#TBT



Now that summer is gone and fall is just around the corner, I'm looking back at last ski season to give me motivation to battle hard through physical therapy. This video is from Big Mountain Hochfügen, it was my top finish ever on the international stage (at the time)- a 2nd place! I meet a lot of interestingly awesome people last season in Europe that made all the traveling worth it. The ski world is an amazing community no matter where you are from. I am truly stoked to be apart of all of this and to have the chance to improve upon last season's results.

Until next time-

Welcome to the World of Ashley Maxfield

Hey Everyone!

I've been wanting to start this blog for a while now but never seemed to find the time to do it. SO here it goes:

My name is Ashley Maxfield. My passion in life is skiing and when I'm not skiing I'm trying to make enough money to ski. I have been lucky enough to have found something that keeps me skiing and I can say I'm living my dream. The road of being a "professional skier" isn't always easy, there is a lot of heartache, injuries and set backs. But the feeling I get when my skis are sliding on snow makes everything else worth it.

A little bit about me:
I grew up in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, where there were at least twice as many dairy cows than people in town. I love where I am from, it has made me the person and skier I am today. Every summer I move back to the NEK to enjoy my family and the beauty that Vermont has to offer. I was raised to be a hard worker, to be humble and to never take anything for granted.

A little bit about this blog:
I want to give everyone a glimpse of my life: the amazing, the good, the bad and the ugly. I want to show the readers who I am, what I'm up to and where I've come from.

So please follow me in my epic adventures!

Until next time~

Keep the Shred Alive!
