Music video and snowboarding contest

The music video for "Falling Away" features top snowboarders Andreas Wiig (Two-time Gold Medalist 07’ X Games, Honda Vail Session 07 champion, Snowboarder Magazine Jumper of the Year), Hana Beaman (U.S. Open Champion, X Games Silver Medalist, Transworld Magazine Female Rider of the Year) and Mike Casanova (Vans Cup Rail Jam Champion), JJ Johnson and Madison Elsworth was shot by director Matt Ornstein in the middle of a snow storm in Keystone, Colorado.[1] In the video, Raven sings and plays both the acoustic and electric guitar, together with DJ Ashba, while snowboarders performed mid-air snowboarding stunts. "Falling Away" is the first of Raven's songs to be part of a contest in which fans submitted clips of their snowboarding tricks for a chance to appear in the official release of the song's music video. Prize winners won attractive prizes including a prize pack comprising passes and products from Vail Resorts, Keystone Ski Resort, Vans and OIGO.[2]

Raven stated in an interview with EssenSIE magazine that her boyfriend, Andreas Wiig, was the key inspiration for the music video concept. Wiig makes an appearance in the video as one of the snowboarders. Wiig and Raven married May 2013.Шаблон:Citation needed
