We are switching up this edition of Model Spotlight by highlighting someone who has posed for the likes of Rip Curl and Vans.

Ok, we know that may not be a stretch from others we have featured.

Yet, we should point out that this individual’s day job is actually on the slopes.

Olya Smeshlivaya is a professional snowboarder who was born in Ukraine and moved to Russia early in her childhood. Now, you can often catch her with a board under her feet.

To give you a flavor as to what you can expect with Olya, we are mashing up an Escape with our Model Spotlight series.

Hint – expect more than snow!

Starting with a softer side…
