That guy is amazing on those stix. What kind of wax you use for Dirt and Grass...? And, it must be hell on his ski sponsor.
I've been skiing since I could walk - tho snowboarding is more fun in super deep powder (particularly), as I've found - in the Vail Back Bowls. But I haven't gone to the mountains in 10 years or more. It is simply cost prohibitive. Additionally I wind up missing good surf traditionally. Expected or otherwise, I get real surf FOMO, and then I hear about it.

I know the kid getting worked in tje second video. No real youtube-justice for the spot. I'd like more footage of myself riding...but most of the material available is "the Bay" break, or small. 1forpeace may have clip that someone sent me a ways back - I would have to search for mine.

Candide does pretty well on water. Unfair tho' cause by the unified snow/waterski rules, I'm pretty sure that tropical water temps are forbidden. Warren Miller just passed on - or he'd be the authority to ask. I'd imagine that Candide would have worked with him at some point.
