KINGS & QUEENS: SIT-SKIER TREVOR KENNISON LAUNCHES CORBET'S COULOIR

Last winter numerous videos of mono-skiers pushing the boundaries went viral. Trevor Kennison of Winter Park, CO was one of these athletes, and his massive send over Corbetโ€™s Couloir at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, WY during the second annual โ€˜Kings & Queensโ€™ event quickly became iconic, and arguably garnered more attention than any other line of 2019โ€™s ski season.

Trevor has consistently inspired skiers around the globe, even before the Corbetโ€™s jump that made him famous in the skiing community. His attitude is something that should rub-off on us all:

โ€œI could be sitting in my wheelchair in my house or I could be out living my life. Iโ€™m going to go and live my life. Thatโ€™s what kind of person I am. Skiing has saved the quality of my life, mentally and physically. I find a purpose in it.โ€

In the above video, Trevor opens up about his life-altering injury and his journey to the Kings & Queens of Corbetโ€™s with Travis Rice and friends.

The inaugural โ€˜Kings & Queensโ€™ event in 2018 was a watershed moment that didnโ€™t seem like it could be bettered. 2019 totally blew that away, so we just canโ€™t wait to see what the third annual โ€˜Kings & Queens of Corbetโ€™sโ€˜ in February 2020 will bring.
