Manuel Díaz, Sebastián Camus and Martín Parada bring different lines and movements to this Chilean Andes sequence. The clip comes from Funner Filete: From Baker to Chile and is shared through Funner Projects.

A Chilean excerpt from a wider snowboard film

A film travelling between Baker and Chile spans more than one mountain environment and seasonal context. The excerpt shown here should not be treated as a complete account of the whole production.

Professor Kliq's soundtrack connects the shots

Professor Kliq's Elephantitis, credited from the album Guns Blazin, gives the sequence a musical thread. Listen for how the rhythm meets the movement of a rider or a cut between views. Sound can make separate shots feel connected even when the terrain and camera position change. The track is part of the film's identity, alongside the riders and the Chilean setting.

Read the rider against the Andean terrain

The wide Andean face in the accompanying image puts a snowboarder beside steep rock, giving the eye a useful reference for scale. A turn is a small event within that large setting, yet it can become the centre of the photograph. Compare that relationship with closer views in the footage, where body position and the immediate snow surface occupy more of the frame.

The Funner Filete production behind the excerpt

Funner Filete: From Baker to Chile is the larger production behind this excerpt, so the short clip offers a selected Chilean section rather than a summary of every location or day involved. Its credits—Manuel Díaz, Sebastián Camus, Martín Parada and Funner Projects—help keep it traceable when viewed on its own. Enjoy the riding and the edit as a record of the conditions captured then, with a separate check of local information if the scenery inspires a future trip.
