QUESTION: Are you ever sacred going off jumps and rails?
ANSWER: Before I was scared to slide on the rails in riders words it call weep...... but now I go easy and smooth try to concentrate into my move... For the jump it was to not get enough speed before the jump so I try to do nice style with a good landing, the landing is very important to me.

QUESTION: when did you get your first sponsor? and what advice would you give to all the kiddies out there who want to go pro?
ANSWER: Hey Nikolai! Tj and I's first sponsor was our local ski shop. They hooked us up with free skis through the local rep. Making video's of yourself really help's as well as a list of competition results and a ONE page letter telling a little bit about yourself like where your from, how old you are, your goals and such. Another thing to remember is that you ski because it is fun! Always have a good attitude because the attitude you give off is the attitude you will get back. So go out there, get a friend with a video camera or a dad or a cousin, have some fun, film it, and don't be shy. Talk it up with everyone, the ski industry is small and as long as your friendly you will make a lot of friends that can help you out. Have a great year! Happy Holidays!

QUESTION: Hey Josh, I know your sick on the rails, and I've been hitting them, but when I bail or crash my pants take a beating. Now I've got a bunch of burn marks and little cuts at the cuff of my pants and I wondering if there's anything I can do to prevent this other than landing the rail. Thanks, Louis
ANSWER: Hey Louis, Happy Holidays!! If you hitting green or Red rails then at least your spreading Christmas cheer. Other than that I often think it looks pretty badass with different battle cuts and spots on pants. I asked my grandma just now on how to get off paint and she reccomended that you take a cloth and dab some paint thinner on the spots you want clean since that is the only thing that will get paint off. Always remember though, if your not falling then your not trying hard enough. My Dad always told me that one, so there is some advice from my Grandma, my Dad and me. Happy New Years!!

QUESTION: Hey Josh, I was wondering if you could give me any tips on how to chill really hard in Golden. I heard the town is super fun and theres tons to do there...
ANSWER: Hey J-Bone, Check out the Legendz Diner, good food and nice people plus it's a perfect place to watch other people get stuck or slide around on the road. Then you can stay at the super 8 hotel just a short walk away and wake up in the morning and do it again. Kicking horse is also a great resort which just opened, so you could also go skiing there it's 14km's away from the highway.
