Chris Grenier is an extreme workhorse. In an industry where many riders expect handouts, it’s really good to see someone succeed proper hard work and determination. Kids take note, this is Chris Grenier.

How’s the Salomon Team Vaction RV tour going?

We’ve just been traveling around to a bunch of different resorts,boarding with all the kids, you know, it’s been a ton of fun. I’ve also been getting on a few rail trips, here and there, but mainly just filming for the tour.

What’s been your favorite part about tour life?

Shit man, tour life. Well we have NHL 2012 on the RV, so I’ve just been mopping people up, virtually. Java [Salomon TM], I’ve beaten him about 35 times in a row.

What are your other obligations this season besides the Salomon tour?

At the end of January I’m jumping on the ThirtyTwo shop tour for three weeks. The shop tours are awesome. I love going on them and hanging with the kids, but it makes it really hard to film for a video part when you have all these other obligations for sponsors.

Who are you filming for this year?

I’m trying to film a part for VideoGrass. But it’s tough when the majority of your time is on the RV tour going to resorts. But shit man, I’m having fun, I can’t complain.
