Get to know new skier, Riley Jacobs, this rookie is one to watch! 

Welcome to the Monster Army, how does it feel to be on the team?

Thank you so much it feels amazing to be a part of this amazing team. I am so grateful to be an athlete on this super cool program.

What are your 2020 plans/goals?

For 2020, I hope to travel to as many competitions as possible and my goal is to podium as much as I can in the Nor-Am events. I also want to continue to train to keep progressing my tricks and skills in both the halfpipe and slopestyle.

Name a trick you’re working on…

Right now in slopestyle I am working on my double. I was super close last season to landing my dub 10 but because the season ended too quickly and I never quite got there. In halfpipe, I am working towards a cork 9 as well.

When you have down time, what are you usually doing?

Generally, I don't get down time with my comp season and school but because of quarantine I have had a lot of it. I mostly jump on my trampoline and work on my backyard rail set up, any way I can get outside.

Favorite sport (besides yours)

My favorite sport outside of skiing is probably baseball because before I skied I was on a softball team when I was little. I also really enjoy going to Rockies games in Denver.

Favorite Food

My favorite food is most likely cookie dough ice cream. I feel like even when it's cold it's not too cold for ice cream.

What music do you listen to, to get you pumped?

When I want to get pumped I listen to Lizzo or Queen, their music just really gets me excited right before I compete.

What’s your go to chill tv show or movie?

My go to chill movies are most animated kids movies. I really like The Secret Life of Pets.

Any random fun facts we should know about you?

A random fun fact about me is I can pogo stick and jump rope at the same time and do it every year in my town's labor day parade.

(This is insane.) Thanks Riley!
