FIFTY FIFTY 

Featuring Global Athletes Sarah Huenekin and Ines Papert 

Filming Location: Banff

Tying in with a partner doesn't mean just working a pitches or sending the crux together. It symbolizes the intersection of approaches, and how climbers at either end of a rope share similar goals. For Ines Papert and Sarah Huenekin, the nexus of their aspirations comes as they both climb past the age of 50, inspired to keep pushing hard, striving to reach their full potential, and perhaps most importantly, constantly working to better understand themselves. 

IN BETWEEN DAYS

Featuring: All Arc'teryx Athletes

It's not often you get a group of 8 snowboarders to agree on conditions, but if there's one place that makes it easier, it's Japan. Linking up with local legend and fellow team member Tadashi Fuse, follow along as Elena Hight, Robin Van Gyn, Spencer O'Brien, Sean Miskiman, Victor Daviet, Jared Elston, Joe Lax, and Severin Van der Meer search high, low and everywhere in between for deep turns and high times. 

MIMIC

Featuring: Ambassador Piper Kunst

An artist and professional ski athlete, Piper Kunst navigates exhilarating highs and challenging lows of both skiing and creative expression while she creates a monumental studio art piece that mirrors her own experience on the mountain. Worlds that seem apart slowly drift across believed boundaries as Piper's passions work as guides for self discovery. In this visually progressive project, we understand the profound connection between Piper's art and sport through the lens of self-discovery. This essential link between her two passions inspires the project's title, "Mimic".

TIM 

Featuring: Tim Sackbauer

This Arc’teryx film tells the powerful and heartwarming story of Tim Sackbauer, a resilient athlete carving his own path through the world of snow sports. Living with Down syndrome, Tim uses adaptive skiing not just as a sport, but as a means of self-expression and freedom. Supported by a close-knit family with skiing in their DNA, he finds confidence, autonomy, and joy on the mountain.

More than just a ski film, this inspirational skiing documentary is a moving celebration of inclusive sports, resilience, and the healing power of outdoor adventure. With beautiful scenes of mountain life and heartfelt moments, the film highlights Arc’teryx athlete Tim Sackbauer’s journey as a symbol of adaptive snow skiing, disability in sports, and the importance of creating space for all athletes to thrive. It’s a story of courage, family, and carving turns—on his own terms.
