2017/2018

This season I am riding Rossignol’s Soul 7 and the Spicy 7 skis. The new air tip technology produces a weight conscious ski, the lightweight carbon alloy matrix and paulowina wood core makes for a smooth responsive feel. I ride the Soul’s all mountain and take my Spicy’s into the backcountry for long touring missions.

LOGO LOOK CYCLE

Dynafit Partners with Look and creates the HM12

hm12

A high performance Freeride binding designed to help you perform off piste. This binding gives me the kind of confidence I have on alpine bindings in a lightweight tech set up.

I’ve also trusted the Experience 130 SI boots and the FKS binding to keep me charging hard in freeride competitions for over 5 years. For more information on these and other Rossignol products see www.rossignol.comlange-logo

lange-xt-130-freetour-ski-boots-2017-acid-green

The fit, the flexion, and the feel of a 130 flex race boot with tech fittings. Transferable from my alpine bindings Pivot 140s to my backcountry set up HM 12s. What more could a girl ask for?

INTUITION_BOOTLINER_LOGO

What more could a girl ask for? Well custom liners of course. I only trust Intuition on those cold winter nights spent shivering in a snow cave. When frostbite is not an option and performance is a must look no further. Custom moldable fit, warmth and ease on & off. There is no contest…

The FlyLow Logo 6.21.11 (2)

Manufacturers of freeride apparel and ambassadors for the soul of skiing

pumafoxy bibs

This year I chose the Foxy Bibs and the all new Puma Jkt. I am excited about the new Puma Jkt because of increased pack-ability and its lightweight, high-tech mountaineering design.

swany

I only trust Swany gloves to stay warm and dry all day. My choice this season is the Korvett Under Glove. Its fit and dexterity make it an easy all day wearing glove no matter what activities I am doing. Leather palm gives me great grip on my poles considering us backcountry users don’t wear pole straps and the Polar Tech Neo Shell makes sure I don’t overheat on the way up.

Wrangle the Chute 2017

I have no idea how many times I have done the inaugural “Wrangle the Chute” event now, but I can tell you I look forward to it every year because it is an exemplary event. This year at Wrangle there was an Athlete shred day. We all got together and shredded as one big crew the day before the event and whether you were a seasoned athlete, or a entering you first event you got the impression that this group of athletes is a family and we support each other. I get asked a lot why I continue to compete into my 30s, I could say what I always say which is “winners never quit”, but a more genuine reason for my drive to stay competitive is that it keeps me connected, with the industry, with athletic standards and with my freeride family.

 

To all the young shredders out there wondering if he competition life is for them, hear me when I say… This is a family that subscribes to your channel and will continue to support you no matter the outcome. But don’t take my word for it, you’ll have to come check it out yourself. See you next year!
