Verzasca Valley in Switzerland and even taking on Lake Achensee.

But the journey doesn't stop with skiing. At some point, the skis are swapped for a mountain bike, opening up an entirely new chapter of stunts. David takes the bike on a luge track, sends it over a car and even launches it over a truck with a front flip. To finish things off, the final challenge takes place on Lake Constance, where David rides his mountain bike across the water.

One run. Two sports. Countless obstacles. From the first light of sunrise to the last moments of sunset.

More construction than filming

While the finished film might look like one seamless summer adventure, getting there was anything but easy. The production started in June and continued until October, leaving the crew with only around six months to plan, build, film and edit the entire project. Normally, a production of this scale would have almost twice as much time.

Finding the right locations was already a challenge. But the real work often started once the locations had been found. Skiing on summer terrain doesn't exactly come with perfectly shaped take-offs and landings. Every jump, transition and stunt required a lot of preparation, construction and creative problem-solving.

"In the end, we probably spent three times more time building things than actually filming. Making skiing possible in places where there normally isn't any snow takes a lot of work. But that's also what makes projects like this so special," says David.

The entire crew was involved, with friends taking on different roles throughout the production. From scouting and construction to filming, driving and making sure everything came together, it was a proper team effort.

A summer to remember

Despite the tight schedule, challenging logistics and plenty of unexpected obstacles, TWO FACED 2 became much more than just another action sports film. It took the crew to places they had never explored before, brought together two completely different sports and created opportunities for stunts that would be almost impossible during a regular winter season.

"Of course, it was hectic and there were moments when things got pretty complicated. But we had an incredible summer, travelled to amazing places and had so much fun making it happen. At the end of the day, that's what it's all about – doing crazy things with your friends and creating something you can all be proud of."

With TWO FACED 2, David Meier and his crew prove that freeride doesn't have to end when winter does. Sometimes, all it takes is a different perspective, a lot of hard work and a few friends who are crazy enough to make it happen.
