East Coast, USA | Active: 2015-present public video record | Discipline: Street Skiing, Creative Park and East Coast Jibbing | Known for: Keep Standing, Hypertunnel, Stand Corrected, Lappin’, SuperUnknown XVII
The Sugarbush park had East Coast speed under it: firm snow, quick takeoffs, and rails that asked for commitment before the first landing was visible. Andy Hoblitzelle appeared in Lappin’ 3.1 beside Sam Putnam, Matt Stackhouse, Chris Bechtold, Sawyer Sellingham, Rory Walsh, Linus Nygard, Will Deschenes and Chase Mohrman. The episode did not frame him as a contest athlete. It placed him exactly where his skiing makes sense: local laps, metal, friends, camera angles, and a park that rewards clean balance more than large rotation count.
Level 1’s SuperUnknown XVII gave Hoblitzelle one of his clearest public markers. The 2020 semi-finalist list included Andrew Hoblitzelle among the men’s wildcard candidates, with the public asked to vote for a spot at the Carinthia at Mount Snow finals. That matters because SuperUnknown is not built like a normal points contest. It rewards edits, feature choice, personality, style and the ability to make skiing read on camera.
Hoblitzelle did not win SuperUnknown, and the page should not imply that he did. The accurate point is narrower but still useful: his skiing reached a respected Level 1 selection stage. For a rider without a visible FIS or X Games résumé, that kind of platform carries real weight. It places him inside a video-driven tradition where one strong edit can travel farther than a local result sheet.
His public record reaches back before the Keep Standing projects. Newschoolers posted Andy Hoblitzelle 14/15 in 2015, with a shoutout to Nashoba Parks, Amplid skis and Yoshi Bs. Around the same period, a Style Showdown post described his skiing as a smooth collection of shots from around the country and noted the Amplid connection. Those are not major sponsor confirmations for the present day, but they show where his early identity sat.
The early footage points toward a park skier learning through rails, tubes, spring laps and road-trip clips rather than formal competition. That matters for the later street profile. Street skiing is rarely born from one big breakthrough. It usually comes from years of sliding metal, missing landings, carrying speed on bad snow, and learning how to make small features feel worth filming.
STAND, released by the Keep Standing crew in 2021, placed Hoblitzelle in a season-long street project with Jackson Doremus, Chris Bechtold, Matt Stackhouse, Sam Putnam, Sawyer Sellingham, Chase Mohrman, Dan Hatheway and others. Newschoolers described it as a humble contribution to East Coast street skiing, filmed and edited by Sam Putnam.
That phrase fits the project. East Coast street skiing has always had a rougher texture than polished park edits: short storms, crusty landings, awkward rails, fast urban sessions and crews working before the snow disappears. Hoblitzelle’s place in that world is not about one headline trick. It is about showing up in the same crews, the same streets, and the same winter rhythm where skiers build identity clip by clip.
Hypertunnel, released by Keep Standing in 2022 with support from Arsenic, Tall Truck, Tall T Productions and Anytides, brought Hoblitzelle into a larger street project. Downdays described the film as starting with eighties-video-game graphics, then quickly moving into a car-park drop, train-station stairs, giant features and technical skiing. The confirmed skier list included Jackson Doremus, Chase Mohrman, Sawyer Sellingham, Sam Putnam, Chris Bechtold, Matthew Stackhouse, Andy Hoblitzelle and Daniel Hatheway.
The project matters because it shows the scale of the crew’s ambition. A car-park drop or station stair line is not a controlled terrain-park rail. It asks for spot building, speed testing, impact tolerance, and trust in the people filming. Hoblitzelle’s inclusion places him inside a street crew willing to mix heavy setups with unrefined energy and technical rail work.
Ski The East gives another verified side of the record. Lappin’ 3.1 at Sugarbush listed Hoblitzelle among the skiers during a midwinter park session. Lappin’ 4.3 returned to Sugarbush with Andy Parry, Will Wesson, Simeon Glas, Reagan Wallis, Chris Bechtold, Andy Hoblitzelle, Bayard Baker, Con Starr and Jackson Doremus after the Tell a Friend Tour.
That crew context is important. Parry and Wesson carry deep East Coast and LINE Traveling Circus history, while Doremus, Bechtold and the Keep Standing names connect the current local scene. Hoblitzelle sits between those layers: not a headline star, but a recurring skier in the web-series ecosystem that documents how East Coast park skiing stays alive through laps, weather, friends and regional pride.
Stand Corrected kept the record current in 2024. Arsenic listed the project as a Keep Standing film with support from Arsenic Anywhere, Foam Brewers, Vishnu Skis, Icelantic Skis, Anytides and Tall Truck. The cast included Daniel Hatheway, Chase Mohrman, Jackson Doremus, Sam Putnam, Matt Stackhouse, Max Gingras, Chris Bechtold, Sawyer Sellingham, Will Deschenes, Kamil Obaid and Andy Hoblitzelle.
Freeskier described the features as intimidating or creative, with enough carnage to show that the riders were not choosing easy setups. That is the most accurate way to read Hoblitzelle’s recent visibility. He is part of a street-skiing crew where difficulty is often hidden in the setup: a bad run-in, a narrow rail, a blind landing, a wall that kicks too hard, or a feature that only works after hours of shoveling.
Super Sessions 2024, produced by Chase Mohrman and filmed by Oliver Hoblitzelle, adds another recent credit. The skier list included Jackson Doremus, Jake Mageau, Dan Hatheway, Oscar Weary, Ian King, Chris Bechtold, Sydney Smith, Andy Hoblitzelle, Harald Hellström, Tall T Dan and Sawyer Sellingham. That lineup connects him with both East Coast street riders and wider creative names.
The repeated Hoblitzelle surname also matters. Oliver Hoblitzelle appears as filmer, editor or media force across several projects, while Andy appears as a skier. The public record should not blur their roles, but the overlap helps explain the scene. This is not a single athlete operating alone. It is a network of skiers, filmers, editors and friends building small films that keep regional street skiing visible.
Hoblitzelle’s technical profile should stay tied to what the footage context supports: rails, tubes, drops, urban features, park laps, wallride-style terrain, stair setups, speed checks, 50/50 control, switch entries, pretzels, transfers and heavy landings. There is not enough verified public material to name a signature trick as if it defines his whole career.
The stronger read is stylistic. He belongs to the East Coast street lane where composure matters more than polish. The skiing is often low to the ground, quick over metal, and built around staying balanced when the feature changes direction. That kind of skiing does not always produce clean résumé lines, but it produces clips that make sense inside a crew movie.
Andy Hoblitzelle’s skipowd.tv page should stay modest and precise. He is not documented as a World Cup skier, X Games medalist, Olympic athlete or major standalone pro-film lead. The verified public profile is narrower: SuperUnknown XVII semi-finalist, Ski The East Lappin’ skier, Keep Standing crew presence, Hypertunnel, Stand Corrected, STAND, Super Sessions and recurring East Coast street/park credits.
That is enough for a 2/5 article because the story has real sources and a clear culture lane. Hoblitzelle’s value is not a medal count. It is his place in a regional freeski ecosystem built from Sugarbush laps, Mount Snow-era SuperUnknown visibility, Keep Standing street projects, Arsenic-supported edits, and the kind of metal-first skiing that keeps the East Coast scene documented beyond the headline names.
