Remember Ian McIntosh? No? Then check out our "Big, fast, straight, must-stick" clip from earlier this year to see how he made his name in ski-films - straight-lining a*se-tight couloirs in Jackson Hole a couple of years back.

He's been busy since then - and has a starring role in the latest Warren Miller movie, skiing Whistler, British Columbia, in this eye-popping clip.

Warren Miller films are the grand-daddies of the ski-movie scene - this is the 58th - and attract an audience of 300,000 every season in the USA. The film from which this clip is taken, "Playground", is now touring the UK, playing in a range of cinemas from Aberdeen to Southampton. If you want to see more, check out the movie's website for dates.
