I was thinking the other day about all of the original and more recent pro's who fell out of the sport without much of a trace.

What are they doing now?

The big ones I can think of are:

- Brad Holmes - ?
- JoMo - ?
- Evan Raps - ?
- Mikael - ?
- Corey Vanular - ?
- Vincent Dorion - ?
- Dave Crichton - ?

These are just guys I haven't seen or heard of in the last little while. Are they still in the industry?

Clint F. -- He got me hooked up with salomon for my first sponsorship - That was before the 1080's even existed - We used to bend the tails of our X-screams in my garage at alpine meadows - he is still around plays golf in TCGC once in a while - One of the nicest guys out there


Mike Laroche- That dirt bag (just kidding) - he had a rough go around in 2001 - CR his high school mate took off while Mikey was sidelined - Last I saw him he had bulked up a good 30 or forty pounds from his skiing days - His dad is still around I think he reps Line still - Good guys!! True truckee locals

Aaron "fist fight" McGovern is a joke to many in tahoe. He is ok, and we run into him quite a bit at squaw or in TC but his days of hyper crashes are over...he still KILLS it daily though - try following him around KT on a powder day and you will likley die!!

JT is para-base-ski-diving with Shane all over the place -- NUTZZZZZZZZ

Skogen still rips it up - sleds like a motha fucker and we still se him and clint at Alpine with the usual suspects on good days

Someone mentioned Kaya Turski -
After recovering from the gnarly internal injuries she sustained at ICER, she blew her ACL last year a few weeks into skiing again down in New Zealand. But she is back on snow now and will be stomping the sheeet out of cab 10's before you know it - Chea Kaya!

As for pretty much everyone else : Injury; moved into other industry jobs; or got sick of the bullshit and ski for fun now.

ced I cant believe you mentioned brandan buchar on that list I didnt think people knew this guy.  For anyone who wants to know watch MSP's The Front Line and check out the closing segment.  Hes the guy throwing the sickest nose mutes well before anyone even knew that grabbing your nose was kocher.  hes a fucking waste of life now just smokes way to much weed, has no knees, and is trying to run a freestyle program at a ski club and is running it into the ground.

As for Roach- yeah he fucked his knee up wakeboarding his senior year of highschool and never really recovered to the big leagues. Helped coach Alpine Meadows freestyle for a few years but the douchebag head coach Clay Beck wouldnt tolerate his habit of chain-smoking blunts. Now hes 30 lbs fatter and is a rep for Oakley.

As for Mike Wilson- He manages the Lib Tech team and has gone the way of numerous other Squawllywood has beens- getting as X-Treme as he possibly can performing numerous base jump and parachute stunts- a sad phenomena if you ask me. But he does still slay and was throwing some gnarley double rodeos over squaws monster gap this year.
