Cody Townsend, from the coast to the slopes
Born in the coastal town of Santa Cruz, California, Cody has been obsessed with skiing and the outdoors for as long as he can remember. His fluid style and apparent fearlessness have made him one of the most awarded free skiers in history.
The challenge and beauty of the mountains drive him to do what no one else had thought to try — like skiing the big ocean waves of Maui and climbing and descending all 50 of the great classic lines of North America.
From successful alpine ski racer to Hollywood stunt skier, his life has been dedicated to skiing, the mountains and the community that protects them. But it is his affable, joyful nature that has earned him his reputation as “The People's Skier”.
即將成為 The FIFTY 大師
由 2018 年起開始的多季節冒險之旅——THE FIFTY 是在 Cody 接觸到 Fifty Classic Ski Descents of North America 一書時所誕生。每一條精彩路線已經由不同的傳奇人物以登山或滑雪的方式所征服,但從未有人成功挑戰全部 50 條。一直到現在!
有了 Swatch 成為贊助商,Cody 一直在他的 YouTube 頻道上記錄了這個壯舉。現在來到由加州的 Split Couloir 拉開序幕的第 5 季,The FIFTY 已見證 Cody 征服了超過 40 條經典路線。
