Chasing the Good
One of the most talented athletes of our time, JT Holmes is an action sports star and has been considered a professional athlete since the age of 17. He’s pushed the boundaries of both extreme skiing and speedriding and helped pioneer and popularize ski-BASE jumping. Now, at 36, this self-described “adrenaline enthusiast” is still finding his edge atop some of the highest mountains and along the most formidable cliff faces, constantly challenging the status quo of human-powered adventure. Ironically, though, in a fast-paced environment with a nearly constant buzz of trip-and-trick-planning and execution, it’s in the quiet times that Holmes finds the most peace and meaning.
Holmes has experienced all that being an extreme athlete entails, including the highest of highs and the lowest of lows—the rush that comes with a successful ski-BASE stunt and the numbing low of losing a close friend on the proverbial playground. Despite these extremes, one thing is certain: for the past 21 years, Squaw Valley, California has been home.
When he’s home, rather than seeking burly lines and steep couloirs, JT Holmes relishes in the quiet moments in between his extreme passions. These rare moments, he says, are the most authentic source of payment for a life well lived.
