Turn of Mind | Patagonia

"Going up on a splitboard, slow by nature, you start to gaze around. With not much to do, your mind wanders freely.” Intrigued by a deep connection with nature, Patagonia ambassador Nicholas Wolken spent time in the Swiss mountains with his splitboard, good friends and an open mind. He shares his story in Patagonia's new film: Turn of Mind.

The camera guy on this is beyond good. Not only boarding the same mountain, but also filming and keeping them in frame!!! Awesome

Imagine a world where the intelligence of nature is honored.

"If I want to change, I need to look inside myself. To find that intimate connection we all share with this planet. This way doing the right thing becomes an act of compassion rather than a moral obligation." That quote hit me really hard, and just completed this amazing video perfectly.

One of the most spectacular pieces of art ive seen uploaded to youtube so far. Excellent edit.

Every time I watch this movie I can feel the emotions riding through my mind and body..it brings tears to my eyes because the message is so pure, so humble that only a person without any feelings can just dismiss it.

God has created a beautiful world for us to enjoy (and protect)

One of the most beautiful films I've experienced. Down at my soul level this is how i have felt. My late dear husband passed away in a storm, and knew this was climate change. Way too fast. My soul dream is film, ecology, psychology, dreamwork, helping people heal, mindfulness. 🙏🏿 How the soul heals. Thank you for sharing. Makes me cry. How we can heal ourselves, nature, animals, save the earth. So beautiful. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿❤❤❤

We need philosophy and science... some of the truest words ever spoken.

[pauloppenheimer]

This is unbelievably good. And exactly how I feel when I go touring to a hut in the mountains

[doomdani]

Absolutely wonderful ! A majority of the shots gave me goosebumps, combined with the narrative created a pure bond between people & nature. Stunning piece of film!

I need to get back on skis for the first time in 14 and half years I spent this last year off. I truly feel everything he says about the Mt.

[nedstudios]

This is a cinematographers dream. And with Patagonia? Come on. To have the opportunity to film a piece like this. Just a total dream.

[bugsarepeopletoox]

Amazing. So beautiful to see us evolving and understanding what is at stake.

[MorganKlasen]

Truly inspiring. This is what motivates me. Not only snowboard per se, but what surrounds us all at every time. To make these sort of experiences possible. It's a beautiful thing that shouldn't be overlooked. We all take part in making it possible.
