Apex Ambassadors

JD CVETICH

I grew up skiing in Washington state.  I’m currently a third year student at Western Washington University and consider Mt. Baker Ski Area my home mountain.  In the summer months, I work as a commercial fisherman in Bristol Bay, Alaska.  My passions lie in adrenaline seeking and the thrill of adventure.

GLENN WILD

I’m 26 years old and was raised in State College, PA. I have lived in Lake Tahoe since 2021 and have since discovered my passion of skiing and being in the mountains. My Favorite place to ski is formerly known as Squaw Valley now known as Palisades Tahoe.

SAMMY OLSEN

Being born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah I dabbled in snow sports. But it wasn't until my step dad became a part of our family and introduced me to his love for skiing that got me hooked. For the last 12 years, I've been spending most my time skiing pow in the Cottonwood Canyons. When I'm not skiing, you'll most likely find me paragliding off mountains, biking in Southern Utah, or traveling around in my 1989 camper van! Besides my love for outdoor adventures, I am also passionate about introducing new faces into the outdoor community and sustainability.

Benjamin Gallagher

Heyo! I'm a big fan of gravity assisted fun. I strap slices of tree to my feet and slide down fluffy water on top of big rocks. I grew up skiing in Jersey but moved to Utah to be a pro ski bum and call Powder Mountain my home now. Follow my journey to ski at every ski resort in North America.

Mariah Scherlacher

Hey there, my name is Mariah!  I'm originally from the East Coast, but recently chased a dream to move to the PNW.  I skied here and there as a kid but didn't dive back into it until a couple of years ago.  Throughout my photography career, I would shoot snow sports along with various other art forms, and always loved capturing style in unique ways.  Now that I live in Boise, ID, I'm right at the base of Bogus Basin, where I'll be skiing for the majority of the season with a hope to push myself and refine my skills even more, both as a skier and an artist.  I'm passionate about supporting brands I believe in, and really enjoy connecting with authentic people throughout life.

Gabe Dickerson

I'm an 18 year old from Pocatello Idaho and grew up skiing Pebble Creek, and Grand Targhee Resort. I am a freshman at Montana State University so Bridger Bowl is my new home mountain. The adrenaline burst I get from skiing is the best feeling in the world, and that's why I love it so much. See you on the mountain!

Nikolai van Dillen

I'm 19 years old, born in Michigan but raised in Northern Italy, where my family first introduced me to skiing at 4 years old. We spent countless ski trips exploring the Alps in Italy, Austria, and Switzerland, and my love for skiing has only grown. Now based in Austria, I pick my ski spots based on snowfall across the Alps, always chasing the freshest powder.

Kevin Blanc

I was raised in the European central Alps. For the last 12 years I have been traveling around the Freeride world tour qualifier competition, UK freeride competition with the Scottish freedom session.

Home Mountain(s): Alps and Pyrenees.

Fun Fact: Now I am creating some video content and photography work in the Alps and Pyrenees.

Tim Sperle

I grew up on the slopes of Carinthia, Austria, where I started skiing at the age of three. Now living in Innsbruck, I’m drawn to Tyrol's backcountry, spending most of my time freeriding and searching for the best lines. My favorite spot is St. Jakob in Defereggen, and I’m passionate about capturing unforgettable moments on the mountain with my drone.
