Moo Eakin
Current Residence: Bend, OR
Moo is our youngest and newest team member and we are so excited to have her! Moo is at the ripe age of 14 and has only been skiing since she was 9! Moo switched from snowboarding to pick up freeskiing just 5 short years ago. Moo is already riding for Salomon, Oakley, Mt. Bachelor, Rockstar, Northwest Kids, and Skjersaa's ski shop. From the minute you are around Moo you will have a smile on your face. Moo is always in a good mood and dying to ski. Her favorite and signature trick is a spread eagle just trying to keep it steezy and fun. Looking up to Grete Eliassen, Michelle Parker and of course Ashley Battersby, Moo is always improving her tricks and her style. Moo is always bumping a variety of music that keeps you going including Lil Wayne, E40, Mac Dre, Mistah, F.A.B and anything that gets her hyphy. Moo wanted to improve her spinning this year and has definately gotten her air control on lock. Moo will be ripping it up at Hood this summer with a bunch of the MODAN team. Moo had a broken leg and although she is just coming back from that she is absolutely throwing down. All of us are so stoked to see how Moo shapes out. With an amazing amount of support from her friends and family I have no doubt Moo will push the limits of skiing in upcoming years. Moo recently just placed 5th at Copper Nationals even after getting a pretty bad concusion in the pipe.
Moo's Excerpt from her time at nationals this year:
"Nationals is so rad. There are over 1,600 skiers and snowboarders of all ages that come from all over to compete in this week long competition. It's always at Copper Mountain, which has a great park, and a really nice pipe. Everyone is super friendly and always down to shred which is the way it should be! Like I said I only got to compete in pipe, but all the girls killed it in slope this year, and everyone had a lot of fun!!"
We are so stoked to have this fun outgoing girl on our team. Moo definitely pushes the other girls to improve their skills because she is so quickly catching up to their skill level!
