Leading Edge Productions
Overview
—[if gte mso 9]>
Established in 2000 by Mike Foy, a passionate cinematographer
and extreme sports enthusiast, Leading Edge Productions emerged as the definitive
choice for individuals looking to experience visually compelling scenes from
sports such as kiteboarding, windsurfing, snowboarding, and mountain biking. An avid sportsman himself, Mike Foy enjoyed an
early interest in competitive ice hockey and lacrosse. At the
age of 18 he realized his passion for wind-related sports and never looked back.
He has now spent most of his life chasing the sports driven by what most
consider a hindrance – the wind. Mike
found inspiration not only in the sports he pursued, but in his academic career
as well. Armed with a degree in
Recreation and Leisure studies from the University of Waterloo, Mike soon
realized his dream in combining both passions – wind and film. By taking part-time courses in cinematography
at the Vancouver Film School (VFS), editing and after effects at the British
Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) he was able hone his skills, and this dream
soon became a reality.
Traveling extensively and meeting people within various
sports and entertainment industries allowed Mike the opportunity to pursue his
vision, and expand upon his film and video production business. Leading Edge Productions now offers the “Leading
Edge trainer kite” package, which includes a Leading Edge 2-meter trainer
kite, “Trainer Kite Bootcamp” DVD with
detailed user guide, and “My Session – Volume 1” instructional DVD. Leading Edge
Productions also sells a number of well-known “classic” kiteboarding DVD’s such
as “Small Craft Warning” and “Sick Days.”
In addition to his extreme sport video production work, Mike Foy helps
to produce quality music videos and documentaries, as well as independent films
and commercials. For more information regarding Leading Edge Productions, visit
