Mike Cooper
I first fell in love with skiing at a very young age; growing up in Bexley, my mum was a ski instructor at the Woolwich dry slopes. This sparked a love of the sport, and I went on to visit the east coast of the USA and Val-d'Isère at a young age; since then, I have been hooked.
Number of Seasons
I spent two winters in Revelstoke between 2018-2020, where I was able to experience the best the province had to offer whilst training as a CSIA ski instructor.
Skiing Wisdom
Top Tip
Never be afraid to grab a lesson now and again - let's be honest, mistakes are rarely down to the skis you're using!
Best Skiing Moment
Cat-Skiing with Great Northern Cat in Trout Lake BC. One of the best ski experiences I could have ever had, with so much snow you’d need a snorkel.
My Favourite Resorts
Revelstoke
A paradise that truly has everything needed, from giant bowls to gnarly trees and stunning views. Not a resort for the beginner crowd, this is the resort for me when I want to channel my inner Sammy Carlson.
Val-d'Isère
Having spent most of my childhood skiing here, Val-d'Isère continues to be one of my favourite destinations in the Alps. I have very fond memories of its fantastic mountainside restaurants and downhill-style runs.
