Wylie hasn’t spoken to the GOAT in two years. Her mother, Claudine Potts is a world champion Olympic alpine skier. Claudine’s father Kipper, was also a champion Olympic skier and from the time she learned to walk Wylie was expected to be one as well. When Wylie finally succumbed to debilitating panic attacks she disappeared from the skiing world. Studying art and working in a quiet museum in the Berkshires is a peaceful, safe existence for a girl that could not breathe in the spotlight. Her boyfriend Dan, who is also her personal trainer, controls every meal, workout and sleep pattern of her daily life. It has become so easy to be told what to do rather than make her own difficult decisions. Dan has entered them into a duo fitness competition in Berlin. What began as a quest for prize money becomes a mission to prove to her overambitious mom that she too can be a winner. When Dan unexpectedly cannot compete Wylie shockingly turns to her mom to be her partner. They set off on an adventure that becomes a trip down memory lane and an opportunity to reconnect with and examine how her downhill skiing career crashed much more than just Olympic dreams. This quirky cast of characters stranded in the snowy mountains is filled with friendship, romance and a mother and daughter that are more alike than they think. ⭐⭐⭐
