Just Wow, in every way. Beautiful photography and two amazing stories, both 100% worthy of being told.

Colorado climber & extreme skier, Barry Corbett, and Colorado paralympic athlete & X-games mono-ski champion, Trevor Kennison, take inspiration to the next level in this deeply moving documentary about courage, fortitude and adapting to life after traumatic injury.

I love that Kennison and Corbett are referred to as 'adaptive' vs. 'disabled' - trust me, watching Kennison drop over the edge at Corbett's Couloir, the word "disabled" is the last thing that comes to mind. They both land tricks that most able bodied athletes would struggle to perform.

Fun Fact: The movie soundtrack includes adaptive musicians from across the U. S.

This movie is definitely "Colorado style" (a few will-placed F-bombs and no punches pulled when it comes to showing the daily realities of living as a paraplegic) and to me, that's what makes this movie to the top tier: it's relatable.
