"Ryan Nelson has made his mark as one of the best deep powder riders in the snowmobile industry. His segments in Boondockers and Elevation films showcase an incredibly fluid riding style in some of the most epic conditions ever caught on film. Watching Ryan ride is truly beautiful, his incredible blend of rythm and grace etch the untouched snow like a painter's strokes.
Obviously a skier in his early days, Ryan rides with his toes and rarely makes mistakes. It doesn't hurt that he lives along the Wasatch Front in Utah, just minutes away from some of the greatest snow on earth. While powder is his specialty, he is no stranger to big drops and jumps." -Sledheads

What do you do when the world economy crashes? Go snowmobiling! That’s exactly what the Boondockers team did last winter. In the fall of 2008, banks collapsed and panic ran wild through the media and financial markets, but we were more concerned with getting in our overtime so that we would be ready when the first big snowfall hit. Tougher times made us realize just how much we took sledding for granted in the past and once the snow fell we rode every day like it might be our last. We never missed an opportunity to explore new locations, ride deep powder, or go bigger than ever and the cameras were there to capture it all in 1080 HD.
Boondockers 6 tells the story of an incredible winter through the eyes of a dedicated group of riders who share a common passion for the steep and deep. From ridiculous jumps and drops, to adrenaline-pumping climbs and over-the-head powder lines that give new meaning to the phrase “heaven on Earth,” this season no one held back and the bar was raised with every ride.
