WAYWARD 2026
Now streaming on Amazon, Documentary+, and Xumo is Wayward, a new feature documentary about the women who changed snowboarding, on the mountain and across the industry. Director Mia Lambson Brady weaves together four decades of rare archival footage and firsthand accounts from the pioneering athletes who pushed the sport forward while fighting for visibility, opportunity, and respect in a male-dominated industry.
The first documentary of its kind, Wayward examines the evolution of gender equality in the snowboard industry over the past 40+ years, through the lens of some of the world’s top female snowboarders: from its humble beginnings in the 80s and 90s; through a tumultuous time in the 2000s, where inequality and sexualization thrived; to today, when cultural and financial support has reached all-time highs, resulting in unprecedented athletic progression.
Many of the themes in Wayward run through the most acclaimed women’s sports documentaries. From the surf break to the soccer field to the face of El Capitan, these films capture the thrill of watching women push the limits of their sports, break gender barriers, and excel in the face of obstacles their male counterparts rarely had to consider.
