What’s in and what’s out in ski design? And how have U.S. ski companies been doing over the past few years? At Blister Summit 2024, we discussed this and much more with Moment Skis CEO, Luke Jacobson, and Icelantic Skis founder, Ben Anderson. We cover notable trends; why skis cost what they do; the challenges of manufacturing skis in the U.S.; whether a core-shot-proof ski is possible, and more. And, if you’d like to check out the video of this conversation, then head over to the BLISTER YouTube channel to watch this, plus other panel sessions from all of our Blister Summits, plus new brand lineup videos, etc. RELATED LINKS: Blister Rec Shop: Lone Pine Gear Exchange Get Covered: BLISTER+ VIDEOS: BLISTER YouTube Channel TOPICS & TIMES: Introductions 3:21 Manufacturing Challenges 8:08 Ski Costs vs. Ski Prices 14:10 Exciting New Ski Materials? 26:01 Audience Questions 35:50 CHECK OUT OUR OTHER PODCASTS: Blister Cinematic CRAFTED Bikes & Big Ideas Blister Podcast Off The Couch Hosted on Acast.
