An epic tale that explores the birth of freestyle through the wild life of Eric Hymans, Australian skiing’s original bad boy, from skibum to number one to recluse. Son of legendary ski pioneer Bob Hymans, who built the first chair lift in Australia, Eric won two Australian mogul championships. After starting Falls Creek’s iconic Team Red with a bunch of talented athletes. This gang was instrumental to the explosion of freestyle skiing during the 1970s and 80s. Establishing the Summit Masters they planted the seed of freedom.

Born to fly uncovers the circumstances that made game-changing performers. Plus the relationships that saw an enigmatic character refine his art and ultimately fall from grace. Laced with historical significance and a refreshing candour, this story delivers lessons, wisdom and humour from a freeride elder. About crazy times at the forefront of extreme, along with the perils that exist, between Australia and Europe.
