So I've been pushed farther and farther out into the mountains, but at the same time realizing that that experience is really nice and I'm glad I'm getting pushed out there farther.

What you do once you're beyond the confines of your local lift service can be as limitless as the mountains themselves.

Oakley and Burton have been my main sponsors since '87. I've been riding for both of them.

While I will always have the utmost respect for the superhuman out-of-bounds freestyle and extreme stunts that seem to continually progress beyond our imaginable limits, my highest appreciation goes out to the simple rider who's out there just for the experience.
