In January 2009, longboarder Adam Colton sets out with Paul Kent and Aaron Enevoldsen to skate the length of the Andes, carrying nothing but their boards and 30-pound backpacks. Mike Hager films the attempt, and the footage covers roughly 1,500 miles of mountain highway, much of it downhill runs on switchbacks with sheer drops on one side and trucks sharing the lane on the other. The three skaters camp along the route, patch up road rash, and stop in small Peruvian towns where locals size up the boards and the gear with open curiosity. There is no narration built around a central argument or crisis; the film is a straightforward record of the trip, and its interest is in the terrain itself, thin air, switchback descents, unpaved stretches that turn a longboard run into a survival exercise, and in watching three riders push loaded boards through mountain passes for over a thousand miles. It is presented as the group's first released document of the crossing.
