Bio

During an April trip to Haines that almost never happened, someone – or something – lit a fire under D-Money’s ass.  Rahlves chose to bring his A-game to Alaska and slayed a couple of the biggest, gnarliest lines of the season with blazing fast straightlines, huge airs, and impressive technical prowess.  The former Olympian set out to prove that there’s no end in sight for him anytime soon, and there’s no limit to his abilities on or off the race course.
