DRIVEN is a film about the motivation, inspiration and drive that fuels a three-year snowboard movie project featuring John Jackson, Gigi Rüf, Manuel Diaz and Victor Daviet.

“This is a film about what drives these four men to snowboard,something which in turn through this movie, we hope drives you to go snowboarding.”

 

 

DRIVEN follows these four powder hounds across America, Austria, Canada, Japan and Kamchatka. The DRIVEN crew spent one month in each location to maximize potential, while minimizing their carbon footprint. Pro snowboarders are lucky enough to visit places that many can only dream of and DRIVEN transports viewers to far-out corners of the world they may not otherwise get to experience.

 

From the steep, snow-capped pillows of British Columbia to the ash scorched slopes of Kamchatka’s volcanic mountains which overlook the Pacific Ocean. Visiting far flung places to go snowboarding elevates the risk factor and so working with a tight knit crew is essential, which forms life-long bonds. DRIVEN explores the camaraderie formed by such bonds and also the different ways our four heroes decompress, motivate and thrive together.
