X-STREAM Skiing


Initially, stream skiing was all a joke. A lot of us were so tired of the “extreme” hype and the tremendous overuse of the word from skiing to deodorants. We decided it should be the basis of a skit in my ski film, 1999. Robb Gaffney and Shane McConkey appeared as x-stream skiers, claiming that their heyday of skiing streams was back in the early to mid-1990s. They ended up being able to descend far more lines than we expected. The next summer, when Robb and I were making a trip to Lake Tahoe and he said he wanted to go stream skiing again, I laughed. But he was serious, and that day we came up with this shot.  photo Scott Gaffney
