Some tidbits;

Who is your favourite skier to watch right now?

There are a bunch of skiers that I love watching right now, but there is this one Norweigian kid, Christian Nummedal who I just found out about a year ago and he is one of my favorites at the moment. Im just really stoked on his style and the way he skis.

Advice for young skiers;

I think that kids who are coming up in skiing need to put less emphasis on the sponsors, the future, money, Olympics and all that stuff. Of course, it’s really great to have those dreams and to have ambition, but you’d be surprised how quickly it can change from a passion to an occupation. I would encourage any young skier to just enjoy the sport and remember why they love it. I didn’t ever think of skiing as a viable career when I was a kid, I just loved to ski and it was something I did with my friends and my brothers, so I did it as much as I possibly could. I worked hard to get better just because I wanted to be the best in my peer group and wanted to do the tricks the pros did. As my career started to come together, I saw an opportunity and I worked my ass off to do everything possible to nurture it. It was never about any of that stuff before I started though.
