Atle McGrath, At Long Last
Listen now
Description
This episode is a year late. No matter: we overcame the broken SD card and recorded a new interview with Atle Lie McGrath. One of the most fun skiers on the World Cup circuit and wise beyond his years, we had a fantastic conversation. He talked through his knee injury sustained at the 2023 World Champs and his recovery plan. We discussed mental health, his team dynamics (including a funny story involving Lucas Braathen), the Norwegian development system (why is it so good right now?!), and the specifics of his equipment (we even get into the numbers). We dove deeply at every point, and there are some fantastic stories scattered throughout. Questions, suggestions, and grievances always welcome: [email protected] or on Instagram @jimmy_who_ Arc City merch available at arccity.org !
