Bio: My name is Dylan Deschamps. I am a young skier, seventeen years old on the Quebec slopestyle team. Starting four years ago, I use all my free time for training. My goal for the future is to win the X Games and the Olympic games. Last Winter, I had the chance to finish third place at Aspen Open slopestyle which is one of the biggest competitions in North America. For this season, as plan, I will film many videos and I’ll do my best to get as far as possible in the competition circuit if it’s possible because of the COVID-19.
