You find it in the lifelong blue-square cruiser. The four-year-old tyke making her first turns. The human-powered adventurer who traded season passes for an adventure dog and a pair of skins. The gate-crashing prodigy headed for Olympic gold. The grizzled sage who&#8217;s skied 100 days each winter for the past 40 years. The powder chaser. The freestyle punk. The mogul ripper. The rad dad. The badass mom. The weekend warrior. The mountain-town local. The gear nerd. The sporty endurance athlete. The lifty. The resort exec. The shop employee.<\/p>\n<p>The soul of skiing beats inside all of them. Sliding on snow is addictive. You might see it as a commodity. Or, it&#8217;s a way of life. Skiing offers freedom, therapy, adrenaline, reassurance, consistency, adventure, purpose, identity, belonging, healing. The skier&#8217;s journey is predictable yet unique. Idyllic yet consuming. Trivial yet vital. And for some, inevitable. Whether you build your life around it or just a weekend each year, you have a key. You&#8217;ve unlocked the world of winter in the mountains. You know the secret and you carry the torch.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers, and happy turns.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Powder7 Team<\/p>\n<p><em>Join the Powder7 community: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/powder7\/\">Instagram<\/a>\u00a0| <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/powder7skis\">Youtube<\/a>\u00a0| <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Powder7\/\">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.powder7.com\/\"><em>Shop our full inventory of ski gear<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video: Jake Burchmore | Words: Matt McDonald Skiing for All The soul of skiing takes countless forms.
