What's your favorite type of skiing to do? Ski the park or shred deep pow

Pristine park, or epic pow? Epic pow when its around, the park will always be there.

What got you involved in skiing? I grew up racing, but I also skateboarded a lot and really liked the whole extreme side of sports. Once I saw happy days I hung up the race skis and headed to the park.

Favorite skiing memory?
Heli Skiing in Jackson Hole. I went with my whole fam, mom, dad, and brother. Everyone slayed, deep deep snow.

What is is about skiing that you enjoy the most?
Jumping. Flying through the air off a 100 foot jump is the best thing in the world.

How has being sponsored changed the way you ski?
It has just enabled my to have more fun. I can now travel all winter and ski at some of the coolest places in the world!

What do you hope to accomplish on a pair of skis this year?
Try to do some tricks nobody does, and just be creative. I really want to expand the things people are doing in the urban scene, just cause there is so much room to expand. I really want to start doing some of the stuff they are doing in snowboarding.

How does your skiing/segment in a movie reflect who you are?
Its just about your personal style and what you like to hit. I think a movie segment can say a lot about a person. I’m not sure what mine says about me, the viewers can answer that.

Whats your favorite on-hill snack?
Cold cuts, and a bagel are what I usually munch on. But lets be honest, everyone loves that like $14 chili in a bread bowl they have in the lodge. But I guess I never get that.

What do you when you're not skiing?
Flim ski movies (http://www.facebook.com/l/19131;www.steptproductions.com), and go to school at CU.

Free tickets to Jerry Springer - you going?!
No doubt. I would be on stage getting rowdy.

The Olympics are this year - you going?!
I really want to, but our bobsled team didn’t qualify so I’m not sure if I am going to make it anymore.

Party tonight at Johnnys house - you coming?!
Been there, done that. And yes I’m RSVP’ing for round two.

What were you doing under there??
Nothing

(under where) GOTCHA!
No you didn’t, commando steeze…

When you're 70 years old, what are you going to be doing?
Shredding pow with my private Heli in Jackson Hole.

Emo or Gangsta pants?
Emo… pause not.

Bagel-bites or Hot Pockets?
Pepperoni Hot Pockets, not even a question

Triscuits or Wheat Thins?
Wheat Thins, with sharp cheddar.

Chocolate or Vanilla?
Twist. Get it?

Butterscotch or Hazelnut?
Butter and Scotch

Thanks?
To Salomon and PBP for doing big things!
