Most Embarrassing Moment in Skiing: While in Breck I was skiing the Freeway park and Match Stick Productions happened to be filming that day, so I go really pumped up finally seeing some of my favorite pros skiing in person. So I decide to drop in on the big line and after the first jump I feel like I am going to slow so I tuck it for the 2nd hit as soon as I was in the air I knew I was done for, I completely overshot the landing about 90-100ft from the jump falling about 25ft out of the air right on to my back. I was sore for the next few days and when I aproached Jon Olsson later that day he instantly recognized me as the kid who “cratored out on the 2nd hit.”
