GEAR:30

Crosson Skis founder, Chase Englehart


Listen Later

Crosson Skis is a small, new company building skis outside of Seattle — and they are making some very big claims.

So we talk to their founder, Chase Englehart, about the origins of Crosson; what makes their skis different — and better — than what’s out there; manufacturing skis in Tukwila, WA; working with athletes like Bobby Brown and Banks Gilberti; and their 19/20 lineup.
