With nearly 30 ski films and videos released in 2006, deciding this year’s coveted Powder Video Awards (PVAs) nominees was tougher than ever. But after pouring through hours of footage and consulting a panel of industry experts, Powder Magazine is proud to announce the official nominees for the 2007 PVAs presented by Jeep.

Returning to Aspen, Colorado, for the fourth year, the 2007 PVA’s will feature 12 different video award categories, including Best Line, Best Male and Female Performance and Best Powder. The show, which is attended by more than one thousand athletes, media, spectators and the biggest names in skiing, will also feature the Photo of the Year award, and Powder Reader Poll winners, decided by online voting at Powder.com. Past Poll award winners include iconic professional skiers Seth Morrison, Shane McConkey, Ingrid Backstrom and Sarah Burke.

"With the ski film industry continuing to explode, this show gains significance and momentum each year," said Powder Senior Editor Derek Taylor. "This year promises to be the biggest yet for the PVAs, including our first-ever live webcast on PowderAwards.com.”
