Skiing Specs
Skill Level: Currently going for my PSIA Level 3 Certification.
Years of Experience: Skiing seriously since last February!
Favorite Trick: Staying on my feet in something very steep, narrow, and technical.
Specialty Trick: I can do a loop jump (from figure skating) on my skis.
Favorite Spot: Bridger Bowl, baby! The ridge is awesome. AWESOME! Also a fan of Snowbird, Aspen Highlands, and Big Sky/Moonlight basin.
Skis: Right now on Volkl Attivas. Interested in the AC 40's, Rossignol Radicals and z-9s. On K2 Shucksans for AT work.
Bindings: Whatever comes on em, they are all packaged. Although I also have the Dynafit on my Shucksans, which I love.
Boots: Dalbello Proton 12. I love them! AWESOME off the rack for my high volume, spreading, fleshy foot. BUT, I needed an AMAZING boot fitter (Brent Amsbury, Park City Pedorthics) to be just right in them
Poles: Goode Carbon Fiber Comps, Black Diamond Flick Locks for AT.
Helmet: Just ordered a Poc Skull X2 and a POC skull light. Broke my Giro.
Goggles: POC Lobes, Oakley
Jacket: Marmot, looking for the Arcterx Sidewinder, want a soft shell also.
Pants: Patagonia Rubicon, they RULE!
Gloves: Black Diamond Mercury Mitts, the only way to stay warm! Mountain Hardware for spring.
Backpack: Black Diamond Covert with Avalung. Best pack on the market by far, for me!!
