Fred Laberge lives life on the edge of danger. An extreme sports athlete and physical trainer from Quebec Canada, Fred began his career as a high-level snowboarder and downhill, competitive skateboarder. But, it was ultimately the luge that had him instantly hooked. If you've seen the luge on MTV or X-Games you know these guys put themselves and their bodies at risk by flying down hills at CRAZY high speeds. Fred's "No Fear" attitude and knowledge of pavement conditions help him plan his lines, or pathway, down the hills and reach the pinnacle of the sport. If you're an adrenaline junkie this is the episode for you!
