Today one of the best skiers on the planet is back on the podcast, 2025 Freeride World Tour champion, Marcus Goguen, to talk with Jonathan about skiing in Chile this summer and testing skis; training for the upcoming season; Freeride in the Olympics; and what Marcus is up to with Adrenaline Performance.
ON3P Skis founder, Scott Andrus, is back to talk with Jonathan Ellsworth about their 26/27 lineup and a whole lot more.
The first dusting of snow has covered mountains from Colorado to Alaska, and that’s all the excuse we need to chat about deep days and big powder skis with reviewer and heli-guide, Paul Forward. Luke Koppa has Paul run us through the standout skis he got on last season; his latest takes on the evolution of powder-ski design; a ski boot that blew him away; and more.
At Blister Summit 2026, we had professional athletes & product developers talk with Jonathan about their own approaches and best tips for how to evaluate gear. You'll hear from Chris Rubens (Atomic); Lauren Samuels (Salomon); Shane Chappell (Burton); and Will Ritter (Spark R&D).
