Did a few days of photo's this week for Karhu running and got the chance to shoot with Chris Milliman. If you dont know Milliman is basically the top dog when it comes to epic looking shots and has an eye for taking sweet pics of everything from portraits to action shots... and is one of the coolest photographers in the business. check out his blog at http://chrismilliman.com/blog and follow him on Instagram!
For the past 5 days I have been in Park City testing on the skiing treadmils at the USSA training center with the US Ski Team Science team. Although the tests are brutal .. including 2 max tests where we ski until we pass out off the back.... we learn a lot about training and out bodies. I was able to put up some good Vo2max readings and showed some solid numbers for early training season testing. It's all about how much oxygen an athlete can pump through their lungs. Next stop, skiing at Mt. Bachelor Oregon for our first US Ski team training camp.
This year will mark the 10 year anniversary of my first skiing film Generatoin X Ski. We were just young high school skiers at the time but it's still really exciting to look back at all the stupid things we were doing back then.
here are some clips from Generation X Ski

Anyone who is involved in the skiing world knows the history of the Holmenkollen 50k. it's one of the oldest and most bad ass ski races out there taking place just outside of Oslo city on some of the toughest ski courses you can put together. Last weekend I was lucky enough to get the chance to race the 50k and it was an incredible experience. With temperatures creeping up toward 50 degrees it was a hot and slushy sufferfest, with record slow times because of the slow snow. No skier under 2.5 hours. The thousands and thousands of people lining the course made it all worth the effort though.
