'LED Surfer' by Jacob Sutton is the one of the few sports-centered videos that will put you at ease and let you breath easy. This video features professional snowboarder William Hughes gracefully carving through pitch black and his suit being the only source of light.
The video was produced in slow motion making the carvings of Hughes seem mellow and almost god-like. There is also calming piano music playing, which only adds to the zen of the video. The shooting process took three freezing nights to capture, but the final product is magnificently worth it. It seems as if Hughes is a symbol of hope and peace carving through dark times.
