## Caption

Birk Irving always had dreams of being a Slopestyle skier, but a broken leg changed his trajectory. Unable to handle the harsh impacts of slope landings, he found himself drawn to the smoother transitions of the halfpipe. What started as a way to stay on the snow during recovery quickly became his greatest strength. By leaning into the transition of the pipe, Birk could return to skiing. 
Now, he’s one of the most technical skiers in the pipe, proving that sometimes the best path forward is the one you didn't see coming.
