I quit. Sorry for the April Fools joke. This was my last race. Classic post to come.

Been thinking about this a lot recently and after watching World Cup Finals in Sun Valley, I have no doubt that I could smoke all those fools. 93 nation lives on…. #comeback#3.5

Just another road. Happy to be here. @atomicski @swix_sport @oakleyskiing @worldcupdreamst2 #weareskiing #backinthebib #stifelusskiteam @usskiteam 📸 @iangarner1

“It’s Worth It” 💯 Sam DuPratt, a speed skier for the Stifel US Ski Team suffered a knee injury last season and several other injuries in the past, but does not intend on walking away from a challenge.
💪He battled through another road to recovery and will continue to work hard to get back on the slopes!

Road to Recovery 💪🏁

Coming back from an injury is never easy but for @itsliterallysam the thrill of the sport will always be worth it. Follow Sam as he comes back to snow after injuring his knee last season ⬆️

I left my ACL in Bormio.

This one is hard to swallow, but it’s the life I chose and I would do it all again.

Not sure what is next for me. This is either an opportunity to see how much perseverance I have in me, or an opportunity to finally get on with the rest of my life. Either way, looking forward to it.

Thanks for all the kind words recently, y’all’s are too nice.

New year, new knee.

Truly an honor to have the opportunity to overcome my fear of this beautiful place. Thanks again to everyone that got me there.

Greased it this time.

More speed next time.
