Hometown: Bend, Oregon
Sponsors: Patagonia, Salomon, Smith, Tactics, Mt. Bachelor, Crab Grab
Boards: I have about 20 different Salomon boards depending on the season, conditions, and my mood. Some are new models, some are 10 years old, some are splitboards, and some are one-of-a-kind prototypes. If I had to choose just one, it would be the Salomon Super 8 160cm.
Bindings: The front bindings are low-back Salomon Quantum Carbon, with a steeper forward lean for the back bindings.
Boots: I use Salomon Lo-Fi boots for skiing on the lifts and Synapse Wides for splitboarding.
Favorite Resort: Mt. Bachelor, of course.
Favorite food: Swiss chocolate
Favorite trick: The only "real trick" I do now is the backflip.
Favorite Video Part: Travis Parker "Robot Food's Lame."
Motto: "YES" With friends on a powder day.
