WITHOUT A PADDLE - FULL MOVIE

Without a Paddle is a canoe film about snowboarding, that blends a 140km winter paddle from the foot of the Mica Dam to the top of the Revelstoke Dam with the history of the upper Columbia River.
Four intrepid snowboarders seek to retrace a portion of David Thompson's footsteps down the Columbia River, in the middle of January, during one of the coldest snaps in recorded history in Revelstoke.
Surreal frozen landscapes, epic paddling, deep powder riding and a lot of pain.

"you're talking to an apparition here" - that was a powerful line. Thanks for including the story of the Sinixt in this, learned a lot.

[@sansfoy1114]

This movie has everything: winter camping, canoeing, mega shredding, sweet music, unbelievable cinematography, male nudity, Sinixt woman laying down serious wisdom, museum lady with big knowledge, sausages grilling, canoes, campfires, ice, snow-I love it. Love it! Good job, lads.

[@moistshit1kal]

Lol, so the male nudity sold it for ye hey? Gheeeeeeeey

[@thealai8593]

Yooooo boys. Thank you so much for acknowledging the land we are on. And then some. Marilyn James?! YES. This is the first snowboard (/canoe i guess?) video I've seen with an indigenous elder, plus going above and beyond to explain who's land this is and the history of it, which has been buried by the government for decades. You guys shoulda stopped by the blockade at 120km north of town, you were probably so close! If anyone is looking for more info on the Sinixt, please look up the book "Swift River" by Laura Stovel. Again, thanks so much! This was a treat!

[@stokedflyfisher]

I really enjoyed this but had a real sense of watching people bite off more than they could chew. Eg "We had all the radios in one canoe". In the middle of nowhere in fog and snow?! Glad you all made it back!

[@_eric_phillips]

This whole film is amazing, telling of the indigenous story, the journey, and the snowboarding. Thank you for teaching about the Sinixt

[@SharkCommanderTV]

Gonna need a part 2 because this was an amazing excursion. Never seen anything close to what you guys have done here.

[@Jackstraw77]

[@bushtruck]

shedbots, I offered you 5 or 6 different movie titles on your instagram direct msgs about a month ago and have received no response. These were pretty good titles and should be looked at indeed!

[@andrewscanzano4846]

What an outstanding film, from the story to the learning to the boarding it was incredible.

[@evanbratt4579]

This is brilliant. Just when you thought 4 talented dudes couldn't get any cooler, turns out they're some of the best snowboarders you've ever seen...

[@Damngoons]

Amazing documentary. Expressing the freedom of having fun and exploring. Love to hear such beautiful truth spoken on behalf of the Sinixt people. We all really need to stand up for such tragedies and preserve our rights and freedoms amongst this planet. We are all children of mother Sofia. SHREDBOTS WITH THE MESSAGE! 🗣🙏🏼

[@jacobvantuinen5426]

Damn. Pretty stunning little film. Such beauty mixed with the potential for nasty consequences. So much awe it's a little sickening to watch. Can't imagine how different a trip it would be if there were no dams there at all. Well done.

I really enjoyed this video and the amount of getting after it that was involved. The risk though....had a canoe capsized in the middle of the lake....that doesn't seem survivable?

[@CaseyDaniels777]

Well done.

[@ddecamello]

Beautiful film and message :) Let's get rid of some Dams

[@courtneyhoward9664]

Ambitious trip. Congratulations on your survival.

Beautiful. Feeling a little guilty enjoying something like this given what's going on today around the world, but it's a good reminder to wake up and connect with what you have, while you can.
