Greetings! I'm Yura, a seasoned snow sports enthusiast and a mountain lover at heart. From the early days of my childhood in Ukraine, the snowy slopes called to me, leading me to develop a profound love for skiing and snowboarding. I've competed on a global stage, having participated in prestigious competitions like the Freeride World Tour. My dedication to snow sports isn't just limited to competitions; I also serve as a ski and snowboard rescuer at Alpental Resort here in Washington. Catching air off of cliffs and riding fresh powder are among my favorite snowboarding experiences.

Yura Kostiukevych
Kostya Garmash
Hello adventurers! I'm Kostya, a passionate rock climber specializing in bouldering and a love for the ocean's waves. I started my climbing journey in Ukraine, where I actively competed in national competitions, bagging several awards. Since moving to Seattle nine years ago, I've been a proud member of the Seattle Bouldering Project. My passion for heights isn't just restricted to boulders. I've scaled majestic peaks like Elbrus, Kazbek, and the challenging terrains of the Bezengi and Caucasus mountains, remembering the proud Mount Rainier. But when I'm not in the mountains, you'll find me riding the Pacific Northwest waves, having immersed myself in surfing since 2015. When the mountains are white, I ski, especially freeriding, with Mount Adams being one of my favorite spots.
Elena Talanova
Greetings! I'm Lena, originally from the beautiful landscapes of Ukraine and now calling the vibrant city of Seattle my home. My affinity for the outdoors began in Ukraine and has only intensified in the Pacific Northwest. Over the past decade, I've honed my rock climbing and snowboarding skills, exploring the diverse terrains Seattle offers. Beyond these pursuits, I'm deeply involved in hiking, mountaineering, and slacklining. My adventurous spirit also led me to spearhead the Rope Jumping Team "Extreme Adventures," jumping from cliffs, bridges, and skyscrapers. I've garnered a wealth of experiences from each venture and am keen on guiding you through your exhilarating outdoor journey.
Dima Shevchuk
Hi there! I'm Dima. Born in the picturesque landscapes of Ukraine, my adventurous spirit first took me to sunny California for several years before settling in Seattle a decade ago. My journey with snowboarding began in my homeland, and my passion intensified in the diverse terrains of the US. While I adore park and freestyle, nothing beats the thrill of gliding through fresh, powdery snow in the mountains of Washington and Oregon. But my love for boards isn't just limited to snow – I'm also an avid skateboarder.
Denis Rystsov
Born in the bustling city of St. Petersburg, I was always drawn to the grandeur of nature. Ten years ago, I made Seattle my home and the ocean my playground. Surfing along Washington's coastlines week after week, I've forged a deep connection with the waves and the water. When not out riding the waves, I eagerly guide others, sharing the rush and joy of surfing.
