Tales From Inside the Ski Industry

Or listen here: Apple Podcasts , Spotify , or Google Podcasts

At long last, Arc City is back. And for this episode, a slight change of pace. Instead of an athlete, we talk to someone inside the ski industry (2:55). Jake Stevens spent six years running the North American Race Department at Rossignol Group, and now works at a higher, more general position in the company. He gives us his inside insights on everything from cutting-edge ski technologies to how a World Cup racer develops skis to the actual budgeting of a race department. After, we give two young racers, Doum Rainville and Cam Smith, a 5-minute call to hear about the company they founded called Thrival Muscle Recovery (45:10). Finally, as always, we read the mail (55:00).
