Joel Whalen is a guy who can not only turn both ways and jump. He wants to look good on the mountain and wants to share his passion for fashion. Read up on what this kid from Fernie is all about.
Name : Joel Whalen
Age : 18
Where are you from : Fernie
Where do you Ski : Fernie
How have you dedicated your life to the mountains and adventure?
By Skiing Lots and doing super cool stunts with some style maybe a grab and laying down the fashion law for all the little kids by wearing doo rags on my XXL pants which compliments my XXL jacket with Yellow Accents (So Hot Right Now). And being super friendly to everyone and helping the little gromits out by giving them Advice and stuff to help improve thier steeze factor....cause gromits are the future of the sport and someone needs to point them in the right direction and usually I start by telling them not to cross their skis "cause that’s sooooooooo Candide Thovex" and that’s totally not fashionable.
Why have you dedicated your life to mountain pursuits?
Probably cause I lived in Saudi Arabia for a long time (I shit you not) and there is only big mountains of sand there, snowpants and parkas are definitely not very stylish there, not to mention the uncomfortability in the blistering heat. I like to wear snowpants and a cool jacket, a lot of times I don’t even go to the ski hill to ski i just want to look good and I’m willing to admit it, I just ski to make myself look even cooler. If someone told you they didn’t care what they looked like when they were skiing they are flat out lying. But I ski cause its fun and I can be Creative with my skiing and my fashion sense and I’m totally down with creativity. So if your under the age of 15 and are reading this make sure you show up to the hill in the illest outwear you can get your mommy and daddy to buy you throw a temper tantrum if you have to, it will be worth it in the end when the ski bunnies throw you wink and smile.
What are some things the mountains have taught you that have proven Valuable in the real world?
Ill tell you all something VERY VERY VERY VERY Valuable and you better ALL take this to you grave. Wear the coolest outerwear BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK GOOD, YOU"LL FEEL GOOD AND IF YOU FEEL GOOD, YOU’LL RIDE BETTER, AND IF YOU RIDE BETTER YOU’LL GET SPONSORED AND GET EVEN COOLER OUTWEAR (for free) and nothing can beat that. BELEIVE DAT! its only makes sense.
HOLLA!WORD!PEACE!
