Stoneham On The FIS Sheet



Stoneham, Quebec, entered Luke Gareau’s public record through two FIS lines in late February 2025. The page is not a film premiere or a sponsor announcement. It is a competition sheet: bibs, scores, rankings, and the hard format of judged freeski progression.

Gareau is listed by FIS as a Canadian freestyle skier with FIS code 2541189 and birth year 2007. His official record includes Nor-Am Cup starts at Stoneham Mountain Resort, where he placed 43rd in men’s freeski slopestyle on February 28, 2025, and 34th in men’s freeski big air on March 1, 2025. Those results define the strongest verified competition layer of his profile.



SilverStar Freestyle Before The Wider Field



Before the FIS results, Gareau appears in Freestyle BC and LiveHeats material connected to SilverStar Freestyle. The 2024 Freeski Canadian National Championships entry lists place him with SilverStar Freestyle in men’s slopestyle and men’s big air. In the men’s big air result, he is shown 25th, just behind Byron Lambert and ahead of Josef Burkhardt.

That club label is useful because it locates his development inside the British Columbia freestyle pathway rather than leaving him as a name on a standings page. SilverStar Freestyle sits in the Interior BC system, where park skiing, provincial events and Canada Cup-level starts can form the step before national FIS fields.



Whistler Big Air And Spring Contest Pressure



The clearest Whistler result on Gareau’s FIS page came on April 6, 2025. At Whistler-Blackcomb, he placed 24th in men’s freeski big air in a FIS event. The same results table shows Misha Litvinenko first, Jude Oliver second and Avery Macyk third, which gives context to the field around him.

That Whistler big air result matters more than a casual appearance because it sits in an official FIS event at one of Canada’s largest freestyle environments. Big air compresses skiing into one or two decisive jump choices. A rider needs speed control, takeoff accuracy, grab discipline, rotation control and clean landings with little room to hide behind the rest of a slopestyle course.



The Slopestyle DNS Detail



Gareau was also entered in the April 5, 2025 Whistler Blackcomb men’s freeski slopestyle event, but the FIS result lists him as DNS. That detail should stay in the profile because it prevents overstatement. His Whistler slopestyle presence is documented as an entry, not as a completed scored run.

The same event was won by Aidan Mulvihill, with Avery Macyk second and Henri Joyal third. For Gareau, the more concrete Whistler anchor is the following day’s big air result. The editorial frame should separate entry data from actual scoring data, especially for a developing athlete whose public record is still compact.



Luke Jude And The Video Trail



Gareau’s public ski identity is not only competition-based. Newschoolers lists him in “LUKE JUDE,” an April 2025 mcge3zy video credited as skiing by Jude Oliver and Luke Gareau. The listing is short, but it connects him to a Whistler-facing video circle already visible across several young rider edits.

That matters because Canadian park skiing often moves through two parallel records: official start lists and crew videos. FIS results show where a rider stands in judged fields. Edits show who they ski with, where they spend laps, and how their skiing circulates outside event infrastructure. Gareau’s current profile has both signals, even if the video documentation is still limited.



What His Skiing Record Actually Supports



The verified record supports a park-focused profile. Gareau appears in slopestyle and big air, not in freeride, moguls, halfpipe or ski cross. His available competition history points to rail-to-jump course skiing, jump-specific scoring and the Canadian development pathway through provincial and FIS events.

No verified trick list was found from official sources. That means the article should not invent cork directions, rail variations, sponsor claims or a signature style. The safest technical reading is discipline-based: slopestyle requires rail approaches, switch comfort, speed management, jump amplitude, grab clarity and landing control; big air narrows that test to one high-pressure feature.



Stoneham, Whistler And The Canadian Development Map



Gareau’s 2025 public record moves between Stoneham and Whistler Blackcomb, two very different Canadian contest settings. Stoneham gives a Quebec Nor-Am stop with structured park competition and a cold-season contest rhythm. Whistler brings spring timing, large-scale resort infrastructure and a Sea to Sky athlete network built around park, filming and national freestyle development.

Those locations help define the level of his current footprint. He is not documented as a World Cup podium skier, X Games athlete or Olympic contender. He is a Canadian developing freeski rider with official FIS starts, national-championship entries, a SilverStar Freestyle connection and a Whistler video credit.



The Next Facts To Watch



The most useful future updates would be additional FIS starts, completed slopestyle results, higher big air placements, confirmed club status, sponsor information from official channels, or more detailed video credits. Until those appear, Gareau’s profile should remain precise and modest.

Luke Gareau belongs in a ski archive as a documented Canadian park rider from the 2007 birth-year group, with FIS slopestyle and big air records from 2025, SilverStar Freestyle competition context in 2024, and a Whistler crew-video appearance beside Jude Oliver. That is enough for a factual emerging-rider page without turning a compact public record into a larger career than the sources currently support.
