Name: Dave Young
Age: 31 years young [Nov' 07]
Years riding: 19 years
Sponsors: K2, Sessions, Oakley, Skullcandy, Magic Potion, Ellis Brigham
Winter home:Somewhere snowy I hope
Summer home: Tignes, Saas Fee
Influences in skiing: mates and movies, although probably more in a motivating way rather than influencing.
Ideal day on snow: I would get up around 10 when the sun in my world comes up. Then I would take the helicopter, with a few mates, up to the top of the sunny mountain. Get off in the Cadbury's sponsored cable car station and get a quick choc fix, maybe with a glass of milk too (good for your bones). Then we would all grab freshies top to almost bottom with no sign of an avalanche. Then just before the bottom there would be a sick park (nice and soft) that would surprisingly go on for miles. We would all escape injury of course and repeat the run a few times. Then I would eat something yum!! ......and the rest of my perfect day I ain't telling you as it's a family website!!!!
