Favorite thing you enjoy doing on skis?
Girls.

If you could spend a week skiing anywhere, where would you choose?
Anywhere with good terrain, good snow, and good friends. As for a specific location, I really want to get up in to the Selkirk Mountains of BC.

Why do you ski so much?
Pretty much the only time I feel like Im in my element is when I have a pair of skis strapped to my feet.  When Im skiing, the dopamine is flowin, and when I get that dopamine flowin everything just falls into place. There are few things in this world that get me feeling like that, and none of them are as healthy, reliable, and rewarding as skiing.  I am truly blessed to have such an available method of accessing such momentous enjoyment on a daily basis. We all are in this community.

Complete the sentence: “Never have I ever…”
Skied with a snorkel on.. although my avalung has sufficed as a good means of avoiding suffocation while skiing some epicly deep POW (just doesn’t look as cool).
