Northern Idaho Photographer Doug Marshall made an appearance on the scene after having shot Giray and Rob in 2015 for their initial trip to whitewater and Schweitzer Mountain titled "Peregrine". The boys skied 30" of deep, coldsmoke in 0F conditions for 2 days and caught an epic evening sun window on the famous spined headwall at whitewater, allowing Giray and Max to ski a spine that Giray has been scoping for years. Persistence does not always ripen the fruits of reward, but the snow gods felt generous and showered down deep, unexpected snow for the crew.
With 1-3" of snow forecasted during the potential trip, the Daymaker crew decided to follow their destiny and drive through a snowstorm shutting down highways and turning their 14 hour drive into 36 hours of travel.
The winter of 2019 in Nelson, BC was one of their driest while the Utah homeland was seeing a winter of epic proportions. It was a trip that weighed heavily on their minds whether or not to go.

#GIRAY DADALI SERIES#
Hassan Mackey & Apollo Brown "Dollar Bill Hill"Įpisode 01 of Daymaker Touring's skiing series " You Can Tour With Us". We call this one Reset Repeat for the Sun-Snow cycles that repetitively struck Utah this winter allowing for perfect filming conditions after storms with the patented "Alta Magic" light conditions in the storm. Other skiers include Berkley Stone, Calvin Hawley, Ahmet Dadali, and an out of this world segment from the space man himself, Sully Tesch. Daymakers was graced with rider Mitchell Brower sprinkling his clean style and renowned backcountry follow cam shots, as well as J.M. Reset Repeat is filmed mostly in Little Cottonwood Canyon and Logan Utah featuring the usuals of Giray Dadali, Max Meza, and filmer Alex Mager even dropping a big ol double B in there. You can pivot on a dime, and never have to worry again about catching your tips when popping from forward to backwards, buttering, or throwing tricks… even in fresh snow.All skiers on deck, this finale of the 18/19 season for Daymaker Touring pulls in our largest fleet of skiers in the place we call home. I designed the tips with a very smooth rocker and a unique early tapper geometry for a catch-free, effortless, surfy feel. The added surface area under foot makes for stable landings and provides even more balance and control when buttering and sliding rails. Its 104mm waist is super versatile, it floats easily in powder, yet is quick enough to also shred all over the mountain, including the park. This enables it to match transitions and excel at a larger variety of freestyle terrain so you can throw down with more style and control, without getting bucked. “The Vacation” is the ultimate getaway from traditional boring skis! It features a truly one-of-a-kind, soft flex pattern that’s equally distributed throughout the length of the ski.
