Good Day to you all, My Friends & Fans! Welcome to another new episode of the Ski Rex Media Podcast. This week, Kimberley Kay, author & illustrator of Ski A to A, returns to the podcast, but with a new project and a new friend. She is joined by Dr. Carol Porter to talk about The Fear Project.

Snowsports Fear - Is fear or anxiety spoiling your time on the slopes? 

 Author and Illustrator of Ski A to Z Kimberley Kay and Snowsport England coach Dr Carol Porter will share actionable solutions on how to reduce the impact of fear and anxiety on snowsports enjoyment and participation. 

 A survey of skiers and snowboarders sought to understand the ways in which fear and anxiety can affect them. The survey data was complemented by in-depth case study interviews to determine the key themes and issues and how they can spoil time on the slopes and reduce people’s inclination to take part in snowsports. 

 These issues have been addressed and solutions determined so set yourself up for a great 24/25 season with this insightful and inspiring interview as the starting point. 

 The Fear Project is supported by Snowsport England, The Hill (Home of Ski Rossendale), Ski Press and GB Snowsport.

Enjoy the episode as we get deeper into the fear project as we talk all about The Fear Project and a little more here on the Ski Rex Media Podcast. Thanks for listening.

It's been a while, My Friends. Ski Rex Media has been on pause for the summer, though more than usual. True, I don't podcast in the summer, anyway, but I usually have more going on than I have lately. I've been putting in some time with Tecnica & Rollerblade working in their warehouses. BUT...now is the time to get back into the swing of Ski Rex Media things.

To get back into the interviewing and recording part of Ski Rex Media, I made it easy on myself and went over to a place I know to speak with a person I know. For this little bonus episode, I bring you Jon Hunt, Exec. Director of Whaleback Mountain, friend of Ski Rex Media, and fan favorite from the Ski Rex Media Podcast. For this episode, we talk all about Whaleback Mountain, obviously. It's my home mountain and I wanted to get an update as to what's been going on over the summer and what's in store for the winter. I'm pretty sure there are more than a few of you out there who would like the same information. So, I bring to you that information. Enjoy!!!

Oh, by the way...I am going to start working on getting transcripts/subtitles up with the podcast episodes, both past and future. This one has a transcript attached. I think you may need to listen via the Podbean app to see them, but they are there. Let me know what you think if you use them.
