RE·SIL·IENCE
The Cast
Joe Lax
Present on the day of the accident and part of the rescue attempt, Joe was one of Dave’s oldest friends and lives in Pemberton with his young family. In the summer he is a forest fire operations chief and in the winter is a ambassador for Arc’teryx and Jones Snowboards, spending his time exploring and snowboarding the dramatic terrain of his home range.
Chris Ankeny
Father, business owner and a surfy-smooth snowboarder, Chris was also present on the day of the accident. He strives to balance an innate need of spending time in the mountains with his responsibilities to his family, career, and friends
Daryl Treadway
Dave’s big brother, a former professional skier who reached the highest echelons of the sport before deciding to settle down to focus on his growing family and career as a high-school teacher.
Brad Slack
Another key member of the crew, Brad is a father, carpenter and action-sport photographer who not only rides alongside his friends but has become the defacto documentarian for their out-of-this-world exploits.
Delaney Zayac
Delaney’s laid-back personality belies his fierce attachment to skiing lines that would have most people running in the opposite direction. When he is not in the mountains he runs an organic farm in Pemberton with his wife and family.
DAVE BASTERRECHEA
A legend in the annals of snowboarding history, Dave B was at the forefront of big-mountain snowboarding throughout the 90s and 2000s, pushing the limit of what was previously thought possible. He now lives in Pemberton, BC with his wife and son and runs a snowmobile accessory company that helps riders all over the world get out into the mountains safely and efficiently.
