Favourite ski experience – skiing on an awesome powder day in Avoriaz with two of my best mates, it just dumped it down for 7 solid days
Notable achievements in skiing – just to be able to say I ride for big ski company is a big enough achievement for me, it helps so much and I am truly grateful.

Funniest thing seen on snow – blades and poles always makes me smile!!! You know who you are!!!
If I weren’t skiing, I’d be … really really bored, but id like to think I could be something casual like Jesus
Favourite ski movie – teddy bear crisis
Best competition you ever entered – I really like the way the refrigerator Vs KSM works, its always different every year so you never know what the format will be. A great atmosphere and a great chance to ride with the top uk riders.
