Don't ask me why, but for some reason Andy wrote Will's bio on the Orage site. I found it pretty entertaining.

Billy Freshen? (aka Will Wesson) - Yeah I know that guy, I went to highschool with him.

Its kinda hard to peg down who the real Bill is. My brother Alex would say "he is a smelly cave man", and I sorta agree but I don't think cavemen can do a switch 270 onto a down rail. The best way I can describe Bill is he's a die hard ski bum living in the 21st century. He lives cheaply, skis an insane amount and is down to sleep in a car, van, on a floor, or whatever is available.

Bill gets work done during the year filming with Level 4, Meatidiots, and Traveling Ding Dongs, while getting photos published and making his own edits. Its the best living with him because he is never home and pays the rent on time. He is just in pure ski mode 90% of the the time, and the other 10% consists of going on Facebook and trying to fly model helicopters.

I don't know what else to say about Bill so here is a story about the first time (key word is first) that he punched me in the head. So we headed up to Lake Placid with some friends to hit the water ramps back like 7 years ago. Bill, my friend Erik and my self were waiting in Erik's car and I was really bored so I decided to screw with Bill. I had found a penny and a lighter then started to heat up one end of the penny and tossed it into the back of Bills shirt. It wasn't even that hot, I mean I was holding onto the other end of the penny and it wasn't warm one bit. He just freaked out, then turned around and socked me in the forehead. Great times.

-Love Always, Andy
 
i noticed that too lol.

also will wrote andy's bio.

almost all the bio's were written by another skier on the orage team. like phil wrote jp's and visa versa.
 
Margs' is pretty entertaining too haha:

What to say about Marg...

I get to spend heaps of time with the guy and really see the man inside.

On the outside he may just seem like a smelly, stereotypically stubborn Canadian who looks a lot like the first step of the evolution from ape to man, but really he's a warm hearted guy with mucho passion and style on hill that'll melt your face. He's a rockstar, a god of partying. The guy has taught me everything I know about making party and I know he's always down to tie one on.

During the comp season I spend countless hours talking shit to Marg; thankfully he's a easy going guy that knows how to give it right back rather than just knock me out. We have really different points of view but I feel like I can relate to him more than anyone in our industry. He has heart. He has more heart than anyone standing in the start gate or looking down a fresh line he's about to tear in the back country. I've never seen a person in my life put more devotion and pure unfiltered emotion into every single motion he makes on skis. If things don't go well, you know, because Matt has put everything on the line and you can see it in his eyes. Sometimes you don't have to finish first to earn respect and Matt has shown why he deserves everyone's respect. I truly love this guy for everything he is and that he represents and i'm happy to call him my friend.

- yours truly, Banks (aka; financials)
