The Devon Kershaw Show: Inside Olympic Skis and Waxing with Zach Caldwell

 

In this episode of the Devon Kershaw Show, we bring back Zach Caldwell, one of North America’s leading ski and wax experts. We get into the arcane and arguably misguided rules around the use of fluorocarbon waxes at high-level races, along with potential challenges for wax and ski technicians at the little-studied Beijing Olympic venue.

You can find a host of resources from Zach on skis, wax, and grinds that might more-directly apply to your own skiing and racing at CaldwellSport.com.

We’ll be back with an episode on Olympic team selection next week. Send questions and feedback to devon@fasterskier.com and nat@fasterskier.com.
