What: Donny Pelletier: Maine’s Finest Athlete (just ask him)
Everybody's favorite skier, also known as Maine's Finest Athlete, Donny Pelletier, is back at Snowbound Expo 2025 for what will surely be a speech to remember. Pelletier is listed as a headline speaker at Snowbound 2025, but don't be surprised if things go off the rails.

2. Amie Engerbretston
When: Saturday, November 15, 2025
What: Are We Hypocrites? Amie Talks Moral Conflicts in the Mountains
Professional skier, climate advocate, and all-around good human Amie Engerbretson will lead multiple talks at Snowbound Expo 2025. We're most intrigued, however, by Engerbretson's planned talk on Saturday called, 'Are We Hypocrites? Amie Talks Moral Conflicts in the Mountains'.
Considering Engerbretson's though-provoking 2024 film, The Hypocrite, we're expecting this talk to be quite engaging.
3. Zeb Powell
When: Saturday, November 15, 2025
What: In Session With Zeb Powell
Zeb Powell is arguably snowboarding's most popular rider, and with a vague name like 'In Session With Zeb Powell', we're very curious about what the rider from North Carolina is planning. Details are limited. I guess we'll have to show up to find out!

Noah Dines became a household name when he accomplished an unbelievable feat on skis. In the course of just one year, Dines ascended, and subsequently descended, over 3.5 million feet of vertical. Snowbound Expo 2025 guests will have the opportunity to see a new movie titled 'Still Excited to Ski' about Dines' journey, and will have opportunities to ask questions.

When: Friday, November 14, 2025
What: Meet Sit-Skiing’s MVP, Jay Rawe
If you don't know who Jay Rawe is, please stop what you're doing and watch this clip.
Rawe is one of skiing's most creative and innovative athletes. Rather than treat his sit-ski like a hinderance, Rawe charges faster, leaps higher, turns better, and sends it larger than many of his counterparts. He's an absolute joy to watch on snow. Fans will have the opportunity to listen to and meet Rawe during his talk on Friday.

What: Movie Screening & Behind the Scenes – Return To The Silk Road
Legendary freeskier and ski industry veteran Dan Egan returns to Turkey to ski the same locations that made him famous in Warren Miller's 1992 film Steeper and Deeper. The only difference? About 30 years and his nephew, Jonny Egan, is in tow.
Check out a screening of the new film at Snowbound Expo 2025.
