David Wise
David Wise is one of skiing's premiere half pipe competitors. David's style of riding is graceful, stylish, powerful and fearless. The 2010/11 competitive season was a banner year for David. It was highlighted by winning the US Nationals, a 2nd place finish at the La Plagne World Cup Finals and his first appearances in finals at the Winter X Games in Aspen and
Tignes. At the Snowbasin Winter Dew Tour, David made history when he became the first skier ever to land back to back double cork 1260s in a half pipe competition. David is a relentless worker and has a maturity beyond his years. Off the hill, David is an academic. His passion for reading and writing, have helped him develop into an eloquent interviewer. These
assets make David stick out from his peers and the focus of the media and fans. Now that half pipe skiing is an Olympic sport, David has his sights on Olympic glory, and is already beginning preparation for Sochi 2014. You can guarantee he will be there!
