He is the most famous guy to strap into two planks and is often referred to as the best skier in the history of the sport. The only skier to have won all X Games disciplines (Big Air, Halfpipe and Slopestyle) and take the title of the Freeride World Tour. His game changing POV edit series ‘One Of Those Days’ gathered 35+ million views worldwide thanks to his fast pace, effortless style and ability to do what no one else thinks possible.
