McRae Williams Shows off His Backcountry Prowess in Magic Hour

This week, we’re showcasing another new face to the TGR roster, though definitely not a new face in the world of freeskiing. After a career as an Olympian, X-Games medalist and slopestyle World Champion, Park City local McRae Williams set his sights on taking his tricks to the backcountry alongside the TGR crew. This winter, the Volkl skier joined fellow freestyle-minded athletes Nick Mcnutt and Simon Hillis on a mission to Canada’s powder heaven at Kingfisher Heli. The three fed off each other’s energy to bring some big tricks and big air to the zone’s famous pillows. Catch McRae’s full part TGR’s Magic Hour, on tour now and available for streaming on Nov. 1.
