As a robotics engineer at Carnegie Melon, Mike Parris developed technology used on the Mars rover expeditions. He later took his mechanical expertise and applied it to building custom skis with friends in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Now, Parris tailors around 100 pairs of skis each season to the individual needs and wants of customers, personalizing how each rider interfaces with the mountains and how people connect with his company, Igneous Skis.
