Hunter Hess SuperUnknown XV Finalist

A lot has changed since we kicked off SuperUnknown back in 2003. Skiing has come a long way- style and technicality has changed, developed, and progressed so far beyond what we could have imagined and commonplace tricks of 2018 hadn’t even been thought of. The landscape of competition, the internet, and video parts is barely recognizable compared to what it once was- but the one constant is that there’s always a crop of talented amateurs around the globe poised for a breakout, and they’re able to use SuperUnknown to take that next step! We’re excited to announce this year’s crop of Finalists who will join us at Winter Park Resort at the end of April. After a week of shredding and shooting, they’ll cast their votes for the winner of the 15th annual SuperUnknown!

Mitchell Brower Superunknown XI Finalist

In what is undoubtedly the heaviest year Superunknown has seen yet, we?re stoked to announce the 9 Finalists! Once again with over 100 entries pouring in from around the globe, selecting Finalists was no small task, and we?ve spent the past 6 weeks watching, re-watching, and watching them again and again to determine who we think stood out the most. We?ll also be awarding one Wildcard Finalist spot to the winner of the fan poll, chosen by you from our 16 Semi-Finalists: apps.facebook.com/my-polls/superunknownxiwildcard Stay tuned- we?ll be releasing two Finalists each day through Thursday, then releasing the 9th official Finalist and announcing the winner of the fan poll Wild Card spot on Friday, March 28th.

We've said it before, and we'll say it again- it's NOT getting any easier to chose our Finalists, and the line between these entries and our Semi-Finalists is a thin one, to say the least. However, after weeks of reviewing them all, watching them dozens of times over and over, and polling a panel of our athletes, crew, and people throughout the ski industry whose opinions we respect the most, these 9 entrants rose to the top, based on their style, creativity, skill, and the long term potential that we feel they have.

Presented by Outdoor Tech, Anon, Sony Action Cam and Newschoolers.com If there?s anything that we can say for certain after spending the past three weeks reviewing this year?s Superunknown entries, its that the talent pool has never been deeper, and there?s more variation in style, influence, and inspiration than ever before. Superunknown XII drew in nearly 100 entries from around the globe- some were all street, others all park. some all pow and big mountain, and others a mix of everything. Figuring out how to compare and judge one against the next was a huge challenge, and while we can?t say that we have the perfect formula, after spending countless hours consulting with athletes, media, and the Level 1 staff and rewetting most of these entries more times than we can count we have a list of 17 Semi-Finalits, and 9 Finalists that we stand behind. We?ll be dropping Semi-Finalist all week long, starting with four today. On Friday afternoon we?ll kick off the fan poll for you all to choose the 10th spot in Finals, so watch closely, spread the word, and help us figure out who should join the other Finalists in April for a shot at taking home the title!

Wells Lamont 2018 Team Edit

Shop for the new line of Wells Lamont snow gloves and mitts exclusively at WellsLamont.level1.ski Wells Lamont came out swinging this past year by putting together one of the heaviest and most well rounded teams of any accessory brand in snow sports, with Tanner Rainville, Will Berman, Keegan Kilbride, Duncan Adams, Sean Jordan, and rookie Remco Kayser. "I was fortunate enough to be able to put a team together of people that see skiing the same way I do,” added Team Manager Will Berman. "Not only are we all friends but we share the same passion and perspective on skiing and style- sharing that common outlook is what really brings this team together." The 111-year-old brand has been producing the toughest work gloves in the business, and the transition into a winter sports line was natural- they’ve taken a century of design, manufacturing, technology and materials knowledge and translated it into the best and most affordable ski and snow gloves and mitts you’ll find anywhere.
