Consistently, day in and day out, Reid wants to spend more time on snow. He'll do anything in his power to click into bindings and be on his skis. Despite nagging injuries, Reid continued to show his passion for freeride for yet another season. Although Reid didn't quite see the competition results he would have liked, it was amazing to watch his progression this season; especially in his tricks. Reid's unwavering passion for the sport has impressed me more than I often give him credit for, and I can't wait to see what he'll be able to accomplish next season.
