The '06-07 ski season unfiltered — concrete landings, broken dreams, and the sickest triple kinks you'll ever see.
Six months of skiing action. Lots of snow. Weeks of rain. Sun. Clouds. Fog. Blue Skies. Unforgiving concrete. Untracked landings. Low Pressure. High fives. Triple kinks. Double grabs. Too much speed. Not enough gas. Underrotated. Overtweaked. A chronological portrayal of the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of the ’06-’07 exactly as it happened. Level 1 brings you, ‘REALTIME.’ Directed by award-winning filmmaker Josh Berman and shot in HD across the globe, Realtime captures the season as it unfolds for a crew of the biggest names and best up and coming talent in skiing.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was peak 'newschool' skiing — baggy pants, tall tees, and the last gasp of ski culture before GoPro made everyone their own filmmaker.
Josh Berman shot this across multiple continents while essentially living out of a van with athletes who were sometimes competing, sometimes injured, always chaotic. The 'real-time' structure wasn't just artistic — it was logistical survival.
