What Bern gear are you rocking this winter?
They're all dope lids, so we'll see what mood I'm in.

What are your plans for this winter?
Shred the gnar DUDE! Do some comps, go sledding lots and get back to big mountains lines and pow. Jumping in pow.

Best trip you have taken in your career?
Quite possibly the Olympics. It was pretty damn sick. Everything about it was amazing. Opening ceremonies, competing, watching friends win medals, hockey games, pow riding in trees on an empty athletes only ski hill (yeahya). Just such a fun trip. I could go on for a while about it.

What would you do if you were not a pro shred?
Had I stayed in jersey, probably would have been surfing. But I didn't, so I'll go for a monkey trainer. I'd train monkies to fling poo at people in zoos as they walk by. That or an mechanical engineer. Who knows...

Influences?
Dave Basterachea, Jonaven Moore, Scott Gaffney, Keir Dillon, Andrew Hardingham, Kevin Sansalone, bunch of other super shreds. Pretty much all my friends. Which now includes quite a big chunk of the pro shred community. So it's dope. Growing up watching Terje and Todd and being able to chill and ride with them now is super sick. Kelly Slater, Burnquist, Tony Hawk, Jordan guys that pushed their sports. There's a huge list I guess. My dad for sure. "love your job and it's no longer a job"

What makes you happy?
Shredding pow with the crew is definitely the top of the list. Shredding in general. Surfing. Chillin and playin with my friends

What is your biggest fear?
Jail.

What is in your Ipod?
Lots. Pennywise and misfits to Johnny Cash, to Bob Marley, to Jack Johnson and Xavier Rudd to... there's a lot. Antti Autti just got me some Richard Cheese (aka Dick Cheese). It's super funny. He just covers popular songs but in a Vegas lounge singer style. It's sick.

Favorite food?
Cheescake. Chocolate frozen mocha cheescake to be precise...

Favorite Movie of all time?
Star wars (originals) Caddyshack, Slap Shot, Zoolander...

Other Sponsors?
Whistler-Blackcomb, Bataleon Snowboards, Spy, Reef, Cheetah factory racing and Rude Boys snowboard shop. 32 and surefoot help out too.

Goals in life?
Have fun.

What are your bad habits?
Bad habits? WTF? Who says I have bad habits? Gotta go. Swell's coming in...
