Where are you from, where you at?I’m from Ontario, Canada but I’m at Whistler for the summer, and then back home.
How long have you been riding?Since I was 9, so about 11 years.
What’s your set up?Goofy, 22.5 inches wide, +12o front and -12o back angles.
Do you customize your gear in anyway?No I rock what the company makes.
Most memorable new trick you landed for the first time?Nollie back tail through a kink, or cab 10. Pretty stoked on both.
Any pre-shred “go to” meal?Just a good breakfast: eggs, cheese, bacon, ketchup, ranch, salt and pepper all wrapped up and grilled to go.
What’s your typical post shred location?Couch, watch some edits, maybe a movie with my homies, then go skate if it’s nice out.
How would you describe your style?I don’t really know how to describe it. Not baggy not tight, just right….
Any snowboard superstitions you believe in?Definitely never call last run and always do up the right boot first.
Snow porn or real porn?Both
All expense paid vacation anywhere, where would you go?Somewhere hot like the Caribbean, Hawaii, or Bahamas… I haven’t ever been on a vacation like that.
Craziest riding experience from last season?Most memorable is riding whistler all spring and working at Camp of Champions all summer with my homies. Such a fun time out there!
Best and worst thing about snowboarding right now?It seems like you have to have a few doubles to get noticed and it also seems like it’s a lot harder to do a back 10 single cork or flat spin instead of double… but that’s just me.
Where do you plan on spending next season?Mostly in Ontario filming with some friends, might travel a little bit for some contests, and then move out to whistler for the end of the season and summer shredding.
Any shout outs?Everyone at Rome! The rest of my sponsors, 686, Smith, Icarus Skate and Snow. My family for the support, I love you guys. And everyone else out there, keep up the shred!
