What's up Sam? How has your summer been treating you?

Hey! My summer has been great so far! I've been working up at Woodward Tahoe for the past month and a half!

How did your season go this past winter?

My season went great! At the end of the season I had risen to 43rd overall in the AFP rankings!

Which was your favorite event/venue to travel & ride at?

My favorite venue was Winsport in Calgary, Canada. This was my favorite because of the atmosphere and the pristine halfpipe!

You had a solid overall win at Nationals this past season. Tell us how that whole event went?

Thanks! The event went awesome and it was great to have Nationals in my backyard at Copper Mountain! I just worked hard in practice and gave it my all during the competition.

Of all the events you compete at, which would you call your favorite?

My favorite event was the NorAm Slopestyle at Winsport, Canada. The course was innovative and allowed me to do a Misty 450 off of the last rail, which is my favorite trick!

Favorite Tunes to jam to before your run would be…

Lets Groove - Earth, Wind, and Fire
Come and Get Your Love - Redbone
Sweet Disposition - The Temper Trap

Awesome, Sam! Thank you and have a great summer! Any shoutouts you would like to make?

Thanks! I would love to thank you guys, Volkl Skis, Marker Bindings, Dalbello Boots, Smith Optics, LEKI, Blackstrap, Christy Sports, and Woodward Tahoe!
