In order to get noticed in any sport you need to be able to stand out from the crowd. California’s Bev Vuilleumier does just that. From spending her winters on the contest circuit to coaching the next wave of up-and-comers and being crowned the Ullr champ last spring, we don’t except her to slow down any time soon. Lucky for us Bev recently let us in on her top 5ives.

1. Nice people
2. A lot of sun

2. Legally Blonde (2001)
3. Just Like Heaven (2005)
4. Election (1999)

On being an MGT coach:
1. New friends
2. Campers keep my tricks in check
3. Ride new resorts
4. Hang with other MGT coaches
5. A lot of good vibes and smiles

Songs of all time:
1. "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay" - Otis Redding
2. "Dreams" - Fleetwood Mac
3. "Too Hard" - Mac Dre
4. "I'm Looking Through You" - The Beatles
