Film Night: Freeride Inspiration
Join us in the Vallugasaal on Friday night for a selection of films guaranteed to keep the freeride energy high and the inspiration flowing. From pro snowboarders redefining the meaning of backcountry, to dream-like Japanese powder odysseys, this is a night dedicated to the spirit of freeriding — and everything it has to offer.
Films will be presented by Arc’teryx athletes and the filmmakers who brought these stories to life.
We’ll be showing:
Sweven with Sebi Mall
Tim with Lucy Sackbauer
Tandem with Maude Besse
La Varappe with Edgar Cheylus
Sweven
Japan. Visions of untouched snow. White noise. Imagined landscapes.
A journey into the unknown traced by skiers Martin Bender, Alex Williams, and Sebi Mall. What unfolds isn’t the dream they imagined but something more. Every eye bends the world differently and within that distortion motion emerges, with each line leaving its own mark, raw and unforgettable.
Starring athletes: Alex Williams, Martin Bender, Sebi Mall
Tim
Tim Sackbauer is a skier hailing from Vail, Colorado who was also born with Down syndrome. Introduced to the mountains by his family, a tight-knit bunch with skiing in their DNA, he learns to carve his own path and rise above expectations. Taking to the slopes, he finds a refuge for expression, solace, and a way to navigate the complicated world around him.
