Credited as Walt and as Mitchell’s skating double and a rollerblader.
Why the role works
Chris Edwards helps give Airborne its very specific mix of teen comedy, hockey rivalry, romance, and skating-movie momentum.
Airborne memories
Edwards connects the story cast directly to the film’s skating craft: he plays Walt, is credited as Mitchell’s skating double, and appears among the professional rollerbladers. He continues that connection to blading through KRS Blade Brand.
Still rolling
KRS Blade Brand describes Edwards as being in his fourth decade of blading. The connection is included as a present-day continuation of his skating story, not as a shopping endorsement.
