Listen Later

Kai Jones is only 18, but he’s already on track to becoming the best non-racing skier of our time. This son of TGR founder Todd Jones is taking his famous family DNA to the next level.  His movie, “Falling Into Place” chronicles his career, his huge injury and what’s on tap for his future. On the podcast, we talk about growing up in the TGR shadow, skiers he drew inspiration from, his breakout part, going viral, HS, sponsor, his injury, and more. Tim Durtschi asks the Inappropriate Questions
