The video was produced by Poor Boyz Productions, action sports specialists from Hermosa Beach, Calif., and released by Red Bull Media House. It has more than 20,000 views in four days.
The video appears to come from a film titled "Tracing Skylines," which follows six skiers on adventures around the world.
In Detroit, they skied some lesser-known venues as well.
According to the video's text, a skier named Karl Fostvedt was the lede crazy in Detroit.
Thanks to Motor City Muckraker for bringing this to Deadline Detroit's attention.
