I swear, the more and more I hear about Henrik, the more and more I start to believe that he is Jesus. Click for larger image

Are we talking like they knew I was skiing with them or that I just followed them around the park while trying to stand out as good?

Bobby Brown, Mack Jones, Finn Anderson, Matt Sterbenz (if he counts).
They were all super cool and chill. I'd love to ski with any of them again.

Joe Shuster, Sean Pettit, and Chug.
Joe and Chug were hilarious and Joe made fun of a lot of people. Pettit seemed like he was in a bad mood at the time.

Josh Bibby: super nice and supportive, can slay anything.
Rory Bushfield: like a hyperactive, overexcited child. Definitely one of my favorites to ski with.
Garrett Russell: I seriously just wanted to be his best friend. Seriously a wise dude.
Colby West: extremely helpful as a coach, and very nice and supportive.
Peter Olenick: funny, a ball-buster.
Michelle Parker: I'm in love.
Mauri Cambilla: is the fucking shit. I can't speak highly enough of him.
Pete Connolly: smart, mature, super nice, really committed to actually teaching you something.

Also not a pro *skier*, but Skylar Holgate is a truly awesome man.

I started skiing in PA when I was a thirteen year old gaper. As soon as my brother and I saw the park we knew we wanted in. Roundtop riders always shredded around my home mountain and Wallisch and Stepp (Green Goblin at that point) were the best riders. My first day in the park the Roundtop riders crew was hiking a rail. My brother and I went up to who I am pretty sure was Stepp and Tam Wellurch and said "we want to learn how to do rails sideways like you guys!". Instead of being dicks they gave us step by step instructions for how to set up scissor and ride away like a G. We were hooked from that point on.
Stepp if you read this, I just want to say thank you. You guys inspired my brother and I to get in the park and it has been so fucking cool to see skiers from our home mountain in PA rise to the top of the sport (well maybe not stepp because hes an am).

I had the honor of riding up a chairlift with Will Wesson, and then took a run with him.
Awesome day.

If you ski in Keystone/Breck you will see a ton of pros, not saying you'll ski with them, but you'll see them a bunch.

halfpipedreammet a bunch... doesn't matter......

but I do want to say that CR Johnson was genuinely the nicest guy that i've met even in life in general. I had no idea who I was talking to that afternoon and he was so nice, let me drop in first, etc. Someone told me that afternoon who he was, and then 7Sunny came out later that year. Biggest inspiration in skiing hands down and when I say that it has literally nothing to do with "Inspired". He was an admirable guy, a true role model, and I wish more pros would act more respectably like he did. True legend.


I can't believe you actually met him. As you can tell from my signature CRJ is my favorite skier ever

I sat a few seats away from Tim Durtschi on my plane down to Argentina last August but i was too shy to talk to him on a red eye.

I pm'd him on insta a few days later but unfortunately by the time he replied i was gone... It would have been a good time.

skied for a weekend with JP Auclair and a day with Tj Schiller. Met Tanner hall in a random back alley in Calgary. I guess a lot of people I used to ski with are pros now too.

Challenged Tom to a game of S.K.A.T.E at wisp last year over Christmas last year at wisp.
I saw the fear in his eyes as he declined...
