Career:
Snowboarder, editor White Lines snowboarding magazine, co-presenter Ski Sunday and High Altitude.
It is less than a month until the Winter Olympics start. What will you be covering?
I’ve got six or seven events to cover. If I get to see the skeleton in Whistler and ice hockey final in Vancouver I’ll be a very happy man. The ice hockey is going to be insane.

I’m not sure I know anyone who’s quite that mad as to ski deliberately in an avalanche area – or do you? How do you get your extreme adrenalin kicks?

Snow is in the Air…
We can feel it coming…, as can the Metro:
“Returning to London Olympia next month, the show is crammed with classic attractions from past years alongside plenty of new additions for 2009. London will get a dose of the white stuff a little early as Olympia is transformed into a winter wonderland, courtesy of Dare 2b who are filling the venue with ten tonnes of real snow.
Join in an attempt to set a new record for the world’s biggest snowball fight, or opt for a calmer pastime and build yourself a snowman. There will also be an ice rink and the chance to meet a pack of Canadian huskies.
Sound a bit sedate? Don’t worry, this is still the place to witness gravity-defying, heart-stopping stunts from the best of the international ski andsnowboard scenes.
The centrepiece of the show, a 5.5m purpose-built kicker, will see the world’s pro boarders and skiers launching themselves skywards to show off their gnarliest tricks.
On Friday, 24 skiers and snowboarders will battle it out in the final of the British Snow Tour Invitational Championships, pulling out all the stops to impress a panel of industry expert judges.”
