I search barred and couldn't find much. Who are your biggest inspirations in the free skiing world and why?

I would honestly say Giray Dadali is propably my number one choice followed by Adam Delorme. Watching Girays comeback is fucking beautiful. Dude went from exploding his whole mid section to being one of the fastest up and coming riders on the market it seems like and in his interviews you can tell he never takes anything for granted. And Delorme to me has always had such a beautiful style that is incomparable in my opinion.

I don't need inspiration, I'm obsessed. I love watching great skiers but even if I never reach their level I'll always ski. I'm not earning money skiing, I'm not advancing my career prospects skiing. I'm just skiing and damn if it never gets old.

I just took a year off skiing, and then came back this past season. I also had to deal with a person not letting me ski, trying to control my life.

After all that, skiing for the first time with friends and just that feeling I got....it was just incredible. It was like the feeling I got the first time I was on skis. I wasn't even in the park either, just sliding down the main hill. It made me realize that I didn't really need motivation to ride besides the feeling of skiing itself.

On top of that park skiing is fun, but just sliding down a hill is amazing. You don't need perfect jumps, or pow, or rails to have fun. Just putting on your skis and going down a hill can just be incredible after a long time of being off.
