I cant find it but CR's segment in focused was incredible, it changed the way I look at a mountain, the music, the tricks, the location... ever since watching that movie skiing is all ive wanted to do

CR was my coach at world freeride in the summer of 2005. He taught me so much about skiing in that one week, always was chilling with the campers, getting us hyped. I'll never forget how he told me that if you just commit, anything is possible on skis. I'll never forget that lesson and I'll always be thinking about him when I'm charging a slope.

CR was a really nice guy. I met him at a movie premiere in Whistler and he was down to chat, listen to my dreams and give me advice. I am really sad, RIP CR.
