@angelcollinson built her career snaking beautiful turns down improbable faces. She’s one of the best big-mountain skiers in the world and has racked up nearly every accolade possible: she won the Freeskiing World Tour (twice), scored magazine covers, was the first woman to win Powder magazine’s coveted Line of the Year award, and is notable as the first woman to nab the opening and closing segments in a ski movie.
Atop all of the success, Collinson was wrestling with a feeling of burn-out, a feeling that the dream she was living was no longer the dream she had for herself. After a lot of deliberation, Collinson officially left skiing in October of 2021, unsure of her future but committed to perhaps finding it on the boat she purchased with her partner @petewillauer.
One year later, @annacalla caught up with Collinson to get a deeper understanding of what led one of the world's top skiiers to walk away from the sport and to find out how her life at sea is shaping up.
