CLIENT: peak performance arcteryx verbier
Maude started skiing as soon as she could walk, the daughter of Bagnes' farmers, she grew up in the valley facing Verbier, between cows and donkeys. She is loud, spontaneous and some say, the most underrated female skier of her generation.
Elisabeth started skiing when her parents bought a chalet in Verbier and they would come to the mountains every weekends. She is a hypersensitive introvert who questions everything and mostly herself, showing clear signs of impostor syndrome, she defines herself as an « unexpected world champ".
The 2 freeriders couldn’t be more different and yet are bound by a friendship that might never have happened, transcending social barriers and fueled by a shared love for the mountains.
After years of dedicating themselves to the Freeride World Tour, Elisabeth and Maude rediscover the pure joy of skiing, free from rankings and expectations. With humor, depth, and an unshakable connection to the mountains, the film dives into their personalities, exploring what makes them so unique, both as individuals and as friends.
"What makes us different? Well, everything!" Elisabeth
