Who has had the biggest influence in your life? Why?
I would have to say my mom because she supports me in everything I do. Also because she is an Olympian I feel like I have a lot to live up to.

Who or what has been the biggest influence on your riding? Why?
Probably Tj Schiller or Jos Wells because of the steeze they bring to the sport.

How did you cross over from amateur to pro, is there a story behind it?
Right now I think I’m still an amateur so we’ll see what happens.

What other hobbies / activities are you currently into, what do you do when your not riding?
In the off season I like to skateboard and rollerblade along with water ramping and tramping. Chick hunting is fun too.

Candle light dinner with girlfriend or McDonalds drive thru on the way to the mountain?
Definitely going to go with the candle lit dinner.

Where’s the last place you have visited outside the States? Any notable stories?
Last place out of the U.S. was New Zealand. It was basically the coolest place to be; Mountains everywhere and friendly people. Not too many stories other then I hitchhiked for the first time. Yeah I was stoked.

What’s the last book you’ve read?
“Night” by Elie Wiesel about the holocaust

Europe or AK?
Not sure haven’t been to either but I guess I’d have to go with Europe

What are you rock’n to on your I-pod / cd player?
Depends on the day, but I like everything from rock to rap

Favorite Album of all time?
WAY too many good ones to choose from

Where do you see your sport in 5 years?
Hopefully in the Olympics.

What’s the scariest thing that has happened to you while riding?
I’ve been pretty lucky with skiing (knock on wood) but 2 years ago I was skiing up at Stowe doing a roof jib and I landed switch and didn’t turn around in time so I ended up in a river. ha.

Where’s your favorite place to ride? Why?
Breckenridge. It’s a perfect place to train for pipe and park, and it has good all mountain skiing to complement those other two essentials. Plus Duncan Adams lives there.

What’s the Best Trip you’ve been on?
The best trip I’ve been on was when I went to New Zealand

Favorite Movie:
I can't pick one but- 300, Blood Diamond, Caddy Shack, Super Bad, and Super Troopers

Thongs: trend or a mainstay in female fashion?
Definitely a mainstay.

Any parting words?
You keep it classy, Planet Earth.
