Hi! I'm Graeme!
For the past 20 years, snowboarding has been my life! I have been involved in all parts of the snowboarding industry, from working in retail to tuning boards in the workshop to running demo days on the mountain.
From Snowboard Junkie to Instructor…
I now work as a snowboard coach in Verbier, Switzerland, where I have taught hundreds of people how to snowboard, and coached others to become snowboard instructors. I have trained under different snowboarding systems, including the British, Swiss, and New Zealand systems.
This has given me great insight into how to teach, and I now kind of have my own hybrid model where I pick the best bits from each system.
My Snowboarding Journey
My own snowboard journey has gone through different phases as well. I used to ride a lot of park and pipe, competing in local comps. I then got more into my freeriding when I moved to the epic mountains of Switzerland. And now, I like to venture deeper into the backcountry on my splitboard.
Although I'm now a bit washed up when it comes to freestyle, on a good day, I can still throw a few spins in the park and crank out a decent method!
I now call Switzerland home, but snowboarding has taken me all over the world, from as far south as New Zealand to as far north as Norway. Settling down in the mountains has always been a dream for me, and I can now share some of my knowledge about the sport I love through this website.
Get In Touch
I'm always interested to hear from other snowboarders, so if you would like to get in touch you can email me via our contact us page.
In the meantime, why not check out the snowboard size calculator to see if there's another awesome board you can add to your quiver! Happy shredding!
