Range Finder
Range Finder is a documentary film offering a glimpse into the lives and inner workings of professional snowboarders Mark Carter and Bryan Iguchi. Their approach is one defined by self reliance, escapism, and social distance…not by mandate, but by design. “We live to immerse ourselves completely. We strive to find purpose in the mountains with one another at our side. When you already live a socially distant lifestyle, monumental societal disruptions don't carry the same weight. During the winter of 20/21, while it seemed like everyone else was pulling the plug - we had already been living off the grid. We spent the winter of 20/21 camped at remote trailheads, where the howling of coyotes filled the frigid night air. Our snowmobiles were parked at the trailhead and so were our beds. We knew what snow conditions to expect in the morning because we had slept through the storm. Guests came and went; shared their stories and their company. We broke bread, broke trail, and broke ground on a new perspective forged through hard work, perseverance, and self reflection.”

Cosa Nostra
Arbor Snowboards was founded in Venice, California in 1995 and for the past 20+ years, has been committed to producing the world’s best snowboards with an emphasis on craftsmanship and a serious commitment to the environment. In recent years, the brand has organically aligned with some of snowboarding’s most influential riders, whose personal journeys and professional careers connect directly within the Arbor ethos. Today, the Arbor Team is the collective sum of these extraordinary and diverse individuals. From heritage to progression, freestyle to freeride, they represent not only the status quo of Arbor Snowboards, but also the status quo of contemporary snowboarding. It is these expressive and dynamic personalities that take the center stage in Arbor Snowboard’s first full-length film, Cosa Nostra. From the spines of Valdez to the frozen cityscape of Quebec, the Arbor Team travels through the regions that have influenced its own evolution. Cosa Nostra is an authentic representation of snowboarding’s manifestation seen through the life and times of Bryan Iguchi, Mark Carter, Marie-France Roy, Frank April, Erik Leon, Charles Reid, Scotty Vine, Mike Liddle, Emil Ulsletten, Ian Sams, Cam Fitzpatrick, Atsushi Hasegawa and Mike Gray.
