We’re covering the full gamut on this episode of Ski With Wade when two-time World Champ and all-around great guy Will Asher joins Wade Cox for a lively chat about everything from peak off-season training to up-and-coming young water skiers to watch – and even learn from! A five-time Master’s champion and recent two-time Swiss Pro event winner, Will shares with Wade his take on how to drive performance, why it’s important not to let analysis paralysis send you into the weeds and what it means to come from legendary waterski stock! You’ll also find out about the attitude, discipline and life experience that have fueled Will’s many accomplishments, starting with a collegiate slalom record that has endured more than 20 years right through today’s epic career and partnership with HO Sports’ Syndicate 01’s factory-run competitive ski program. Don’t miss the rundown on today’s waterski landscape straight from the pros!
TOPICS COVERED:
*Design & Support: All about the role of Syndicate Works 01 giving pro skiers the cutting-edge technology, customization and testing they need.
*Legendary Performance: How the OMNI and it’s follow-up Phase II iteration have produced game-changing results for some of water skiing’s highest performing athletes.
*Talking Cross-Training: What Will does to stay in top condition during the off-season, including the challenging (somewhat ego bruising) new sport of hydrofoil surfing!
*Road Running: About Will’s other off-season passion: Cycling. Riding and bonding with a competitive pack is great conditioning for the marathon as well as the sprint.
*Talking Strategy: Why maximum training off the water ensures peak performance on the water, compensating for injuries and optimizing the body for quick heartrate recovery.
*Learning Process from the Pros: Will looks back at lessons learned from greats (like Wade!) about running the play and lining up the course SO thoroughly that it’s impossible not to relax into an organic (and winning!) rhythm.
*Enduring Legacy: What it means to be the National Collegiate Water Ski Association’s record holder for slalom unchallenged for more than 20 years and what’s on the horizon for young skiers in burgeoning college-level competition.
*On the Brink: Wade and Will swap thoughts about some of the most exciting young up-and-comers on the waterski scene. Some top picks to keep an eye on: 1) Lucas Cornale 2) Charlie Ross 2) Jaime Palomino. And also to watch? A couple of teen-age female phenoms from Chile: Dani Halford and Trinidad Espinal.
