Details: CHOICES is a documentary-style film produced by the High Fives Foundation highlighting safety education and the smart decisions any athlete can make to enjoy a lifetime of activities in the mountains and on the snow. This documentary is the fifth installment of the BASICS Program Service. BASICS is an acronym standing for Being Aware Safe In Critical Situations. Each year High Fives produces a film on a safety topic and tours the film with an educational presentation across the country for schools, ski clubs, and industry professionals. The goal is to instill safety as a priority when on the mountain.
Lake Tahoe action sports professional JT Holmes aided in the development of the program in 2011. “BASICS was created as a way to catch young mountain sports athletes before they crash and suffer a life-altering injury,” he said.
Interviews and Photo Ops: Media are invited to the event. Please make prior arrangements for interviews or photos with the High Fives Foundation, the filmmaker, or members of the cast (listed below). Contact // Luka@highfivesfoundation.com
