Bio

Sean Pettit can’t legally drive a car, but he’s licensed to school guys twice his age anywhere on the mountain. Busting on the professional ski scene at age 10, Sean Pettit has served up enough competition results and movie segments to be a veteran at 15. Calling Sean a “grom” is like calling a tiger a kitten. Amongst the peaks of British Columbia, Sean drops cliffs and boosts off kickers going just as big as the other pros around him. Despite impressive career accomplishments thus far, Sean is well grounded and deeply committed to his family. Look for Sean to pop up on more podiums and land more movie segments this season.
