Bio

Hi there! I’m Chris hopefully your next instructor/guide I have spent the last 15 years in the ski industry, hailing from Jindabyne in Australia where I have worked winters for the last 15 years.

Spending 9 winter in Hokkaido as well as Italy, Canada, and Korea where I built courses for the Winter Olympics in 2018. I have run development camps for young athletes and enjoy teaching the youngest of our skiing community.

I started as a ski racer when I was a child which quickly transformed into a love of all types of skiing, competing in moguls and freestyle.

I have a passion for introducing people to the sport and mountains I love. Be it first time seeing snow to wanting to smash pillows I know I can provide the highest quality of lessons customised to whatever needs you have.

I have a strong focus on fun and enjoyment while keeping you progressing and learning new skills to help you enjoy the mountains to their fullest.
