Tim Steward

Down in New Zealand’s Southern Lakes, Tim treats winter like one big playground, wide open bowls, steep gullies, and that special mix of fresh powder and spring corn that keeps you coming back for “just one more.” His approach is pure joy with a quiet confidence underneath: don’t take it too seriously, keep exploring, and let the mountains remind you why you started in the first place.

Tim’s mantra captures him perfectly: “Don’t grow up, find a bigger playground.” It’s not about being reckless, it’s about staying curious, keeping the stoke alive, and choosing objectives that make you feel like a kid again, only with better judgment and better gear. On tour, he keeps it simple: scroggin in the pack, tea in the break, and a steady focus on enjoying the day with the people you’re out there with. If you ski with Tim, expect playful turns, big views, and a vibe that makes the climb feel lighter.
