STEEP Beginnings.

The year is 2021 and the future is bright. My name is Matt and I am the creator of Steep Studios.

It has been an ironic past few weeks. My goal had been to do some of the best skiing of my life in some of my favorite locations with my favorite people. After that, I would officially launch Steep Studios and see how far I could go. Instead, I tore my ACL on day one of the first major trip and subsequently learned that I actually also tore my other ACL 10 years ago. Zero ACLs, still can shred. With my physical future in limbo, I found myself a crossroads regarding how to proceed with STEEP.

Taking the Steep mantra to heart - “Steep is a lifestyle” - the only option is to push ahead with the launch and to let the chips fall where they may. Even if I am unable to pursue as many professional opportunities as I had hoped to in 2021 while I am recovering from ACL-reconstruction surgery (surgeries?), I am steadfast in my goal to make Steep Studios a reality.

2020 was a year of exploration, refinement, evolution, and commitment. 2021 is the year of mastery, opportunity, and resolve. Cheers to a future of slick video edits, meaningful connections, photography-overload, and my personal comeback to skiing mountains all across the globe.
