RIVER RADAMUS
Colorado-born, Vail-raised—could probably out‑ski you before you learned to walk. A three‑time Youth Olympic Games gold medalist (the first ever!), he’s gone from ski prodigy to World Cup contender, with a World Championship team‑gold to prove it. Known for his wild hairstyles and chill vibes, he’s as comfortable ripping super‑G as catching waves surfing in Nicaragua. Off‑piste, you’ll spot him hiking, dirt‑biking, or golfing—all while running a foundation to make ski racing less exclusive. River races with a grin, hip-dragging angles, and an unpredictable buzz cut.
ACCOLADES
- 3x Youth Olympic Games gold medalist (2016)
- 2x Junior World Champion (2019: Super‑G & Giant Slalom)
- Gold medal—Team Event / 2023 World Championships
- 3rd Place GS / Palisades Tahoe 2024
- Wooden Spoon—4th Place GS / Beijing 2022 Games

WHAT IS YOUR FIRST MEMORY ON SKIS?
My parents are ski coaches but they never coached me. I remember one of my first races, at Ski Cooper. I finished the first run then my mom took me freeskiing. Second run, then more freeskiing. I don’t think I went to awards, and I don’t remember caring.
WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER TO BE YOUR HOME MOUNTAIN, AND WHY?
Taos Ski Valley. It’s an adopted home, but there’s nowhere in the world I’d rather go for a freeski day. you can feel the deep local passion for skiing and the terrain is up there with anywhere.
BEST FEELING ON SKIS?
Long, clean, hipdrag GS turn.
WHERE DO YOU FIND INSPIRATION IN SKIING?
Pushing my limits, seeing what’s possible. Figuring something out, then figuring out how to replicate it. Watching my friends and trying to one-up them.
FAVORITE THING TO DO OFF THE SKIS?
Take photos, surf, golf, run, hockey, moto, or one of the other 100 hobbies i suck at.
TOP 3 SKIING DESTINATIONS?
Taos Ski Valley, Sella Ronda Dolomites, Val D’isere France.
WHAT'S NEXT FOR YOU?
Getting Dialed for the O Show next winter in Italy. I can’t wait to compete for my country on the world stage again.
