Bio
The biggest smile and the dreadiest dreads on the mountain perpetually belong to Kaj Zackrisson. Known as the “Flying Squirrel” on the big-mountain freeskiing tour, this member of the notorious Swedish Posse has brought some more Swedish flair to Matchstick’s athlete roster. After one of the gnarliest falls / best recoveries of 2008, you’ll remember why this guy has the skills to hang with the best in the world.
