Christina Preston

Hi my name is Christina I sent some info through on the contact us address but Im not sure it went through so Ill just send it again with attached photos to here.

  • Age

29 years young!  Yes I know that seems old for a Whistler Local but let’s just say it makes me more wise! Plus everyone thinks I’m 24 so I’ll just go with that.

 

  • Where do you hail from...

Came from a small town of 1000 called Hastings in Ontario.  Its sucked in the winter but is the bomb in the summer cause I live on the water and kill it wakeboarding in my Boat!

 

  • What Pays the rent
I work for Zip trek, I like flying through the trees and hanging upside down!
  • Nationality

Canadian!  The best place in the world to be from


  • Where you live

Live in Telemark but soon to be Whistler Cay Heights

  • I like

Snowboarding (hence why I live here) and in the summers wakeboarding, I was born to ride boards, love it,  live it, Rock it out!

  • I don't like

Long Lift Lines, boooooo and Olives… never really got the taste for them


  • Favorite food

Carmel Sundays from Mc Dee’s, Nacho’s and Cheese , Fajita’s and Cotton Candy

  • Favorite Beverage

Vodka and Diet Pepsi mmmmmm soo good, but Vodka and Orange Vitamin Water is starting to take over

  • Favorite place for Apres
Defiantly Long Horns for a beer and so I can people watch and then off to Crystal for some cheep wings!

  • Favorite Run

Most favorite run last year was my last run of the season, the peak chair just opened after 3 days of being closed and I got fresh tracks down the saddle  oooooh sooo good in the powder

  • Favorite music to ride to

Like to listen to all types… whatever I happen to scam off friends onto my Ipod but MGMT, Modest Mouse and Linkin Park, through in a little Tragically Hip for chillin days its all good.

  • First run of the day

Warm up on Upper Franz just taker easy

  • Last run of the day

Peak to Creek if I have it in me after a long day but I like hitting it under the Green Chair through the trees and hidden powder down to the village for Après

  • Skiing/snowboarding ability

Snowboarder for sure!   Almost a Shredder extrordinaire

 

  • Why I should be Miss Powder Mountain (250 words or less)

Powder Mountain and I share two qualities, 1) we’re both Awesome and 2) we both LOVE it when it SNOWS.  My passions include riding my snowboard so here I am in the land of white fluffy stuff and what better way to enjoy the winter than being an ambassador of the Powder Mnt!  I love to ride everyday and smile uncontrollably, making me very approachable and easy to talk to.  Past accreditations include Banff’s Next Top Model, and I’m one of the most Killer/Coolest Zip Trek Guides known to Whistler.  My energetic personality rivals most people hopped up on Red Bull I have a natural gift of the gab allowing me talk to complete strangers and come away with them feeling like we’re long lost friends.  All that along with my great smile would make me a phenomenal Miss Powder Mountain!

  • Tell us your best joke

Little Johnny sits on the sidewalk playing with a bottle of turpentine, shaking it up and down watching the bubbles when along comes the local priest, the priest says to little Johnny, Hello my son what do you have there? 

Johnny says well Father this here is the most powerful liquid in the WHOLE world

And what liquid is that my son asks the Priest

Well this here is Turpentine

The priest says well that’s very interesting Johnny but I have to tell you This here liquid is the most powerful piqued in the entire world, this is called Holly Water and when you rub this over a pregnant ladies belly they will pass a healthy baby.

Well Johnny thinks about this for a while and says… ya know father I’m gonna have to disagree with you cause this here turpentine is defiantly the most powerful liquid in the world cause when you pass this over a Cats Ass it’ll pass a motorcycle


  • Three funny things we could do to help pick the winner at the Longhorn on Dec 3rd 2009 party

Impromptu talent contest are always entertaining, frozen t-shirt contest is fun and beer chugs are always a favorite of mine.... Watching guys and girls try to put on each others cloths is always fun too... oh ya and theres that game where you have to put a golf ball up one leg and down the other of your partners first... always good for a laugh and free stuff.

"I think Christina would make an excellent Miss Powder mountain for a few reasons, a big one being her ability to rescue friends in times of need. I was about to be mauled by a whole bunch of wild cougars in the outback of Golden, BC's locals pubs when Christina swooped and managed to send them packing...who knows how things might have turned out if Christina had not been there..."

Here's another story for ya about Christina and why shes amazing and belongs here in bc with a job like MPM.  Don't know if you know it or not but she's actually an electrical apprentice as well as a killer Zip Trek guide.  Not so much of a big deal out here cause there's alot of girls in trades but it definatly shows a level of commitment to leave a good paying job  and travel across the country all in the name of a killer pow line!  Choose Christina, you'll never think twice about your choice!

Christina will rock as The Miss Powder, I've never seen someone so dedicated to a cause/on a mission, Christina gives it her all in whatever she does and this contest is of no exception.  You can't loose choosing Christina she's hilarious, funny, charming and none stop entertainment.  Not to mention she's a great representative for any organization/business and you would be lucky to have her represent your company as Miss Powder Mountain.  You Go Girl!

Ive only known Christina since last winter, but she is a true champ. She is such an awesome snowboarder and I know its annoying to ride with learners, but she was always willing to take me on some of the good runs and help me out with showing me how to ride! She's always so outgoing and friendly, always up for a drink and party and can make friends with anyone easily. She is a true Whistler ambassador and she would ABSOLUTELY ROCK at being Miss Powder Mountain. You go gal!!

I have known Christina Preston since she was about 9 years old.  Since then, I have watched and witness her grow into a great public speaker. She was always a great host, very well spoken, cheerful and a pleasure to watch her host and MC at her family's annual Jamboree.  She would be an outstanding "Miss Powder Mountain" one that all can be proud of.

“Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore. We have seen the future, and the future is ours.”- Cesar Chavez
DO THE RIGHT THING,
VOTE CHRISTINA PRESTON FOR MISS POWDER MOUNTAIN!!!!!

I met Christina a couple of years ago when my family bought property right across from her family's park. That summer, I watched her MC the country music jamboree, punctuating colour commentary with hilarious jokes and good old country charm. She's not just a pretty face, but also a great person with a warm heart and I can't think of anyone who deserves to be Miss Powder Mountain - so vote for her!!!
