CEO MESSAGE 

Over the last 12 months the CFSA has had 

some tremendous success and faced some 

extremely difficult challenges. We stand on the 

brink of one of the most exciting and 

challenging times in our sport's history. 

Last season our athletes had a very successful 

campaign with 12 different athletes winning 35 

World Cup medals, two World Cup Champions 

in Jenn Heil and Steve Omischl and the coveted 

Nations Cup. 

To ensure continued strength of results we need 

a large pool of athletes, quality programs and 

officials, facilities, profile, and funding … in short 

we need everyone in the organization to be 

focused on the delivery of their critical part of 

the success puzzle. To this end we are seeing 

some great progress. 

With passion and hard work, two organizations 

within our ranks took the initiative and created 

new water ramp training facilities in Grande 

Prairie, AB and Lac Beauport, QC. These will 

create a legacy of many more future champion 

athletes but more importantly demonstrates the 

kind of “can do” attitude that we must adopt as 

an organization to ensure our future success 

towards 2010 and beyond. 

Our grassroots program is growing and we 

have a passionate, dedicated and active group 

of club level volunteers. With a new sponsor for 

our entry level program, RBC Financial Group, 

we expect this to become the breeding ground 

for the next generation of World and Olympic 

Champions. 

New sponsors have come onboard, and 

traditional supporters continue to provide us 

with both financial and moral support. In the 

last 12 months we have signed two new team 

sponsors … RBC Financial Group and Bell 

Canada. Our long-time sponsor Canada Post 

continues to provide incredible backing. 

Spyder, Auclair/Paris Glove, Ericsson and many 

others also continue to provide great support. 

Over the next six seasons we will have 3 World 

Championships, the 2006 Olympic Games in 

Torino, and of course the 2010 Olympic Winter 

Games in Vancouver. This time will not be 

without challenges and ever increasing 

competition from many sides. In order to 

ensure success we need to rededicate 

ourselves to creating the best program in the 

World and to expanding our programming and 

support to the new World Cup disciplines of 

SkiCross and Halfpipe. 

Most of all however, we have to focus on the 

athletes in our program. They are an incredible 

group of young people who represent their 

sport, their sponsors, their country, and 

themselves with grace and passion. They have 

the capacity to win…we need to continue to 

give them the tools to do so. 

I look forward to working with all of you to 

ensure that this keeps happening. 

Sincerely, 

Peter Judge 

CEO, Canadian Freestyle Ski Association

GIVING BACK 

In the history of Freestyle skiing, the 

Canadian program has been 

blessed with exceptional athletes 

who have delivered impressive 

results throughout almost three 

decades. Canadian aerialists have 

proven year after year that they are 

among the best Freestyle skiers in 

the world…but what happens to 

these athletes upon retirement from 

high performance competition? 

Where do they turn their attention 

when they hang up their skis? 

In recent years, many retired 

athletes have remained committed to 

the development and promotion of 

Freestyle Skiing in Canada. 

Involvement runs anywhere from participation at 

fundraising events, coaching children, sport 

journalism, clothing lines, Freestyle camps, and 

volunteering their time and knowledge to events 

and organizations at the local, provincial, national 

and international levels. 

In 2003, after a remarkable career in aerial 

skiing, Nicolas Fontaine retired from 

competition. This 34 year old aerialist from 

Magog, Quebec represented Canada from 

1990 to 2003, amassing 36 World Cup medals, 

a World Championship title, 4 World Cup titles, 

and a silver medal at the 1992 Olympic Winter 

Games (demonstration). Upon retiring, 

Every now and then, 

people go above and beyond… 

Jeff Bean, Nico Fontaine, Dmitriy Kavunov 

and Steve Omischl celebrate the opening of 

the Centre National Yves LaRoche 

Fontaine was asked what he would do, now that 

his Freestyle career was over. 

“For me, I knew I wasn't done yet,” said 

Fontaine. He had one more thing to 

accomplish, and that was to see the creation of 

a world class training facility in Canada. 

“Building a water ramp in Quebec became a 

dream and a goal of mine in 1996, when I saw the 

destruction of Yves' (LaRoche) original ramp.” 

Approximately four years ago, 

parents and former freestylers came 

together after the Quebec 

government announced a financial 

commitment to a National Training 

center in the Quebec area. Fontaine 

joined this committed group which 

was led at the time by former 

Freestyler and television producer 

Dominic LaRoche, who was the first 

to join a committee that would see to 

the creation of a new water ramp in 

Lac Beauport, QC. 

By the time Fontaine retired from 

competition in 2003, there was a well 

established group in place, lobbying 

federal, provincial, and municipal 

governments as well as corporate support to 

raise the $1.5 million necessary to build a top 

notch training facility that would rival all others. 

This group, led by Réal Robichaud (president) 

Jean-Sébastien Montminy (General Manager) 

and Dominic LaRoche, shared a vision to create 

a facility that would allow Canadian athletes to 

remain in Canada during the off-season, and 

not compromise their training as they prepare 

for the following competitive season. Fontaine 

was assigned to the technical aspects of the 

ramp based on his unprecedented knowledge 

of other facilities. 

4

“For much of my career, I spent my summers in 

Lake Placid, New York, because Canada just 

hadn't kept up with the technical improvements 

that other water ramps were boasting. I have 

been to Lake Placid, Park City, Blackcomb, 

Evian, SUI, Austria, and recently helped Ales 

Valenta (2002 Olympic Gold medalist) design the 

ramp in the Czech Republic. I also helped with 

the design of the ramps in Grande Prairie, AB.” 

Fontaine finally saw his dream realized this 

spring, with the opening of the National 

Freestyle Training Centre Yves LaRoche. The 

training centre is named after Fontaine's longtime 

friend and mentor, Yves LaRoche, who 

was one of the best aerialists ever to come out 

of Canada. LaRoche suffered a serious 

accident paraponting in Europe over fifteen 

years ago, resulting in physical disabilities. 

“Yves was the founder of first ramps in Lac 

Beauport. He was one of the best athletes 

ever, and is responsible for bringing the sport to 

where we are now. Many athletes have 

succeeded due to his facility, his coaching, and 

most of all, his inspiration. After his accident he 

never gave up, and he showed that 

determination once again this summer every 

time he came and jumped at the ramp!” 

The training centre, located in Lac Beauport, 

Quebec, is quickly gaining the reputation as the 

“place to be” next summer. Members of the 

Canadian Freestyle team who were on hand for 

the opening raved about the facility, suggesting 

that there is no longer any reason to leave 

Canada for water-ramp training. 

As for Fontaine, it's highly doubtful that his 

involvement and passion for Freestyle skiing 

will come to an end any time soon. Like many 

who have gone before him, Fontaine continues 

to serve as an inspiration for young Freestylers 

and a role model for other athletes who may 

wonder where to turn their attention when their 

competitive days are done! 

A new facility in the 

West - parents making it 

happen in Alberta… 

When Grande Prairie's Jim Francis and Bill 

McLelland sat one afternoon watching their 

kids launch themselves off the Red Deer water 

ramp, they asked themselves “how hard can it 

be to build a ramp in Grande Prairie?” 

Francis laughs about it now, suggesting there 

is merit to the old adage, “ignorance is bliss!” 

But after hard work, tremendous commitment 

and a never-give-up attitude, Grande Prairie 

hosted the opening of a new state-of-the-art 

development ramp designed to train freestyle 

ski and snowboard athletes in aerial and 

inverted manoeuvres. 

Although it is not big enough to meet highperformance 

requirements, it will serve as an 

essential component to the development of the 

sport. Located at Nitehawk Ski Area in Grande 

Prairie, Alberta, the project was partnered with 

Nitehawk Ski Area and Northern Extreme 

Freestyle who operate the ramp facility. The 

ramp was a jointly funded venture by the City 

of Grande Prairie, County of Grande Prairie 

#1, MD Greenview, the Province of Alberta 

and local businesses. 

Congratulations go out to the Northern 

Extreme Freestyle Club for all of their efforts, to 

Nite Hawk for hosting the ramp, to all of those 

suppliers and sponsors and most importantly, 

to the volunteers who put in so much 

dedication to make the dream a reality!

LEXICON ON MOGULS 

Single Moguls 

Olympic discipline 

Speed, turns and air... 

Mogul skiing is probably the most accessible of 

the Freestyle disciplines and is one of the most 

exciting and spectacular of all winter sports. 

Everyone who skis has had to negotiate bumps 

or moguls at some point and knows how challenging 

they can be. The incredible skill, athleticism 

and courage of the world's top mogul 

skiers makes it look easy, as they race straight 

down the fall line at lightning speeds. The top 

skiers are covering as many as four moguls per 

second!!!! 

The Course 

Average length is between 200 and 270 metres 

with an average steepness of 26 degrees. 

Moguls are set approximately 3.5 metres apart. 

Course includes two Air bumps which are used 

as take-off for jumps/ aerial manoeuvres. 

Judging 

Competitors rip down the 29-degree (give or 

take a degree or two) mogul course and launch 

themselves off two jumps on the way down 

under scrutiny of a panel of seven judges. 

Marks are awarded for the technical quality of 

the skier's turns (50%), the two upright aerial 

manoeuvres (25%) and speed (25%). While 

speed is a factor, the fastest skier across the 

finish line does not necessarily win. 

Competition Format 

Competitions are either: 

a) Qualifying round with a single descent, 

followed by a final featuring the top 12 

from the first round. 

b) Best of two runs. 

Dual Moguls 

World Championship discipline 

Head-to-head action... 

In Dual Moguls, competitors race head-to-head 

in knock-out rounds. The added adrenaline of 

racing side-by-side means skiers often push 

themselves beyond their limits, resulting in either 

spectacular crashes or some of the most awesome 

bump skiing you will ever see. Results 

from the Dual Moguls competitions on the FIS 

World Cup tour are combined with Single Moguls 

results to determine the overall World Cup Mogul 

Champion at the end of each year. 

Judging 

As with Single Moguls, a panel of seven judges 

award marks for turns, speed and air, deciding 

by a show of panels who will go forward to the 

next round. Again the fastest skier over the finish 

line is not necessarily the winner. 



a) Single run qualification round (as per single 

Moguls) to seed the Duals, which 

would usually be sixteen pairs of Duals or; 

b) Elimination rounds of the entire field of 

competitors based on seeding from 

either the results of a prior Dual competition 

or a prior Single Moguls competition. 

Lingo 

• Back scratcher: Skiers scratch their backs 

with parallel tails of their skis. Knees bend 

under torso (ski tips drop under body), and 

hips lean forward with a countermotion of the 

shoulders (as if feet are trying to scratch the 

back). 

• Daffy: Splits — legs are widely spread, one in 

front, one behind. Front ski tip up, back ski tip 

down, with skis parallel. 

• Iron cross: Ski tips cross as skier remains 

upright. Tips drop, but heels are kicked to 

either side. 

6

• Kosak: Combination of spread eagle and 

zudnik. See zudnik and spread eagle. 

• Spread Eagle/Spread: Starting position for 

making snow angels: arms extended and legs 

split, usually 90 degrees or more to the side. 

• Twister: Skis twist 90 degrees to one side of 

the body, while hands and arms may counter 

the twisting skis — with core of body 

remaining upright and facing down the hill. 

• 360: Upright aerial spin of 360 degrees often 

called a helicopter or chopper. 720 = Double 

helicopter. (when viewed from the side). 

• Mute Grab: 360 with an Iron Cross Back 

Scratcher in the middle (often referred to as a 

“Heli-Mute”). 

• Off axis: A true flip is one that turns around 

the horizontal (zero degree) axis. A true spin 

is one that turns around the vertical (90 

degree) one. An off-axis spin or flip is one 

that deviates from these norms. 

• D Spin: A back flip with an off axis full twist 

• Back full: A back flip with a full twist both true 

to the "normal" axes 

• Lincoln Loop: old school brought into new 

school - a sideways flip 

• Grab: Any part of the ski or binding that is 

grabbed by the hand - there are Tail, Mute, 

Japan and Toxic grabs in addition to a whole 

mess of others, all which add "flavour" to the 

tricks. 

• Rodeo: Backwards initiated off-axis flip 

• Flat Spin: Another off axis trick where the 

skier looks like they are spinning like a 

horizontal wheel. 

• Mysty: Forward initiated off axis flip 

• Corked: This is when a flip and spin are kind 

of blended into one. A trick becomes Super 

corked when the feet go above the horizontal 

plane of the head. 

• Switch: Taking off a jump backwards 

• Fakie: Landing backwards 

Men Mogul Stars 

• Janne Lahtela, Finland. 2002 Olympic Champion and 

1998 Olympic silver medalist. Winner of the 2004 

Overall World Cup mogul title, Lahtela leads a strong 

Finnish mogul team that includes Mikko Ronkainnen 

(2001 and 2003 World Champion). Winner of five 

World Cup events- last season, and on the podium a 

total of 9 times in 14 starts, Lahtela continues to 

dominate the men's World Cup mogul scene. 

• Pierre-Alexandre Rousseau, Canada. Traditionally 

ranked among the top-three mogul skiers in the 

world, Rousseau finished an uncharacteristic 6th 

overall for the 03-04 season. Rousseau completed 

the 03-04 world cup tour with back-to-back podium 

performances and proved once again that he is 

among the world's best. Silver medalist at the 

2001 FIS World Freestyle Ski Championships. 

• Toby Dawson, Jeremy Bloom, Travis Cabral and 

Nathan Roberts, USA. Members of a strong US 

team that took 2nd through 5th positioning in the 

overall world cup mogul standings last season. 

Dawson finished 2nd overall behind Lahtela with 3 

world cup wins while Bloom, Cabral and Roberts 

finished 3rd through 5th respectively and each 

captured a world cup win throughout the season. 

• Mark-André Moreau, Canada. A rookie on the 

Canadian mogul squad, Moreau captured his firstever 

world cup win in Mt. Tremblant, Quebec last 

season to join the ranks of Canadian mogul 

legends like Jean-Luc Brassard, Stéphane Rochon, 

and PA Rousseau. Moreau finished an impressive 

10th overall in his first season on the world cup tour. 

Women Mogul Stars 

• Jennifer Heil, Canada. 2004 World Cup overall 

women's mogul champion. Heil made history last 

season by becoming the first Canadian woman ever 

to capture a world cup mogul title. Heil was on the 

podium 9 of 14 events, including 3 World Cup wins. 

2001 World Cup Rookie of the Year. Placed 4th at 

the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, missing the 

podium by 1 one-hundredth of a point. 

• Kari Traa, Norway. 2002 Olympic Champion, 2003 

FIS World Freestyle Ski Champion, and ranked #1 

in the world from 2000-2003. Traa finished 2nd 

last season behind Heil, but still managed a total of 

5 world cup wins and 7 podium performances. 

Known for her aggressive style of skiing and her 

impressive upright triple maneuvers in the mogul 

course, Traa has been credited as the competitor 

who has pushed women's moguls to the next level. 

• Hannah Kearney & Shannon Bahrke, USA. 

Kearney was the top US female mogul skier last 

season, finishing 4th overall and capturing 2 world 

cup wins late in the season. Bahrke was the silver 

medalist at the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, and 

remains one of the top competitors in women's 

moguls, finishing 5th overall last season. 

• Stéphanie St. Pierre, Canada. Bronze medalist at 

the 2003 FIS World Freestyle Ski Championships, 

marking the first Canadian women's World 

Championship single mogul medal since Bronwen 

Thomas in 1993. Was off to an impressive start 

last season with a World Cup win in Mt. Tremblant, 

Quebec as well as 2 bronze medal performances. 

St-Pierre did not finish the season due to a 

recurring knee injury, resulting in an 8th place 

ranking for the 03-04 season. 

• Margarita Marbler, Austria. Claimed the 2003 World 

Cup dual mogul title, and placed 3rd in the World 

Cup single mogul standings for the last two 

consecutive seasons. Marbler's season included 2 

world cup wins, and 8 podium performances.

LEXICON ON AERIALS 

Aerials 

Olympic discipline 

Aerials is not for the faint of heart. At the 

National Team level, competitors hit the jumps 

or 'kickers' at speeds of 60+ km/h, launch themselves 

some 20 metres in the air and perform 

up to triple back somersaults with up to five 

twists, landing on a steep landing hill most people 

would be nervous just skiing down. These 

are the most difficult manoeuvres performed in 

any 'gymnastic' sport. 

Judging 

Competitors must perform two different jumps 

consisting of single or multiple somersaults with 

or without twists. Each jump must vary by one 

somersault or one twist. Points are awarded for 

take-off (20% of score), form in the air (50% of 

score) and landing (30% of score). Scores of 

both jumps are added together for a final mark. 



a) A two jump qualification round with a two 

jump 12-person final the next day or 

b) A one jump qualification round with a one 

jump final for the top 12 men and women or 

c) (at the lower levels) each competitor gets 

two jumps. Results in either format are combined 

score of the competitor's two jumps. 

Examples of jumps 

Singles 

• Back Layout (DD — 2.05, bL): Single flip 

in straight body position. 

• (Back) Full (DD — 2.30, bF): Single flip 

with full twist should be done in the layout 

position. 

• Double Full (DD — 2.70, bdF): Single flip 

with two twists (used to be worth 2.65). 

Doubles 

• Back Lay-Tuck (DD — 2.60, bLT): Double 

flip with lay in first position, tuck in second 

position. 

• Double Layout (DD — 2.65, bLL): Double 

flip in the layout position. 

• Full-Tuck/Pike (DD — 2.85, bFT): Double 

flip with full twist on first flip. 

• Full-Double-Full (DD — 3.55, bFdF): Full 

twist on first flip, double twist on second. 

Triples 

• Full-Tuck-Full (DD — 3.75, bFTF): 3 flips 

with 2 twists, second flip is without twist. 

• Full-Full-Full (DD — 4.05, bFFF): One 

twist on each of the three flips. 

• Double Full-Full-Full (DD — 4.45, bdFFF): 

Quadruple-twisting triple somersault with 

2 twists on first flip and one twist on each 

of next two flips. 

• Full-Double-Full-Full (DD — 4.45, bFdFF) 

Quadruple twisting triple back flip with a 

double twist on the second flip.

THE NEXT WAVE 

Canadian up-and-comers: The 

next wave is talented, hungry, 

and setting their sights on 

Vancouver 2010! 

In less than six years, Canada will host the 

world at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in 

Vancouver, BC. Currently, Canada's World cup 

team is focussed on the 2005 FIS World 

Freestyle Ski Championships and the 2006 

Olympic Winter Games in Torino, Italy. 

Canada's Freestyle Ski team is young, 

motivated and successful, but there will no 

doubt be great pressure from below as we 

move toward Vancouver 2010. 

Among current Canadian greats like Steve 

Omischl, Jennifer Heil and PA Rousseau, there 

is also a motivated group of youngsters coming 

through the Canadian Freestyle system who are 

eager to be alongside their veteran team-mates 

come 2010. 

. 

The next wave - Moguls 

Michael Henitiuk 

Age: 15 

Residence: Calgary, AB 

At the age of just 13, Michael qualified for the 

Canadian Senior Freestyle ski championships. 

At 15, Michael remains with the Alberta Ski 

team this season. He is described by the 

Freestyle coaching community as a “hot hot” 

skier, who loves mogul skiing and will definitely 

be a contender in 2010. 


Alexandre Bilodeau 

Age: 17 

Residence: Rosemère, QC 

A talented athlete who since the age of 14 has 

been offered positions with both the aerial and 

mogul development teams, Alex elected to 

remain within the provincial system to secure a 

solid education. In 2003, he was the only 

athlete to compete in both moguls and aerials at 

the Canadian Senior Championships. At 17, 

Alexandre joins the Canadian mogul 

development team. With his strong aerials 

background, head D-team coach Michel 

Hamelin ranks him among the top jumpers (in 

moguls) on the World Cup circuit.

Audrey Robichaud 

Age: 16 

Residence: Val Belair, QC 

At 15 years of age, Audrey captured the 2004 

Canadian dual-moguls championships in Mt. 

Gabriel, Quebec last spring. Audrey began 

skiing at age 7 with the Club École Ski 

Acrobatique in Lac Beauport, Quebec, and has 

been water ramping ever since. With her strong 

jumping technique, her natural talent, and her 

determination, Canadian team coaches believe 

she will be one of the women to watch in the 

bumps as we approach 2010. 


Guillaume Turgeon 

Age 17 

Residence: Lac Beauport, QC 

New to the Canadian Development team, at 17 

Guillaume laid down a gold medal performance 

last spring to capture the 2004 Canadian dualmoguls 

title. Compared to mogul greats like 

Jean-Luc Brassard and Pierre-Alexandre 

Rousseau, head D-team coach Michel Hamelin 

calls Guillaume “a natural.”

Canadian Championships 

The next wave - Aerials 

New Initiatives 

In July of this year, the CFSA partnered with 

gymnastics BC to recruit retired gymnasts into 

the world of Aerials! Four young athletes were 

introduced to aerials on skis, and all four appear 

to have caught the bug! Having traveled to 

Whistler and experienced the thrill of water 

ramping, they are eager to pursue their 

newfound sport with mileage on snow this 

winter. Athletes involved included 14 year-old 

Alysia Simons from Richmond BC, Megan 

Drown (15) and Rebecca Graham (18) from 

Abbotsford, BC, and Brittany Hawkins (15) from 

Delta BC. 

Meanwhile, in Eastern Canada, young athletes 

participated in the aerial program at Lac 

Beauport's newest water ramp. Tyler(10) and 

Travis(13) Gerrits from Toronto, ON, worked 

with aerials legend Nicolas Fontaine for 5 

weeks last summer, and Fontaine referred to 

their development as “very impressive.” 

Included in this group of up-and-comers is 

Fontaine's 10 year old niece, Camille Lacasse, 

from Magog, QC.

Jeff Bean 

Date of birth: January 11, 1977 


Place of birth: Ottawa, ON 

Residence: Ottawa, ON 

• Ninth year as a World Cup team member. 

• Suffered a fractured vertebrae (C7) in training at the opening World Cup of the season this September in Buller, Australia, and as a result did not compete, but expects 

to be ready for competition in December. 

• After years of being ranked among the World's best, Bean placed a disappointing 17th on the 2003-2004 World Cup tour. “I learned a lot about myself last season, and am 

now feeling more prepared than ever. Sometimes it takes a “kick in the butt” to get things going!” 

• Highlight from last season: “What the season taught me!” 

• Captured the Canadian Championship title in March at Mt. Gabriel, Quebec. 

• Placed a controversial 4th at the 2002 Olympic Winter Games in Salt Lake City, after performing two of the best jumps of his career. “As a competitor, the Olympics 

could not have gone any better. I peaked at the right moment and did the two best jumps I had in me at the time. On a personal note, placing 4th hurt.” 

• Has been training in Lake Placid all summer but looks forward to preparing for the Olympics in Lac Beauport next summer. 

• Focus for the summer was on learning a new trick, Full-Triple full-Full (a quintuple twisting triple back flip) “So far so good. I'm ahead of where I had planned to be in 

my training. I won't compete it this season on snow, but will do a few to break the ice. In doing that, it reduces the difficulty in my head of all my other jumps.” 

• Missed most of the 99-00 World Cup tour after breaking his femur early in the season at the World Cup in Blackcomb. Bean underwent surgery in the summer of 2000, 

and discovered that he actually had a class four divot in his femur. Three days after surgery, Jeff was mountain biking. 

• Considers his attitude to be one of his greatest strengths. “I never get too high, or too low. This makes my training very consistent.” 

• Goal for the season: “Simple! Work as hard as I can and prepare for the 2006 Olympics. I know that if I do all I can… the results will come. 

• Is married to long-time girlfriend Lindsay Mullaly from Ottawa. “She is my role model. She has taught me so much about myself as a person, and was an integral part 

of my success at the Olympics in 2002.” 

• Is taking university courses working towards an arts degree with a major in law. 

• Enjoys mountain biking and trampoline, and is completely bilingual.

Placid for summer training 

• Goal for the season: “To fully recover and get up to my old form prior to my knee injury. I'm hoping to

and surfing behind motor boats!!” 

• Motto in life: “Do the important things to your fullest.”

my goals. I also really enjoyed Mt. Tremblant because my family and friends got to come out and 

watch. It's always great to have your home town supporters with you.” 

• Trained in Park City with the aerial team from April through to August, “It gave me lots of time to 

improve and learn new tricks on the water ramps.”

including D-spin, back full, 720, 360 mute grab and 720 X.” 

• Has competed in Freestyle for eight years. “When I joined, I had no idea what Freestyle was about,

me to stay in the sport.” 

• Enjoys mountain biking, swimming, and reading. “I am always excited to go to Whistler because 

there are some really great trails there. I am also a giant book worm. Reading a good book can 

make my week!!”

• Spent the summer training in Whistler, Australia and at home in Quebec. “This summer was very important for me to catch up on

Jim Schiman 



Place of birth: Kelowna, BC 

Residence: Cranbrook, BC 


• Returned to competition last season after suffering a serious knee (right) injury requiring 

surgery in 2002. Schiman achieved his goal last season of skiing as well as he did prior to his 

injury, in fact he was en route to his most successful season ever, capturing a World Cup win 

in Fernie BC, and placing second in Inawashiro, Japan, before he sustained yet another injury 

to his left knee in training while preparing for a World Cup in Airolo, SUI in February 04. 

• Schiman tore his patella tendon and acl, undergoing two surgeries this spring; March 8th to 

repair the tendon, and a second surgery May 13th to remove a wire that was put in to protect 

the tendon. He is now rehabbing in Whistler at Whistler Physio and looks forward to getting 

back to 100%. “The unfortunate thing for me is the timing of the injury. As a result, I'll be out 

for the entire 2004/05 season, so no World Championships yet again.” 

• Known for his aggressive “on the edge” style of skiing, which often results in either a great 

result, or a spectacular crash! 

• Is setting his sight on 2006: I'm going to spend this winter getting ready for the Olympic season. 

It leaves it pretty tight to qualify but I'll be healthy at least. 

• Believes his strengths are that he is technically sound with a positive outlook. 

• Interested in golf, building furniture, and environmentally sound buildings. 

• Future career plans? “PGA Champions tour!”
