This shot never made it into a ski movie, yet it’s one of my favorite ski shots because of what it helped me understand about skiing. This line, in a zone called Velvet Curtain with @chugachpowderguides, was intimidating with several rollovers and a bergshrund at the exit, but I knew the snow was good. I was psyched to ski it. I dropped in the turns felt easy, the spine naturally guiding me where I wanted to go. At one point, I slowed down over a rollover but then could see my exit and found a slough-free runout. Skiing out the bottom, I was exhilarated—I’d finally skied a line I had dreamed about for years! I found out a few months later that the line didn’t make the movie. I wondered why, but ultimately the editor makes the movie and sometimes the line doesn’t fit. At the time I was disappointed, but by the time the following winter rolled around, I saw things differently. I realized that what mattered is that I wanted to ski the line and I skied it—that’s all. The feeling I had at the bottom of the line skiing out was mine, and it didn’t matter if anyone else ever saw it or not. It reminded me of why I had set out to ski big lines in the first place: simply because it was something I wanted to accomplish and a challenge to work towards. Over the years, skiing professionally, at times it’s been easy to get caught up in external factors like what others think or expect of me. However, the second half of my career, after losing people I love, recovering from injuries, becoming a parent, and other life changes, I’ve been re-learning how to approach skiing from a place of internal motivation, skiing for who I am now and what I want. It’s this ongoing process of constant learning that keeps me motivated. Clearly summer has me thinking too much. 😜 01 Jul 2026 This is my second run of the 2010 FWT contest at @palisadestahoe. The first run, thankfully not shown, I had been terrified to compete (since I was the one filming with @mspfilms at the time I wanted to show I was worthy!) and had picked a mediocre line and skied it even worse. I was in the back of the pack heading into the second run so I just figured what the heck, I’ll ski something just for fun, just for myself. I had seen Shane McConkey hit this air, and knew it had a high GNAR score in the Squallywood book by @robbgaffney, of which I had a signed copy and studied nonstop at the time. The rollover is major and intimidating and it took me a while to get down to where I could even see the takeoff, let alone the tiny landing. I tried my best to ignore the crowd and just focus on whether or not I could do this. I took my time and inched down until I knew I had it, took a deep breath, and dropped. The landing was super smooth and felt like I didn’t even take off—the best kind. Thanks to Robb for showing what was possible, in skiing and in life. My memories of Tahoe and this community are so amazing and a huge part of who I am today. ❀ 25 Sep 2023 For a long time in my ski career, when people I worked with would ask if I wanted to have kids, I would say “I’m not sure, I’m leaning towards maybe not.” Which wasn’t a lie exactly but it wasn’t the truth. The truth was that deep down I knew I hoped to have a family one day but I didn’t dare admit it to myself, let alone to anyone in the ski industry. To me at that time, something so simple as wanting kids seemed too basic, too predictably feminine, not badass, not hot, totally not cool and definitely career-ending. Despite being raised by a badass skier mom and knowing lots of other amazing moms who skied (like @jessaktahoe, @jennberg_ and @wendyfisher, to name a few), at that time I couldn’t see a viable path for me to be both a mom and a professional skier. If I could go back in time I would tell this version of myself two things: —sweet dance moves! sick one-piece! buy some bitcoin & sell it in November of 2021! 😉 —listen to yourself for what you want and go after it. Don’t feel like you have to squeeze into preconceived ideas of what is available to you, no matter if it’s cool or not. Footage from Claim by @mspfilms 10 May 2023 I might be biased, being from Washington and all, but I truly think the North Cascades is one of the most magical mountain ranges anywhere, and I’m excited to be hosting a trip at @northcascade_heli this winter!  Come join us for three days of guided heli skiing and three nights of lodging—plus catered meals and apres with me and the NCH team—in one of the most incredible locations.  More info at the link in my bio.

[ad] SkiWelt, @skiweltkaiserbrixental, translates literally to Ski World, and the magnitude of the skiing here is unbelievable.  We had an absolute blast as a family, working together to navigate the eight incredible ski areas, stopping for fun activities like the on-hill cinema and the witches of Söll, and eating at several of the 80 family-owned on-mountain restaurants.    When I’m skiing with my family, the journey is the destination. Austria was the absolute most incredible place to experience and we can’t wait to get back! @visitAustria #feelaustria #lebensgefĂŒhl #skiAustria #skiWelt 12 Oct 2026 Cramming for fall exams 🍁🍂🐛 06 Oct 2026 What an honor to meet and learn from Gerhart “Gert” Told, founder and ski school pioneer at KaiserKinderland, at @skiweltwilderkaiserbrixental, Austria. He has been skiing for over 78 years and teaching skiing for over 60 years.  He created a special kind of learning ski and multiple innovations to help kids play, practice, learn, and enjoy the mountain.  #ad The pride, care, and thoughtfulness he brings to his work is totally inspirational, and I had some real “aha” moments listening to him, especially the tip about don’t lead with asking if the equipment hurts–try to keep it neutral or positive–that could have come in handy a few times in the past!   I’m so grateful for our trip to Austria with @visitAustria, the family time and all the ways it helped us all learn and grow.  #lebensgefĂŒhl #skiAustria #skiWelt #skiweltwilderkaiserbrixental 30 Sep 2026 Fall weekends fueled by fair food, Peelerz, fabulous friends and many trail games of My Grandma’s Underpants. â€ïžđŸ§ĄđŸ’› 22 Sep 2026 September means Fall is here! This month we sit down with Chris Steinkamp, Executive Director of Mountain Towns 2030, to talk about how mountain communities are becoming the test labs for real climate solutions — from resilient infrastructure to the climate tech actually getting deployed on the ground. Malone also nerds out hard on geothermal energy, because obviously the onsens had to come up. We also break down the Mountain Towns 2030 Summit — Oct 13–14 in Sun Valley, ID — where 600+ people from 80 mountain communities and 50 ski resorts show up to build what's next for climate action in places like ours. Anyone can attend, not just industry — register at mt2030.org.
