OUTSTANDING HUMAN at SGT
With love and appreciation to all of the past women and men that traveled down to Argentina in the name of SGT and adventurous shredding and found the path through the woods to incredible amount of joy, the 2012 SGT staff is the best yet. This week coach Tony Pavlantos put on his eco-friendly big-boy pants on and gave his immense heart and time to every client that crossed his periphery. For that we say THANK YOU TONY!
2012 SGT Argentina is only days away from dropping cliffs and crushing powder in Bariloche. The staff and coaches are starting to head down south and the clients arrive on the 25th of July. Here is a glance at what is to come for 2012 with a quick look back at serious slashing, skiing and snowboarding, featuring new bookends from our friends at Levitation Project.

Michelle Parker enters her 5th year as an SGT coach in Argentina. Not much can be said about Michelle that has not been said about an avalanche — she rips down mountains with the force of mother nature and leaves everything in her path destroyed. Michelle Parker, she really is a big deal.
Michelle’s story:
When I was 18 I traveled through South America with Garrett Russell. We explored most of the well known ski resorts in Chile and Argentina and met some incredible people along the way, one of those being Skylar Holgate. After hiking and skiing with Skylar in Las Lenas, I knew that I was hooked. Not only was I hooked on skiing in South America, but I was pretty much hooked on everything else related to skiing and culture and South America.
