But Paddy changed that school of thought, and it all started on a dry slope. Yep, before Paddy was filming powder segments, he learned how to ski on carpet. And that magic carpet had taken Paddy all over the world in pursuit of deep snow and the biggest jumps ever built.

Zach Crist may have the most complete ski career of any athlete I’ve had on the podcast--other than his older brother Reggie.

From there he became a guide, went to AK to film, invested in some ski related real estate and we talk about the high’s the lows, and the tragedies and triumphs on the podcast.
