Mark is so easy to talk to about all sorts of topics that you forget he\\u2019s an iconic freeskier with numerous awards under his belt. In 2005 and 2007 he won the Powder Video Awards for Best Male Performance and is well known by his amazing freeskiing skills that are captured in film through his nearly two-decade relationship with Matchstick Productions. In fact, he\\u2019s been featured in every single MSP film for the last 18 years, as well as several Warren Miller and Poor Boyz movies.\\xa0

It hasn\\u2019t gone to his head, though. He started mogul skiing before switching to park competitions and chipping a career out over the years. He says it has humbled him and led to a certain amount of contentment over the years.\\xa0

He\\u2019s incredibly down to earth and always eager to talk about health, longevity, and his used veggie oil-fueled adventure truck. He joins us from his home near Whistler, BC.\\xa0
