Who Are We?
We are The Freeskier Society at the University of Utah. The largest and oldest club on campus. We exist on campus to help students get involved with the local Utah ski community and help students get out on the mountains for reasonable prices. We host events with prominent ski companies like TGR and Faction to get students who love the mountains together and stoked for the upcoming ski season.
Jacobi - President
Hey! I’m Jacobi. I’m from Boise, Idaho. I was raised in ski school and ended up instructing at Brighton. I hold my Level 2 Alpine and Level 1 Children’s specialist from PSIA. Besides that, I strive to change the snowsports industry to make it as inclusive and accessible as possible. Hit me up if you want to know what it’s like to have one of the best jobs on the mountain or if you want to work on your skiing.
