Currently, Kevin Pearce is travelling the world to educate people about the perils of extreme sports, and how to keep hope during the long journey back from brain injury. He is also promoting The Crash Reel, a documentary following his journey from an ambitious grom to the top of snowboarding, to his accident at just 22 years of age. While in Australia, he sat down with ABC’s Radio National to talk about the film, and his life before and since the injury.
