Welcome to CultureCast, live from the LAAX Open 2026, hosted by Jess Kimura.
As a professional snowboard legend, storyteller, and founder of The Uninvited, Jess brings an
authentic, culture-driven perspective to one of the most iconic events in snowboarding.
As a North Face athlete, she has spent years shaping conversations around progression,
representation, and creative freedom in snow sports.
Broadcast live from LAAX, CultureCast goes beyond competition results to explore the culture
around the Open — from the energy on the mountain and the village, to nightlife, brand
activations, and the people driving snowboarding forward.
Across the show, Jess speaks with leaders in sport, storytelling, design, and culture, alongside
surprise conversations with world-class athletes, creators, and sports brands — capturing the
full atmosphere of LAAX as it happens.
Presented by Zalando, CultureCast brings the slopes to online audiences, offering a front-row
view into the creativity, community, and culture that define the LAAX Open.
This is not the competition.
This is the culture around it.
👉 Tune in live and experience LAAX through conversation, creativity, and community.
