MOTHERLOAD: it’s a film.

Legacy. It begins at birth. How will the next generation be shaped? How will the next generation shape you? The evolution of ski culture is one that goes deeper than who stomped a new trick or skied a new line, it’s about the heartbeat of the people who love the sport – it’s the feeling that skiing gives you and the act of sharing it. Tessa Treadway shares her story alongside Izzy Lynch captured by Zoya Lynch in the film Motherload. This tremendous trio created a masterpiece – literally, a Motherload of a project – that speaks right to our hearts as skiers.

“Tackling the subjects of loss, family and motherhood while producing a film in the midst of a pandemic was no easy task, but we are very happy with how it all came together and we could not have done it without an incredible team.” – Izzy Lynch
