"For the first time ever, Ski Utah is looking to build an athlete team for the 2016-17 ski season. We are looking for two skiers and one snowboarder who can help us create content for the 2016-17 season. Athletes must be available twice a week to shoot on the mountain. We are looking for expert skiers and boarders who can ride a variety of terrain from powder, to groomers, to park and pipe and most importantly, look good while doing it. Some overnight travel and early mornings will be required, but, food, lodging, and transportation will be covered by Ski Utah"

Looks like an awesome opportunity. Free pass to all Utah resorts and a full kit.

Someone on NS needs to take advantage of this. I would apply if it wasn't for the "looking good while doing it" part.

they give you a pass and some gear. I don't know if I would call that a job.

Define "expert skier"

Such an insanely broad term.

A key point is "No prior commitments to sponsors that conflict with Ski Utah sponsors including: Rossignol, Smith Optics, Eider, Hot Chilly’s, and Monster."

And yeah, its not really a job. Awesome opportunity tho

When I rent my skis I write that a type 3 skier, the highest level on the rental application so you could say I'm an expert. I ski double blacks.

Sending my application in now.

I tell the tech to "Just crank my DIN's all the way bro"... I must be in this prestigious category as well.

doesn't sound like a job.

there are good jobs in the ski industry which are attainable, but they do not involve 'looking good while doing it'
