BENJAMIN PELLEGRINO AKA THE PRINCE

MILOSPORTS first master shredder pick from Benny Pellegrino!!! Ben loves ripping pow at Utah's famous Snowbird Resort. With 28 years of experience under his belt, Ben truly knows how to hand pick the best shredding goods available! We spoke with Benny and asked him a few questions, here is what he had to say!

-CH: WHERE ARE YOU FROM AND WHAT BROUGHT YOU TO UTAH?

-Ben: I'm from NorCal. The majestic Wasatch Mtns are what brought me to Utah!!! 

-CH: WHERE DO YOU RIDE?

-Ben: i'm a FOBL. Full On Bird Loc. 

-CH: WHATS YOUR BIGGEST TRAM PET PEEVE?

-Ben:My biggest Tram pet peeve is people farting on the tram, c'mon it's only 8 minutes, hold it!!!!!

-CH: WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR INTEREST/HOBBIES APART FROM SHREDDING?

-Ben:Skateboarding is near and dear to my soul, but Downhill/Freeride Biking has captured my heart right now!!!

-CH: DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM DAY AT THE BIRD?

-Ben:My Dream day is a surprise mid day underforecasted snowfall day at Snowbird that closes Little Cottonwood Canyon with low occupancy in the hotels and not many employees around. This equals INTERLODGE/closed canyon conditions with walk on trams. I had it like that for 2 days once in the late 90's. 30 person trams with no locals but a hendful around for 2 days!! Epic to say the least...

Big thanks to Benny and everyone and Milo. Stay human and shop local. THeses dudes know what they are talking about so go in an say hey to them at there OREM location. Also stay tuned for a video walk through of benny's winter 14 product picks!
