Sorry for double thread, but I just made a thread talking about where JMO Irvine had gone seeing as he had a pretty heavy comp presence a couple years back. I then started wondering where a lot of skiers went who were pretty heavy somewhat recently but havent seen much from in recent years. Just want to know what happened to these weaponized skiers/maybe have people add to the list.

Gaute Silseth

Maks Gorham

Mark Abma

Frido Fredericsson (had the most nuts dub/maybe trip wobble 14 at JOI some time ago)

Andrew Hathaway

Kaj Zakrisson

Jeff Kiesel

Chug

PC Fosse (first dub 14 ive ever seen/had huge corpo sponsor back in day LG)

Christopher Frankum

Mike Mertion

Pako Benguerel

Colby James West

Ryan Wyble

Obvi Brogan (but I feel like that's already been pretty heavily discussed)
 
Maks Gorham- Aspen area, still skiing and one of the best skiers there is

Mark Abma- still filming with MSP etc etc

Andrew Hathaway - electronic music

Kaj Zakrisson - I think this dude still shreds and is on solomon, hes like a dad though

Jeff Kiesel - no idea but he was fire

Chug - not skiing

PC Fosse - still shreds I believe

Colby James West - announcing?

Obvi Brogan - Boulder?

only answers I have
 
^ Pretty much all I know and I know Wyble coaches kids at Park City. I want Kiesel to come back, dude tossed hammers in Windells edits.

damn you hit on a lot more than i expected when making that long ass list in the post. I was pretty sure Maks hadn't left the game I had seen snippets of him in the K2 v Nordica challenges. Ever since stept dissembled I didn't really know what happened to Maks/Shea Flynn. Clayton, Cam, and Seanny J are doing their own project and Noah went over to Level 1/his own project too, so I wasn't really sure what Shea and Maks were up to.

Side note, to add to the really long list, was wondering what happened to some of those Toy Soldier skiers? I know Austin Torvinen was sniffing distance from being Superunknown winner like 4 years in a row and did that ridiculous flip switch ups. Recently though most of that crew (Sandy, Khai, Shae) went off to film with other people and Austin IMO had just as good of a segment in Act Natural as any of them but hasn't posted anymore Superunknowns or anything really for that matter. Wonder what happened there. Also Brock Paddock had a baller segment in Act Natural and have not seen anything from him. //rant

PS- those Sheahan edits have sweet vibes like the editing style for sure

Gaute Silseth seems to be ballin in the world of real estate sales or some such, doesn't seem to be skiing much. Has pulled a full Jon Olsson when it comes to fashion.
 
kiesel seems to have retired to posting dog pictures on instagram and occasionally appearing in yoke edits

Damn sort of a shame, his appearances in paul braunstein edits were money. He was one of the first I saw consistently doing sniper taps, seems like he woulda been a good fit for Line Traveling Circus

Crazy, I researched his name and realized the last big edit posted of him was this eheath edit two years ago and realized he was 34 at the time! Pretty impressive he's still out there murking

He was in the most recent Salomon Freeski TV episode too
 
Tucker Perkins?

Wing Tai Berrymoore?

Tommy Ellison?

Blake Nyman?

Marc Andrew Bellevieu. (paralyzed but still charged in his sit ski)?

Peter Olenick?

Xavier Bertoni ( him and rolland had that show togather)?

Also does Matt Harvey do anything in skiing anymore. Its weird that he created the most influential site in freesking history and now has nothing to do with skiing.
