Lisa Bunschoten and Chris Vos are both highly decorated para-snowboarding athletes with multiple world championships and Olympic medals between them. The pair have spent their careers focused on crossing the finish line first across and had never had the pleasure of simply going slowly up a mountain on a high-alpine splitboard tour before this trip to the Dolomites of Italy.

“What sets this journey apart is the fact that both protagonists, equipped with prosthetic legs, redefine the limits of adventure and inspire by conquering not only nature’s challenges but also their own.”

Join along on this inspiring journey as two of the best racers in the world embark on a transformational path of self-discovery through splitboarding:

โ€œHaving fun with a disability or without, adds a lot to what snowboarding is about.โ€ –Chris Vos

โ€œItโ€™s really cool to show that thereโ€™s more than racing in adaptive snowboarding โ€ฆ and that itโ€™s also just going out and having fun. I think thatโ€™s really important.โ€ –Lisa Bunschoten

Also we want to congratulate Lisa and Chris who recently had a baby girl. Cheers!
