This Snowboard/Ski documentary of epic proportions follows 3 world class riders in their quest to shred a series of iconic mountains and lines in the Alps.
Meet Geraldine Fasnacht: Basejumper, wingsuiter, glaciers ultralight pilot, and triple winner of the Verbier X-treme snowboarding contest. Epic.
Geraldine’s list of experiences embody the spirit of thrill seeking. And now she’s leading the charge to further push limits in the world of high alpine using a plane.
THE CREW
Alongside Geraldine Fasnacht we have
Marion Hearty- Snowboarder driven by an endless quest for discovery, dominating the competitive freeride world, fuelling a desire to become a pilot herself.
Christina Lusti- Evolved from World Cup alpine skier to certified ACMG ski guide to big mountain film star and expedition skier as quickly as the pace she sets up and down mountains.
THE FOCUS - The Monte Rosa & Lyskamm(4533m)
The Monte Rosa landing and the descent of the Neighbouring Lyskamm will be the ‘red line’ of the film.
The logistical and metreorological complications of landing a ULM at that altitude and getting the Lyskamm face in rideable conditions are many.
THE VISION
Geraldine invited us aboard her ULM (ultralight plane) to share her philosophy and fly through incredible landscapes painting lines with her snowboard in the film, Line&Air.
It's a raw take on what it means to achieve goals in uncertain terrain and follows in the footsteps of past pioneers who only dreamt of touching down on such sensitive terrain.

Line & Air
"I am fortunate to have a passion: the mountain. It offers majestic and infinite landscapes which are my oxygen.
Like an artist, I draw my line on the most beautiful couloirs in the world. A short moment when I am just one with the elements!"
- Géraldine Fasnacht
