Thank U Snowboarding - S2 - Ep24 - Steve Bailey

Not many people can legitimately claim the title GOAT, but Steve is on that short list, in fact he might BE the short list.

The influence on UK snowboarding that Steve has had cannot be denied, whilst most people were trying 360's and 540's, Steve was blasting 7's and 9's way over their heads, on dryslope, which is fucking hardcore and not something that most people ever got to.

Steve is a cat, I've followed him round Les Arcs enough to see his natural ability to spring over rocks, blast massive and stylish airs, spin like a top and generally rule the mountain, first hand, and it is rare qualities he posseses as not many other riders have that. I think there is a reason why Chris Moran and Steve were friends and riding buddies because Chris has that ability too (when he isn't skiing obvs) but Steve really pushed it.

Picked up by Burton and championed round Europe, Steve was at home riding snow, dryslope, even shitty Ski Show quarter pipes where he sent methods more than head height out.

Steve is very happy in his own skin and lives life on his terms, sadly we don't see him snowboard much these days, but I'm hoping that changes with a trip to Austria in the calendar. He spends time manning the Snowboard Asylum in Chester and climbs as often as possible in North Wales, he is a man of few words and many cigarettes, and I"m looking forward to seeing himblast a backside air higher than ever soon...
