The Fujas Family
Updated 2/11/2021
It’s been almost a year since we last checked in with the Fujas Family. Like the rest of us, Pep, Claire, Zoe and Hazel are all now a year older. Unlike the rest of us, they have a professional skier father showing them around Alta every ski day. It’s not uncommon to find Pep and Claire chasing five-year-old Zoe and four-year-old Hazel around all of Alta most weekends.
Pep Fujas was born and raised in rural Oregon and turned his love of skiing into a career as a professional freeskier. Pep has called Salt Lake City and Alta Ski Area home for two decades while becoming one of the most influential skiers of his generation. After riding and designing skis with K2 Skis for nearly twenty years, Pep is now VP of Marketing and Product Design for Salt Lake City-based ski startup, WNDR Alpine. He still uses Little Cottonwood Canyon as his personal training grounds, but he spends his weekends at Alta with his family—his wife Claire, five-year-old Zoe, and four-year-old Hazel.
Claire Lukeman grew up in Ohio, a long way from the snowy mountains of Alta. Despite the lack of vertical rise and deep powder, her parents loved to take Claire and her two sisters to the local ski hill. Once the three girls were comfortable on skis, th

OK, there are 3 different ways to generate rotation (spin)
1- "Contact twist", the most common in newschool skiing; when rotation is set on take-off (contact with the ground is used in the set)
2- "Tilt twist", think traditional aerials: this is when weight is changed on a flipping body to create spin. This is how aerialists can do tricks like a "lay-tuck-full" with no rotation on the first two flips and then a 360 on the final flip. (Using tilt twist it is actually physically possible to do a flip with a spin to the right, un-tilt, then do another flip with a spin to the left.) Tilt twist only works on a body that is already rotating on a flipping axis.
3- "Cat twist", sometimes known as hula hoop twist; the most awkward form of rotating involves basically flailing the body around in segments, upper-lower-upper-lower (cat out the window actually does apply here)
So anyways, it looks like what Pep did was a very slight "contact twist" to the left on take-off, but countered and overcame it with a whole lot of "cat twist" to the right once in the air.
