I thought this stint in jail might be a turning point for him. I guess not. RIP a ripper
Well that fuckin' sucks. It was always fun skiing near him at Dynastar events. He jumped over my head once at Snowbird.
JHC, from Olympian to dead in a jail cell.
Ah shit. RIP. Thoughts to friends and family

I skied past him at Snowbasin once over a decade ago. I stared at him like he was a celeb in line behind me as he was a movie star to me at the time. Clearly we weren’t racing. Really sad to hear this. Obviously being an outstanding ski talent doesn’t mean you don’t have other personal challenges that are much harder for you. RIP.
Well that sucks. Rip in peace Mister.
Damn, RIP in peace Nobis.
I'd say being an outstanding ski talent at a young age can stack the deck against you. Peaking at 22 is a tough row to hoe. Never been much money in the Freeskiing side and it's just as hard on the body. Couple that with the hard party habit and...Quote:

This is my all time favorite Powder cover. It was early in the fat skis days, and it just said everything about what was becoming possible.Quote:

Very sad news. Thoughts to family and friends. Addiction is a horrible disease.
I remember seeing him in the tgr video posted above. Absolutely ripped. Very inspiring.

RIP Nobis
Some of you may remember he was a coach at the first Gordy ski camp. I attended that
camp and was in awe of the technical power Nobis possessed. Without question, the strongest
skier I ever skied with.
Tragic. RIP.
The mugshots tell the unfortunate story, sad to see such a decline and ultimately untimely death.
Some of us might remember he was at the inaugural Gordy Camp, and a fun dude to shoot the shit with. So sorry he couldn't shake the demons. Super sad. RIP J.
RIP Nobis.
Thanks for always taking the time to talk when our paths crossed. Enjoyed watching you full throttle it on skis

Rip Nobis I remember seeing him at the Bird in the earl 2000’s and felt Star Struck. A few years later I had a full neon green north face outfit. He came up to me on the tram and we chatted about it and skiing for a bit. He always said hi to me after that. Nice guy gone to young.

Oh no! RIP wild man. Sad.
I can remember seeing him on Hood at Timberline when I was a kid at ski camp in the early 90’s. He was on the national team and he had those red nordica boots that I had never seen before, he was such a ripper. So sad, i can only hope he’s in a better place.

RIP. Those super G turns down big Alaskan faces have been what I’ve modeled my skiing around, it’s why I concentrated on skiing and left surfing behind. It’s why I live in Utah and not Hawaii. Was probably a decade ago that I last saw him. He absolutely crushed me that day on the golf course. So incredibly sad.

I'm sorry and saddened to see this -
my Condolences to family and friends...

Would have been nice to see him turn it around.
Keep yor sails trimmed and the vessel on course.
Damn. I can remember that Powder cover and Harvest segment clear as day.
RIP, hope he’s at peace.
Damn. RIP Nobis. Bummed he couldn’t turn it around somehow.

Dang, very sad. Addiction and depression are fierce demons. Didn't he have the White Rim in a day record for a while?

We need to prepare your racers for the next step in life. This cycle is happening too often. I don’t have any answers, but certainly am reflecting on what we can do better.
I am much younger than a lot of folks here, but "knew" Nobis through watching him ski in films and on mag covers my whole childhood. Reading the other thread on the front page makes you realize that this was a long saga of alcoholism, burnout and second chances. Vibes to his family and those who knew him.
I met him on the Snowbird Tram in the early 2000's. Had the absolute pleasure of skiing with him several times after that. An incredibly nice guy, truly an icon of our sport. Rest in Peace.
