Description

Adam Ü has received a lot of press recently, all for the wrong reasons. But getting a lot of press is what Adam does. Over the past 20 years, Adam has more covers than any skier I can think of, but his pro career has always been a struggle. It's a good thing Adam lives a double life as a marine biologist. In part 1 of his podcast, we talk about his passions: the water, climbing, and, much later, telemark skiing. We also discuss Carl Skoog, dropping out of school, Bend, Whistler, and much more.
