The Highest Mountains

Posted on: October 29th, 2011 by colby No Comments

I just got done in Austria at the annual sales meeting with Kastle. We had a great time. My skis are looking good for this season and I’m proud to say they came out exactly as I was hoping. Oliver Binder, the Kastle head of ski engineering, did a great job. I am excited to see what the rest of the ski world thinks of our work.

On one of the last nights we had an amazing presentation from Chris Davenport, one of my teammates on the Kastle program. He showed slides and told the story of his summiting of Everest. Listening to his story got me thinking about where I want my ski career to be heading. I hope I can keep it up for as long as he has and with just as much passion and enthusiasm. There is always something fun and interesting to be done in our sport; enough to fill a lifetime and more.

If you ever get the chance to hear Chris speak or read one of his books, do it. Learning about his adventures is quite inspiring and he is a true professional in his career as a skier, mountaineer, and entertainer.
