If there’s one thing Owen Leeper is known for, it’s his knack for hitting absolutely GIGANTIC cliffs on his skis. This year, with an epically deep snowpack in the Tetons, he kept up that trend, hitting some classic airs around Grand Targhee before stepping up to a truly massive one this week. Even more mind-blowing is the fact that Leeper sent a massive frontflip off the lip, something he claims actually makes it easier. With airs this size, Leeper says he has to commit to landing on his backpack to absorb the impact, as it would surely result in a leg injury if he tried to stomp it.
