 I'm Todd Jones. My brother and I founded and run Teton Gravity Research and we're a media company. We do action sports entertainment. We had a fairly wild upbringing, you know, with the three brothers and it was always like just adventure and trying to, you know, create cool wild different stuff and always stayed really close with my brothers and, you know, fortunate enough to work with them all today. So this is a photo of my younger brother Jeremy Jones and myself in Stil, Vermont in the early days. Basically, my dad had gotten us these boards and we really liked it. We would ski all day and the mountain would close and then we would put on the headlamps and hike up behind our house, you know, just any little hill we could find and build kickers and stuff. And that's how in 1986 and 87, that's how we did it. You know, we were fortunate our friend Doug Coombs had opened the first like commercial heli ski guiding in Alaska and we were fortunate for him to take us under his wing and give us jobs. At the time, we couldn't really afford to pay for a bunch of helicopter time. We were just ski bones and dishwashers in Jackson Hole and we'd spend all of our money just doing our own personal runs and exploring the Chugach Range. And then we'd be out of money and we'd hitchhike to the nearest fishing port and hop on a boat and try and make some money and, you know, keep the whole dream rolling. You know, at that point we were kind of low-level pro skiers ourselves and no one was really capturing that Alaska movement that was really a big part of our whole DNA. Me and my brother and another guy all pulled in commercial fishing money and bought our first RFlex 16mm camera and said, screw it, let's make our own film. Those early days of hanging out the side of helis, I think, really taught me a lot. In aerial cinematography, for one, you have to see the vision of what you want to do because it's just moving space and then you have to communicate that to your pilot. The Continuum is really cool because it's our first film. So it was like, you know, super indicative of the time for us. It was 18 years ago and we didn't need a ton and we had this vision to make movies and make films and I was still skiing in front of the camera and me and my brother and our other partner were trading the camera back and forth. We just had this idea and vision and really wanted to set out and chase it down and go after it. It was a really special, special film for us. You know, playing with technology and watching the world evolve and change and kind of, you know, seeing what's relevant and how that can help us do what we do is really cool. I would say 18 years ago when we started TGR, we started rolling the cameras and really haven't put them down. We, you know, threw this thing out there not really knowing what it would do. The last eight years have been like the most dynamic, constantly changing, evolving times ever.
