The short films feature an assortment of adrenaline-packed action sports in incredible, wild and remote locations across the globe. Eadaoin Hutchinson, Marketing Controller for The North Face UK, commented 'The North Face® also sponsors the event in Canada, so it made complete sense to be involved with the UK tour.

You can go and watch inspiring films on anything from Alpinism, Climbing, Ski-ing, Mountain Biking and Base Jumping'.
