Yep! We're doing it again!! Absolute Outdoors is bringing you the national premier of Reel Rock 19 on the labour day weekend, right in the heart of Gariwerd.

Make a long weekend of it, stay in town, climb, visit the brewery (they have live music Saturday night!), buy some new climbing gear, do your bit to help the local economy recover after a pretty rotten summer!

The Film tour

Reel Rock 19 showcases three world-premiere climbing films spanning disciplines, characters, and continents: a heartfelt story of second chances in love and climbing on Squamish’s legendary Cobra Crack; an outrageous 18-day big wall epic on Patagonia’s towering Torre Central; and the pursuit of a lifelong dream—a 5.15 first ascent—made possible by an unlikely partnership. Reel Rock 19 is on tour worldwide starting March 2025.

DEATH OF VILLAINS: A former child climbing-prodigy confronts his struggle with disordered eating to attempt his life-long dream of climbing a groundbreaking 5.15 first ascent, with the help of an unlikely, and controversial partner.

Featuring: Kai Lightner & Joe Kinder

RIDERS ON THE STORM: Three Belgian big-wallers endure eighteen days of howling snowstorms, frozen feet, and gnarly runouts in their attempt to make a long-coveted alpine first ascent.

Featuring: Siebe Vanhee, Sean Villanueva O’Driscoll & Nico Favresse

THE COBRA & THE HEART: A turbulent 20-year saga of love, loss, and redemption: a whirlwind romance, a crushing defeat on a legendary climb, a religious epiphany, and family betrayal, all building to a desperate bid for a rare second chance—at love, fatherhood, and climbing.

Featuring: Didier Berthod, Thomasina Pidgeon & Cedar Pidgeon
