Arctic Lines

A brainchild of Finnish professional freeride snowboarder Antti Autti, Arctic Lines was born from an endless passion for the outdoors – especially exploring new areas for freeriding and backcountry endeavors. In 2020, when travel was limited due to the pandemic, Antti Autti had his most memorable winter to date. He spent months exploring his home turf, something he hadn’t experienced for many years due to his job as a professional snowboarder. The time spent at home led to the idea of creating a video series in which Antti searches for different freeriding locations in the Arctic, just a day’s drive from his home. As the project moved forward and gained publicity, the requests for guided tours started to come in. At the same time, Antti and his friend Ville had been organizing the ski season kick-off event Arctic Weekend, the biggest snowboard and freeskiing festival in Finland. The idea of combining these elements – film productions, guiding and events – under one umbrella started to evolve in Antti’s mind. After a few years of planning, the concept of Arctic Lines as an outdoor experience company was born. Arctic Lines is a young company with a big heart that strives for continuity. Our mission includes non-profit initiatives in addition to business. We strive to preserve and create opportunities for anyone interested in outdoor sports.
