I'm Steele Spence and I'm 20 years old.
I was born and raised in Aspen, Colorado. Born in Aspen Valley Hospital.
Went elementary school all the way through high school.
That's where I learned how to ski ever since I was a little kid.
Mostly in high school I got into freeriding.
Started riding the park in Aspen.
The park was always perfect. It was a great place to train and learn.
Perfectly groomed. Super pipe and tons of rails.
This past year I got a chance to go to New York City.
I got a call from Matchstick Productions.
They said it snowed three feet of snow in New York.
We're heading out there to go hit some rails.
I told them I was down and hopped a plane the next morning.
Showed up with John McMurray.
We hopped on the subway, taxis, went to landmarks and parks and everything just trying to find rails.
Met a ton of people that were really cool.
In the Bronx especially, kids that had never seen anything like what we were doing.
