Portillo Superstars Camp — August Recap
Image item
This summer’s Portillo Superstars Camp was another incredible week down in Chile. Great snow, sunny skies, and an awesome crew of skiers from all over who came to work on their technique, ski some big lines, and share a few Pisco Sours after long days on the mountain.
It’s always a highlight of my year — a chance to connect with people who love skiing as much as I do. Big thanks to everyone who joined!

Booking is open for Antarctica ski cruise 2026
Antarctica is a place that never stops blowing my mind. I'm leaving next week for our ice axe expeditions trip and already looking forward to our trip. I’ve been lucky to guide many trips down there over the years, and it’s one of those places that always feels like the edge of the earth — wild, quiet, and absolutely stunning.
Our next expedition runs October 24–November 5, 2026, and I’ll be guiding again with Ice Axe Expeditions. If you’ve ever thought about ski touring on the White Continent, this is the trip for you. It’s a mix of big adventure, amazing wild life, great people, and once-in-a-lifetime terrain.
Contact me if you're interested in 2026!

Joining DPS Skis + PHANTOM Glide
I’m really excited to share that I’ve joined DPS Skis and PHANTOM Glide this season. I’ve been on DPS skis since the spring and really connected with how they ski and the people behind them.
I’ll be working with their team on product testing, development, and some community projects this winter. Looking forward to spending time in the snow with a company that’s truly pushing ski design forward.
