What are your current side projects or passions?
This summer I have been working a lot but when I’m not doing that I like to get out and fish.

How many years have you been snowboarding?
8

What´s your home mountain?
Buck Hill

What’s the reason you keep snowboarding?.
I just love the feeling of riding and pushing myself to get better. It’s rewarding to see clips when they come together and the progression every year.

What does your L1 set up look like this year (what jacket and pants and colorway)?
I’m riding the Aftershock pants in military and Kilson tech fleece in black.

Do you like the new pant leg cuffs the L1 pants?
I do, they fit snug on the boot and keep the snow out.

How has your snowboarding evolved the last few years?
I started filming back at Buck Hill with my good friend Erik Karl and from there we started filming videos in the streets. Since then I’ve always looked for new things to snowboard on and just have fun doing it. 

What movie can we see you in this season and where can we see it?
Panic Order. It will be online November 27.

In what way do you want to give back or express yourself within snowboarding?
I do it because I love it and I want to play a role in it progressing. It’s sweet seeing people get excited about snowboarding and younger kids wanting to try it or get better.

Who are the people in snowboarding right now that keep you motivated and hyped on the current stat of snowboarding community and/or direction?
All my guys in Panicorder of course but really anyone that supports snowboarding and wants to see it keep moving forward.

Whats your favorite thing about L1 Premium Goods?
The people. Everyone is really supportive of each other and they truly care about snowboarding.

Is there anything else you would like to add?
Thank you L1.
