2010 Powder Day: Rage Productions Bonus
Tweet One snowy April day, Angeli, Hennie, Giray and I shuffled up Catherine’s Pass for a little storm shooting. It was hilarious. Not only did I fully shave all the branches off a pine tree attempting to “tap” it, we also crashed, swam, and swallowed the deep fluffy snow. This season, I’ve almost forgot what …read the rest
Where is the Snow?
Tweet This time last year, I was shredding feet upon feet of instant-refill powder all over the Wasatch. If watching last weeks Salomon Freeski episode wasn’t enough to make me miss last December, skiing icy man-made snow at Alta last weekend was. Last night, Ullr finally blessed us with a smidgeon of snow. It was …read the rest
Salomon TV: Alta
Tweet My first Salomon Freeski appearance! It’s short, but sweet. I wish the snow was that deep right now. My segment was filmed this time last year. CRAZY! Plus, Nat and I went for our first dawn patrol on the season yesterday. It was short, and littler treacherous, but great to get out …read the rest
Another Family
Tweet The ski community is one of close-knit friendships, shared for what each of us are commonly passionate about. This united passion fuels our family, constantly adding new members, and sometimes, it takes them from us. We’ve also all lost someone, or a few people, who have kindled these passions in us. Last night, we …read the rest
Do a Backflip! It Will Make You Happy!
Tweet Yes, backflips can equal happiness; or at least that silly, butterfly rushing, I’m-upside-down-and-now-I’m-not, giggling kind of moment. Flippy things? Well, it was Carston’s advice after all. And if anyone is the king of flippy-spinny-things at Alta, it’s definitely Carston. Somedays, I just need another reason to smile. I know, it just snowed 34″ inches …read the rest

Adventures at Alta, Day One
Tweet
A Fresh Prospect
Tweet The snow is falling, I’ve got two days of skiing under my belt, and the stoke is high at Alta. But instead of getting my competition schedule and setting my clock for registration, I’m looking in the opposite direction. This season, I won’t be throwing myself down solid venues searching for a line score …read the rest
30 Resorts in 30 Days
Tweet Last week, Seth Werner , Jamey Parks and I headed to Solitude, Alta and the Bird to ski on Salomon’s latest ski… What is this ski? Well I’m not exactly sure what to tell you. Right now it’s the “no name”, with no specs and no graphics. What I can tell you is that …read the rest
