    #06 Maria Tviberg - The way back after 4 ACL

    For this 6th episode, I had the chance to seat with the first girl of this podcast. The Norwegian Maria Tviberg was kind enough to talk about her way through 4 ACL injuries and gave some tips from her own experience.

    We all know that alpine skiing is a risky sport. And everyone is ready to accept that a few steps back during a career might happen. But not so many people are able to to break 4 ACL and still wants to fight for the top spots in Worldcup! Maria explains us her ups and downs of reha and why she wasn't sure she would come back after the last injury.

    N.B. Disclaimer: We are no doctors, everything that has been talked during this podcast is from personnal knowledge. We hope it helps you figure out a problem that you have or motivate you to fight for your dreams, but we cannot say or not say that this will help you heal.

    #05 Dave Ryding - From plastic slopes to Kitzbühel podium

    For this fifth episode, we went to England, more precisely with the slalom skier Dave Ryding.

    In this episode we are taking a look at the career of Dave. He skied on dryslopes for 11 years and finally got a taste of snow at only 13 years old!!! So his path to his podium in Kitzbühel is very different then many alpine skiers.


    He is also explaining what it is like open a coffee shop with his fiancee and why it is important for him to take his mind off skiing!

    #04 Victor Wiacek - How a life threatening ski accident gave me a meaning

    #04 Victor Wiacek - How a life threatening ski accident gave me a meaning

    For this fourth episode, I got the chance to sit down with Victor Wiacek, originally from Poland but living in the USA since his childhood.

    This episode is a little bit different, since he is the first guest not racing on the world cup tour, but that doesn't mean we didn't talk about racing. As a fact, he is an athlete as well, but his life changed drastically two years ago when a ski laceration almost took his life while doing what he likes most, skiing.

    So he dedicated his time into making ski racing safer and try to put awareness into the dangers of ski laceration. So as I got a cut myself last season, we can both relate to a different level to the danger of it and talked about our feelings and what has to be done to make racing safer!
