What ever happened to Big Air Dave?!

So, if you don't know, Big Air Dave is a skier who goes bigger than anyone on jumps and rails. AKA he only overshoots. Here's his channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN8dpMZnU1XrGF70if3QJeQ

Now, the dude hasn't posted a video for a looooonngg time now, and I was wondering where he went? Did he just give up on the whole gig? Did he go to big? Did someone put dynamite in his boots? WHERE IS HE NOW?

I ski at his home resort a lot. None of us have seen him since last season. He's an elusive creature.

Ben, who filmed and edited big air dave goes to school at utah state university and big air dave goes to ohio state university or something. He might come out here during spring break doh and maybe an edit shall emerge. The world may never know.

He goes around an possesses the bodies of skiers everywhere. Whenever you see an overshoot that is actually an example of Dave himself taking over the wheel. I had an experience with him two weeks ago where i took a 5ft kicker to 40ft and went about 20ft up in the air. He provided me with the strength to do it. Thank you big air Dave, you are my hero.

Big Air Dave was never real. He was a chakra/vision placed in each of our collective psyches to inspire us to ignore the gucci plateau, overall knee health and take it one step bigger.

Heard a rumour that he attempted to hit chads gap...... And he still hasn't landed.

The day he lands will be catastrophic. It will be equvalent to the force of a large meteorite. We will wake up to a large ominous voice booming "I'm big air Dave and I hit medium sized features really hard." Then there will be impact.

big air dave seems like the kinda guy to start a cult and move to Thailand to pursue a dream of collecting coconuts that he can use to build schools for little children

Apparently Big air Dave went so big on a jump last season that he never came back down and is still in the air till this day.
