Today we will ski for one of the greatest skiers that ever lived. He pushed our sport so far and made it what it is today.

S.I.P

This weekend is going to be all about shane, I switch from snowboarding this year because he influenced my life so much. I just wanted to huck cliffs and just ride with such style.

Rest And Ski in Peace Shane.

I skied for him today, without knowing it. It is a big loss to the skiing community.

Now I must listen a segment of him in his honor
