Markus Eder on Training, Pressure, Mental Prep, & the Golden Age of Skiing

Markus Eder is one of the best (and most versatile) big-mountain skiers ever. Hoji just stated this again on GEAR:30 (ep.220), and Cody Townsend ranks Markus’ Ultimate Run as the best ski edit of all time (Blister Podcast ep.193). Today, we talk to Markus about training; skateboarding as prep for ski season; the golden age of skiing; competing; filming the Ultimate Run; lessons from Hoji and Sam Anthamatten; the Volkl ‘Built Together’ program; & more.
