Professional snowboarder, climber, and BASE jumper Alenka Mali has built a life around exploring the mountains from every angle. After five years competing on the Freeride World Qualifier circuit, she traded competition for the backcountry, seeking out big lines and remote alpine terrain.
In this presentation, Alenka takes us into the mountains of Alaska through photographs, stories, and behind-the-scenes moments from her adventures. From committing snowboard lines to stepping off cliffs with a parachute, she shares the excitement, uncertainty and decision-making that come with moving through serious mountain terrain.
This presentation is a personal look at a life shaped by snow, rock, flight, and a desire to keep exploring what lies beyond the next line.
