Film Overview:

"This is Home" follows Faction Collective athletes - including Candide Thovex, Duncan Adams, Tim McChesney, Johnny Collinson, Henry and Kelly Sildaru, and many others - as they return to their respective bases around the world to show us how they get it done on home turf. Revisiting old playgrounds and favorite lines, finding new challenges and scoping out secret spots, this film chronicles what it means to be a freeskier today – where the conditions are what you make of them, and the search for that perfect ride begins in your own backyard.

This powerful ski film is sure to get Vancouver fired up about winter and the unbeatable terrain of British Columbia, and we expect a huge turnout for the Canada Premiere; the "This is Home" trailer has received more than 500k views since its launch in September. The film will also screen in Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec.

About Faction Skis

Twelve years on and although everything has changed, not much really has. Having been at the driving end of new technologies like super fat skis, rocker, lightweight hybrid cores, recycled materials, symmetrical twin tips and a nod back to traditional, hand-crafted manufacturing techniques, the industry is still the same.

It's the independents who are leading the way. Led by skiers who work for the love of the community they are part of. 

And that's exactly who we are. An independent group of skiers, artists, film-makers, staff, partners and fans that has grown over the past 12 years to more than just a sum of its parts, united by a love for the mountains and the tools that allow us to escape there.
