Our guest today is Nikolai Schirmer, and we’re discussing skiing & surfing; skiing in Norway (and why Niko should become the Ski Czar of Norway); the Most Norwegian News; movies — including how easy / hard it is for certain outdoor sports to translate on film; & more. You can also check out my very gear-centric conversation with Niko over on our GEAR:30 podcast, episode #309: The Pro’s Gear: Nikolai Schirmer.
