  • Tom Peiffer - Pro Skier
    Oct 20 2026
    Tom Peiffer’s skiing has undoubtedly been shaped by the coastal mountains in his backyard surrounding Whistler, BC. Tom has undeniably proven his tenacity in the competition world. Consistently ranked among the best North American athletes, he spent four seasons on the Freeride World Tour, where his aggressive and fall-line skiing stood out. Tom is also no stranger to chasing backcountry objectives at home or remote lines in the corners of the world, from the Himalayas to Argentina. No matter the terrain, Tom will find his way up…and down. In his free time, he stays busy pursuing a career in paramedicine and staying outdoors, preferably surfing waves. Tom was part of the development team for the Canvas skis from the very beginning. He tested all the prototypes and worked closely with the Blizzard engineers, playing a big role in the creation of the current Canvas collection.

But at the end of the day, Richard is someone who shows up, steps in, and makes things move. He doesn’t just believe in the potential of this region—he works for it, every day.
