14 - We Bullied Dave and the Colorado Ski Safety Act
This week on How to Ski It, things get a little out of hand... well, for Dave at least! We pull a hilarious prank on our co-host (don't worry, it's all in good fun!), then get down to some serious business: the Colorado Ski Safety Act. We break down the law that outlines skier responsibility and protects ski resorts from lawsuits. But it doesn't stop there! We also share our honest opinions on the act and its shortcomings and even brainstorm some ideas for how it could be improved in the future. Buckle up for some laughs and some learning!

Customer Reviews
The ski banter you didn’t know you needed
The perfect podcast to plug in for that commute to work or when you’re just relaxing and want to hear the guys chatting it up. Love this series and can’t wait to see the growth and episodes to come! Highly recommended for skiers of any level even a fun listen for non skiers!
Aprés!
This is a fun podcast to hear some people who love skiing talking about the sport. It is unhinged in the best way!
