Sam Watson

Who hates summer?  This guy.  Why? We’re not too sure. I mean we’re winter people but only a fool wouldn’t take a long hot summer to drain the knees and let the abused feet recover.  Sam though, he hasn’t seen the temps above 20C in 4 years. An Aussie import, perhaps an adolescence heavy on the UV went to his head.  All that time on snow has really paid off for this stylish devil though, being the youngest CSIA level 4 in the history of the system.  What what.  Certified rippah, you’re going to want him beside you on the chair. Joining the Extremely Canadian team in 2022, he’s quickly flying up the ranks with the hidden bag of coach tricks and backpocket terrain stashes.
