Hungerpain Productions
Highlighting the next generation of riders
What started as a project to elevate the profiles of some up and coming snowboarders in the UK, led to 3 full lengths films, movie premiers and even an air bnb house.
Hungerpain became a movement for up and coming snowboarders. My role in this was to pull together the key athletes, find the editor, effects person and of course source financing for the project along with then overseeing the whole project.

-Info:
‘Hungerpain’ grabbed the UK scene by the balls and gave them a hefty tug, shaking things up dramatically in the 2005/06 season. At the time, only one film production a year came out of the UK, and too much talent was being overlooked. Jon Weaver pulled together a crew of under exposed riders, called upon Damian and SS for filming and editing duties, and produced the first of three standout films under the ‘Hungerpain’ banner. A film driven by raw passion and the desire for progression in UK snowboarding.
