Jack Kolesch

Jack Kolesch grew up between the groomers of Lake Louise and the backcountry of the Columbia Valley around Invermere, British Columbia. That environment shaped a style focused on strong, committed skiing rather than decoration.

His first FWT season in 2026 was one of steady learning, with his confidence growing as the terrain became more consequential, particularly in Alaska.

At 22, Kolesch returns with a full season of Tour experience behind him and a better understanding of the faces, format and pressure that come with competing at the highest level of freeride.
