Rory Hackett

Rory Hackett might be from the UK, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t tick all the boxes of being “Extremely Canadian”. Growing up, Rory’s Canadian-born father brought him skiing in the alps and from that moment he was hooked. 

At least hooked enough to dedicate some time on the dry slopes—where he eventually earned a 3rd place in the Indoor Slopestyle Championships and the “Best Crash” award for British Skiing.

In the summer. Rory coaches in the bike park, honing his skills in instruction and enjoying the summer sun—but always keeping an eye on when the snow will fly next.
