Hi! I’m Ari
I’m an action sports pro, podcaster and filmmaker. Foolish as it is, I’m trying to change the world by mindfully growing up and I’m encouraging others to do the same. It seems to be working.
This site is where my content lives and a like-minded community grows. Glad you’re here. Cruise around, sign up for the mailing list, and if you’re so inclined, throw a coin in my hat through the donation links.
Love, Ari

Highlining and Kayaking over a HUGE Waterfall
I set up my first highline over Sahalie Falls in 2014. Three years later, I went back with a crew of world-class kayakers so that I could stand on the line and watch them kayak over it. It was crazy. In this episode I recount the adventure and make an epic edit of the madness. Enjoy!
Thanks to all the people who made this happen and gave me footage to make this video possible! Devin Tegan and Wes Coughlin especially! Huge ups to the sick paddlers, Knox Hammock and Galen Volckhausen!
