January kicked off 2026 with purpose, progress, and a powerful reminder of why community sits at the heart of High Fives Foundation. As winter settled in and a new year began, our focus turned toward momentum, building on everything we achieved in 2025 while opening the door to what’s ahead.
The launch of the 2026 Shred-A-Thon Series set the tone for the season, inviting communities nationwide to rally around access, inclusion, and the joy of sliding on snow together. Product storytelling took center stage with the introduction of the Nordica Golden Enforcer 99, a limited-edition ski that blends performance with purpose.
January also marked a major moment for education and prevention with the release of the B.A.S.I.C.S. #HelmetsAreCool Documentary, a powerful film amplifying athlete voices, science-backed insight, and the importance of protecting what matters most. And as we reflected on the close of an incredible year, the Last High Five 2025 Recap highlighted the generosity, passion, and collective impact that carried us across the finish line.
From storytelling to safety, fundraising to forward momentum, January reminded us that progress isn’t something we wait for, it’s something we create together. With snow on the ground and a full year ahead, we’re charging into 2026 driven by access, fueled by community, and inspired by every athlete who reminds us what’s possible.
As we celebrate these milestones, we look forward to the journey ahead, continuing to uplift, support, and champion our athletes every step of the way.
