Thomas James "TJ" Schiller (born October 17, 1986)[1] is a Canadian freestyle skier. Schiller combines amplitude with style and is best known for his signature switch 1080 mute grab.[2] During Winter X Games XIV, Schiller became the first person to land a double cork 1620 (four and a half rotations with two flips). Behind Henrik Harlaut and Andrew Taylor, he is the third person to land a 1620 of any kind in competition. Schiller is the head skier of the Canadian freestyle team.[3]
