Klaus Obermeyer has had a bigger impact on skiing than any man alive, and when he wasn’t innovating the sport, he was in Aspen or traveling the world to ski. He was often found surrounded by a harem of beautiful women. In part 2 of his podcast, we talk about inventing sunscreen, mirrored sunglasses, ski brakes, the down jacket, and so much more.  It’s crazy the innovations and the fun that Klaus has brought to skiing over his 105 years
