The Blade Dive Episode 29 - We are joined by Vermont native and Killington’s superhero operator, Corey Tredtin.  Corey not only contributes to the Terrain Park, but goes outside the ropes to assist with all types of projects involving many different pieces of equipment. Like most, Tredtin had humble beginnings and still remembers the day he met Jay Rosenbaum, the KSA General.

Growing up in Vermont, Corey Tredtin played ice hockey and skied as well. Choosing to invest more time in skiing, the back yard Terrain Park at home came to life. Fast forward to meeting Jay Rosenbaum at the local skatepark and the rest is history.

Corey Tredtin would quickly develop a passion for building Killington’s Terrain Park and would ride along in the snow cat for hundreds of hours in the passenger seat, before getting behind the sticks. With guidance from Jay and others, Tredtin honed his skills and would contribute to large scale event builds at Killington such as the Modified Halfpipe and would travel to contribute to events like Superpark 16 at Mt. Bachelor. 

Episode 29 is a really fun dive into the life and career of Corey Tredtin through a long list of special guests who know Tredtin well. We discuss what it’s like to lift others up instead of elevating yourself, the mentality that rookie operators should have in order to be successful, how many ride along hours one should have and what current operators inspire Corey today.

Enjoy...  and if you're in the machine, go ahead and TURN THE VOLUME UP!
