If you were to write a fortune cookie for yourself, what would it say?

You will be lucky, very lucky.

Do you have a memorable snowboard/ski trip to describe?

I have had so many wonderful trips. I remember taking an RV trip out to California with some friends. I won a rail jam event at Bear Mountain and took all the bros out for Sushi. Then we played craps and drank some big big big beers. I remember waking up the next day around noon! I was still very happy on the contest win.

What is your worst experience with Ski Chalet Food?

Hmmm. I can think of French fries in Minnesota that must have been under the heat lamp for 7-8 hours. Nasty.

Any SIA Vegas experience to share?

Last year with Zero Gloves. That company knows how to party. I don’t even remember the name of the club we were at. I just remember some bottle service, loud music, and it all goes hazy from there.





What do you like better?

The Office or Lost? Office
Pancakes or Omelettes? Omelettes
Perfect Pipe Day or Cloudy Powder Day? POWDER
Dogs or Kittens? DOGS
Coffee or Energy Drinks? Aren’t they the same?
