[edit] Scot Schmidt

Scot Schmidt - born July 21, 1961 in Helena - is perhaps one of the world's most recognized skiers and the first ever professional extreme skier. His extraordinary talent has helped shape today’s ski industry, and has inspired lots of people! Scot started skiing professionally in 1983 in Squaw Valley. A Warren Miller (director) cameraman who had heard of Scot's relaxed style (how he did not look like he was winding up a window when jumping off cliffs) decided to approached him and asked him to appear in a movie they where filming called Ski Time. Ever since that movie he has appeared in 39 other ski movies. Scot is basically a pioneer of extreme skiing.
