206 Elisabeth Gerritzen Feb 17, 2022

Show notes

Elisabeth Gerritzen is the defending Freeride World Tour champion, but she admits she has difficulty with that title. Eli talks about how she strives to be the best at what she does but always struggles to be satisfied with her own accomplishments and desires to learn to be kind to herself.

She's filming her own project this winter with an all female crew in front of and behind the lens. She's still competing on the FWT and is studying for her Masters Degree in Law. Impressive is the word we have for her. Hopefully she can agree.

Show notes

Chris Logan, (C-Lo) talks about his long relationship with Rossignol, doing a McDonalds ad and his preference to travelling with his truck vs. flying. We also brainstorm the idea of a Logan family ski flick with C-Lo connecting with his sister, Devon, who is a silver medalist olympian, and his brother Sean, an excellent filmer. I guess we'll have to wait for that one.
