The Return of Paula Moltzan
Listen now
Description
On this week's episode of Tips and Tales, Sean Higgins talks with rising American World Cup slalom star Paula Moltzan. Moltzan was a member of the national team for many years and even won a gold medal at the 2015 World Junior Championships before getting dropped from the team a year later.

Don't plan on seeing her away from the top ranks of the World Cup anytime soon.
