When you aren't shredding what are you up to? Photography, girls, skateboarding and having a good time in any aspect.

Which 12/13 SIMS board do you prefer to ride? The E-Board 155 and Quest 158.

What are your goals for the 12/13 season? Keep my momentum from the 2012 season, film a great part with Wild Card Movies, and get more shots in Snowboarder Magazine.

What is your first memory of the SIMS brand? No specific image just always an awesome SIMS back cover in Snowboarder Magazine. Also the SIMS Switchblade was my older brother’s first board and as he was my biggest influence, obviously what his first snowboard was sticks in my mind.

What was the first trick you mastered? Backside 540… Which evolved to backside 900.

Where is your favorite place to ride your SIMS board and why? Sunny days in Breck Parks, or Pow days in Baker Washington.

How many snowboarding related broken bones have you accumulated? 6… If you include a minor knee surgery.

Are there any weird rituals you do before a contest? I listen to Relax by "Frankie goes to Hollywood".

You had a pretty epic showing at Superpark this past season, tell us about that experience? It was amazing and definitely an honor getting the Super Park standout. I just went into it with the plan to charge from start to finish every day.

As a coach at HCSC what is the one thing about snowboarding you think is most important to teach the young little rippers? I think confidence in your riding and commitment are the two things I really push on all my campers.
