There is the potential for an age-limit rule change in NCAA skiing. So I got three veterans of the American ski racing world to help talk through it, and we ended up discussing far more than that. We briefly walked through the history of college ski racing in the US, then we talked about statistics, average ages, the international wave of skiers, the proposed age-limit rule, the balance between the U.S. Ski Team pipeline and college, the former U.S. University Team, high school post-graduate years, the difficulty of college race courses, supplementing training in the off-season, and more. Woof. I had three guests who helped navigate it all smoothly: Edie Morgan, a two-time Olympian and forefront American alpine journalist; Pete Dodge, former accomplished ski racer and Dartmouth College head coach for 33 years; and Aldo Radamus, formerly a World Cup head coach, Director of US Development, Director of SSCV, and is now currently Director at Team Summit Colorado.
