2nd Place In Telluride World Cup!

1st Pierre Vaultier (FRA), 2nd Chris Robanske (CAN), 3rd Nick Baumgartner (USA)


Great success in Telluride, CO, USA for the first event of the season. And my debut back to the World Cup tour after my 10 month recovery.





Whole Shot in the first round
I can not express how great it feels to be back on snow and put down a result like this. I would not have been able to do it without Level 10 Fitness. Anthony worked with me to get me into the best shape possible. Marilyn Adams is possibly the best physio therapist in the world! She has a insane work ethic and will go out of her way to make sure her athletes are the best they are able to be.

Pierre and I celebrating after the finals




The whole Canada Snowboard team has helped me so much with my return to snowboarding. I believe this is the first podium of many. Thanks for all the support!

Stay tuned for the next event in Austria mid January.
Ill be hungry for another podium.
