Two things I was reminded of @wearegritt

- Skiing in September with your buddies is the best
- riding a nutcracker is impossibly hard

First of what will likely be a few NZ photo dumps.

These trips remind me why I am so grateful to be a part of the ski community. What a life to be able to travel across the world and join the @wearegritt crew to help out at the freeride camps for a few days, followed by a Whistler crew link in Wanaka!

Day One in Images from @mtolympusnz

Endless amount of fresh snow and air time, we are always so stoked to be at Mt Olympus! The sun is out, the vibes are high - who’s ready for day two??

Some winter coach coops highlights. What a season! The most fun winter I’ve ever had thanks to the @whistlerfreerideclub coaches I got to hang with and the athletes I had the pleasure of coaching! Looking forward to doing it all again next year! by @cooperbathgate

Retirement never looked so good!

Decided to step away from competing this season and enjoy skiing for myself with no outside pressure or expectations.

This was the first trip in the last 12 years that wasn’t for a ski competition, and it was the best!

Time to put the coaching hat on for the rest of the season with the @whistlerfreerideclub and I couldn’t be more pumped to fire up the next generation at the @ifsafreeriders comps I grew up doing. taken in Verbier, Switzerland by @cooperbathgate

3 weeks chasing the @fwtqualifier challenger series summed up into 10 pictures. Had an absolute blast getting back in the start gate and I am so grateful to have gotten a wildcard for these events.

Unfortunately the competition side didn’t go so well, crashing in two out of the 3 stop series put me out of the running for the overall. But it was so much fun to be on the road with @jacksonbathgate and the rest of the fellas again.

I’m not sure if this is the end of the road on competition skiing for me, but if it is. It’s been damn fun, and I am so proud to be a part of this community!
