Let's make this birthday one to remember.

46 years old (Born on October 14, 1978)

Happy Birthday, Chris "Big Air" Burandt! Another year older, another epic leap through the crisp mountain skies—please promise us you'll avoid jumping over your own birthday cake. How do you manage to defy gravity while the rest of us can't even gracefully handle icy sidewalks?

From heart-stopping stunts in Colorado's backcountry slopes to dominating competitions with fearless style and skillful acrobatics—you've redefined greatness on a snowmobile. May this coming year bring plenty more powder days and jumps so daring they'll make physics professors scratch their heads.

Keep soaring fearlessly above expectations; clearly age is just air time for legends like you!
