Thanks for a great interview! I had no idea that Todd used to race.
Just watched the Inception ski scene–the ski/machine-gun combo always makes me giggle.
My hot take: everybody gets to have their own cup of tea, but my own cup of tea is to judge people like Jonathan for not preferring the style of freestyle skiers like Sammy, because there are literally hundreds of pros that can ride with speed down a big face and huck cliffs, but there’s maybe ten, twenty tops that are willing to try a dub cork on big natural hits. For once I’d like to see someone from the ‘former racer’ set get in the park and put in the work to develop their trick repetoire past 3s and backflips, cause people like Sammy, Tanner, Alex, Colby, Markus et al. definitely have been getting into big terrain and putting in the work in the opposite direction.
