WHAT?!?!? The season is here? No way. Noooooooooo way. It’s not November….is it? It’s ok, though. I’m ready. Ready to hit the World Cup! So, in a series of images that are pretty much the finest the internet has to offer, I’d love to show you what the next few…

Canmore camp is over, and now I’m back in Park City for a rest week at some higher altitude. It was such a good camp, getting to be on snow again and dial in some technique ideas before the season starts back up! We did a lot of volume training…

Canmore has been so good to us over the years, and this fall is no exception! The skiing at Frozen Thunder has been great, it’s been good to be on snow with beautiful mountains surrounding the town, and so far camp has been pretty relaxing! I really like this on…

Week two of Park City camp has come to a close, and in a very stylish way. Liz and I hopped a flight to San Francisco and attended one of the US Ski Team’s Ski Balls! It was retro ski themed, and we really took it to heart and dressed…

Mist and fog swirl around you as you rapidly climb the mountain. Your ragged breathing catches in your throat and you think you might throw up. You hear noises behind you – someone yelling at you – you’re being chased! Your lungs are burning, your legs feel like lead and…

“If it feels good, you’re probably not doing it right.” How many times have you heard that from a coach when you’re trying to make a technique change? When you’re doing hard intervals? When you’re racing? For the record, it’s true when you’re talking about most things related to extremely…
