21 Gun Salute

Canada | Active public archive: 2019-present | Known for: BC Park and Pipe Team, big air, slopestyle, 21 Gun Salute, Cardrona ANC podium | Current: Canadian freestyle skier and shop rider Cardrona Big Air In Spring Snow The jump at Cardrona was firm under New Zealand spring light, with international riders taking three attempts and judges counting the best two scores. Bryce Menning’s clearest early result came there, not in a viral clip, but in a sanctioned big air contest where he put Canadian tricks onto an overseas landing. Menning is a Canadian freeskier with a verified FIS profile, a BC Park and Pipe Team background, and a video archive that links him to Grouse Mountain and Seymour sessions....

North Shore ski scene | Active public archive: 2021 | Known for: 21 Gun Salute, Grouse Mountain and Seymour footage | Current: crew-video skier Chris Grillman appears in 21 Gun Salute, a 2021 Harukivanv ski video built around Grouse Mountain and Seymour Provincial Park. The project places him in a North Shore freeski setting with Lochlan Wilson, Bryce Menning, Evan Friesen, Simon Burns, Ryder Bartlet, Marcus Vanheyst, Joel Macnair, Haruki van Veenendaal, Thomas Cok, Ronan Hoey and other riders. That context points to a skier connected to local park, rail, street and mixed-terrain filming rather than a formal contest pathway.... Read more on the Athlete page

North Shore ski scene | Active public archive: 2021-present | Known for: 21 Gun Salute, WTRP: Grouse, Exit Strategy, skier-filmer work | Current: crew-video skier and filmer Grouse Snow With A Camera In Hand The park line at Grouse Mountain was still holding together under coastal snow, with riders dropping between fog, soft takeoffs, and the sound of skis crossing metal. Evan Friesen’s public ski archive begins in that practical North Shore setting, where the filmer is often also one of the skiers. Friesen is not documented as a major FIS, X Games, Olympic, or World Cup athlete.... Read more on the Athlete page

Canada | Active public archive: 2021-present | Known for: Grouse Mountain clips, Seymour filming, 21 Gun Salute, CHEF sessions | Current: skier-filmer and visual creator Grouse Fog With A Camera In The Rotation The park at Grouse can disappear into fog fast: wet snow under the skis, city lights below, and a rail line that has to work before the visibility changes. Haruki Van Veenendaal’s public ski archive belongs to that kind of North Shore session, where the skier and the filmer are often the same person. His profile is not built around FIS results, X Games starts, or Olympic qualification.... Read more on the Athlete page

Vancouver, British Columbia | Active FIS athlete: Joel MACNAIR, born 2002, FIS Code 2539181 | Public record: Whistler Freeski Team, Freestyle BC, Canadian Nationals, Mammoth, Stoneham, Whistler Blackcomb, HEAD/TYROLIA film appearance | Main lane: slopestyle, Big Air, park edits Mammoth When The Draw Tightened The Mammoth slopestyle course in March 2025 carried the dry scrape of spring takeoffs, with a North American field stacked from the first name to the last. Joel MacNair finished eighth, between Bruce Oldham and Jude Oliver, on a result sheet led by Keagan Supple, Anders Chapman, Alexander Henderson, Henry Townshend, Hugh MacMenamin, and Campbell Burrows. S.... Read more on the Athlete page

Canada | Active public archive: 2018-present | Known for: Freestyle Whistler, halfpipe, BC Park & Pipe Team, Grouse and Seymour clips | Current: active freestyle skier Mt. Hood Summer With The BC Pipe Crew The snow on Mount Hood in September carried the soft, repetitive rhythm of summer park skiing: salted takeoffs, fast pipe walls, and rails hit again until the camera had the clip. Lochlan Wilson’s public ski archive starts to make sense in that environment, between structured freestyle training and crew-video culture.... Read more on the Athlete page

British Columbia, Canada | Active: 2021-present public video record | Known for: dirt skiing, brown pow, GoPro POV, British Columbia freeride clips | Current: skier, mountain biker and North Shore trail crew member Brown Pow Above The Bike Line The dirt chute in British Columbia looked more like a mountain-bike trail than a ski run: loose dust, narrow corners, exposed grass and no snow to soften the exit. Marcus Vanheyst dropped in anyway, skis rattling over the surface while Alexandre Chapellier followed close behind on a mountain bike. That clip explains his public ski identity better than a contest result ever could.... Read more on the Athlete page

North Shore ski scene | Active public archive: 2021 | Known for: 21 Gun Salute, Grouse Mountain and Seymour footage | Current: crew-video skier Ronan Hoey appears in 21 Gun Salute, a 2021 Harukivanv ski video built around Grouse Mountain and Seymour Provincial Park. The project places him in a North Shore freeski setting with Lochlan Wilson, Chris Grillman, Bryce Menning, Evan Friesen, Simon Burns, Ryder Bartlet, Marcus Vanheyst, Joel Macnair, Haruki van Veenendaal, Thomas Cok and other riders. That context points to a local crew-video skier rather than a formally documented contest athlete.... Read more on the Athlete page

Canada | Active public archive: 2021-present | Known for: Whistler Blackcomb Freestyle Ski Club, slopestyle, big air, 21 Gun Salute | Current: developing freestyle skier Whistler Snow Under A Young Big Air Path The jump line at Whistler Blackcomb can feel sharp in spring light: fast inruns, cold edges, and a landing that asks for commitment before the skier leaves the lip. Ryder Bartlett’s public record sits in that development space, between club freestyle, big air contests, slopestyle starts, and early crew-video credits. Bartlett is a Canadian freeskier with an official FIS profile, Whistler Blackcomb Freestyle Ski Club affiliation, and a short but useful video archive.... Read more on the Athlete page

North Shore ski scene | Active public archive: 2021 | Known for: 21 Gun Salute, Grouse Mountain and Seymour footage | Current: crew-video skier and filmer Simon Burns appears in 21 Gun Salute, a 2021 Harukivanv ski video built around Grouse Mountain and Seymour Provincial Park. The project credits him both as a filmer and as one of the skiers, placing him in the same North Shore freeski setting as Lochlan Wilson, Chris Grillman, Bryce Menning, Evan Friesen, Ryder Bartlet, Marcus Vanheyst, Joel Macnair, Haruki van Veenendaal, Thomas Cok and Ronan Hoey. The confirmed context points toward a skier-filmer connected to local park, rail, street and mixed-terrain footage rather than a documented contest athlete.... Read more on the Athlete page

Urban ski resort above North Vancouver | Known for: The Cut, floodlit night skiing, Side Cut Park handle tow, five named terrain-park zones, skyline views, North Shore snowmaking, and fast access from downtown Vancouver | Season: winter into spring depending on conditions | Best for: park progression, after-work laps, rail crews, night filming, beginner-to-intermediate freestyle, and Vancouver-based ski content The Peak Of Vancouver And A City-Side Ski Hill Grouse Mountain sits directly above North Vancouver, close enough to the city that the resort feels less like a destination trip and more like a winter extension of daily life. The official winter offer lists 33 ski and snowboard runs, 15 night runs, 4 chairlifts, 6 terrain parks, 9 km of snowshoe trails and the North Shore’s most extensive snowmaking system. That combination defines the mountain: modest scale, high convenience, strong lighting and a real park-progression structure.... Read more on the Location page

North Vancouver winter zone inside British Columbia's Coast Mountains | Known for: Mt Seymour Resort, city-facing snow, terrain parks, BC Parks winter routes, and quick access from Vancouver | Season: resort and backcountry use from winter into early spring depending on snow | Best for: park laps, night skiing, snowshoe access, and cautious backcountry touring above the city Fifteen Kilometres From Downtown Vancouver To Winter Terrain Mount Seymour Park, commonly searched as Seymour Provincial Park, begins on Mount Seymour Road in North Vancouver, about 15 kilometres northeast of downtown Vancouver via the Second Narrows Bridge and Mount Seymour Parkway. That short distance defines the place. A skier can leave the city grid, climb into the North Shore Mountains, and reach a winter trailhead or resort parking lot without committing to a full Sea to Sky road trip....
