Maude Raymond
Maude Raymond, born in 1987 in Montreal and now based in Mammoth Lakes, California, is a Canadian freeskier known for her smooth, creative, and elegant style, equally comfortable in the park, on groomers, or in the backcountry. She began with ski racing and diving before fully dedicating herself to freeskiing as a teenager, notably in Whistler. A member of the Armada team for over fourteen years, she shares her unique vision of the mountains through films, series, and artistic projects. After facing several serious injuries, she turned to content creation, with projects like her web series “Maad Maude,” and now focuses on explorative, expressive skiing. Today, she stands as an inspiring figure in women’s freeskiing, always seeking authenticity and freedom.
Mammoth Mountain
Mammoth Mountain is a ski resort located in California’s Sierra Nevada, reaching about 3,370 meters in elevation with a vertical drop close to 945 meters. It features 25 lifts and roughly 150 runs spread over more than 3,500 hectares. Thanks to heavy snowfall averaging over 10 meters annually combined with nearly 300 sunny days, the resort offers one of the longest seasons in North America, often running from October or November through June and sometimes beyond. Mammoth is renowned for its expansive terrain parks with multiple halfpipes, extensive backcountry areas, and its laid-back vibe. It regularly hosts top-level competitions like FIS Grand Prix events and serves as a training ground for many professional skiers and snowboarders.
