This month, we end the year with a cover star that we are very excited about who is the most decorated snowboarder in X Games history, with 24 medals (G11, S10, B3) as well as being a 3X Bronze Olympic Team Canada Snowboarding medalist - Mark McMorris!

He has additional coveted list of sponsors as well as including Oakley, Dove Men + Care, KLM AIrlines, and Toyota to name a few.…

Carmel Retreats opened its doors in 2020, after owner, Barry Shimo Farb navigated his own journey with cancer and realized how deeply restorative it was to spend time on this property. Guests told him, “I didn’t know how exhausted I was until I exhaled here,” and he felt that during his own recovery. He wanted to create a place designed around that moment — where the surroundings are healing. Carmel-by-the-Sea is one of those rare places where nature and creativity comes together. This village sits beneath a veil of Monterey pines and ocean fog, and there’s a calm that you feel within minutes of arriving. The air smells of sea salt, woodsmoke, and blooming jasmine. Artists, writers, and wanderers have come there for a century to find clarity and inspiration…

Heli-skiing with SEABA is about small-group, high-touch adventure in some of the most expansive, untouched terrain on the planet, with guides who migrate to Haines each winter specifically because this zone delivers the kind of lines people dream about. We spoke with Nick Trimble, Co-Owner, Founder, and Logistics Manager, as he has been involved in the ski and snowboard industry for over 30 years. Heli-skiing is using a helicopter as your “chairlift” so you can access big-mountain backcountry terrain that you simply cannot reach at a resort. Instead of lapping groomers or crowded bowls, you’re flying into remote alpine zones, landing on ridgelines, and skiing or riding long, sustained pitches of untracked Alaskan powder. What makes heli-skiing with SEABA different is scale and intimacy - the terrain footprint stretches roughly…

THE GOOD A big takeaway was that it was a healthy year. I was able to enjoy the thing that I love all year long and to stay healthy. I was proud that I was able to take care of my body. I was really proud with how I worked my ass off all off-season. Having that peace of mind where I have left no stone unturned leading into my 4th Olympics at the age of 32, I just want to know that I did everything that I can and I left it all out there! When things don’t go well, I think that something that I always want to improve on is not bringing that baggage and just moving forward. Leading with love, a clean mind, always pushing forward…
