May 30, 2026 What Separates Olympic Gold and Silver? Alex Ferreira Has One Answer

lex Ferreira didn't grow up as the best skier in his group. He was middle of the pack at best. But he out worked everyone around him and made it to three Olympic games — winning silver, bronze, and gold.
In this episode Kyle and ‪@AlexFerreiraSki‬ get into what it actually takes to go from average to the best in the world. They cover visualization, mental preparation, how Alex trains for tricks that take years to land, and what it feels like to compete on the biggest stage in sports.
They also get into how Alex knew it was time to walk away after winning gold, why he won't go for another Olympics, and what he is focused on now including ‪@hotdoghans‬ his viral alter ego where he dresses up as an old man and hits backflips on the slopes while unsuspecting skiers watch in disbelief.
