“True life adventure in the Southern Alps.  “Wherever there's a mountain resort you'll find them. The crazies. For these young people excitement is the drug. It pushes them to the limit of their skill and courage. It compels them to seek out the challenges of the unknown, wherever it may take them.  “For Matt a young ski-patroller from Colorado, the challenge is New Zealand. Uncrowded, undiscovered and a million miles away from the late snow, trees, and broken legs of his Telluride home base.” - New Zealand Film Commission; www.nzfilm.co.nz/film/the-leading-edge; 31/01/2014.
