The Book of John J

Mental and physical strength are must-haves when living life as a 'beast', and growth only comes from pushing personal limits. John Jackson joins snowboarder and climber Lonnie Kauk on some backcountry shredding and free solo climbing missions.

Big mountain legend Jeremy Jones takes John Jackson on a split board tour of California's Sierra Nevada range, where any peak they want to shred must first be climbed. They discover the beauty of connecting with nature and truly earn every run.

There's a fine line between success and failure on a backcountry mission. John Jackson, Bjorn Leines and Grey McCalla have their sights set on some epic days in Jackson Hole valley, Wyoming, USA, but things don’t always work out according to plan.

It's first tracks with family as John and Eric Jackson head to Switzerland to visit their sister and her husband, snowboarder Frederik Kalbermatten. The siblings spend the trip shredding crazy good snow at Saas-Fee and making priceless memories.

Sometimes a shift in perspective is all one needs to get mentally revitalised. John and Eric Jackson head back to Canada to meet up with pro skier siblings Cal and Sean Pettit, who trade equipment with them for the day to get a new view of the snow.
