Speed & Style on Dirt & Snow with Dillon Flinders

Dillon Flinders has some very lofty goals for himself — both on a bike and on skis — so we sat down to talk about them, and how he’s arranging his life to chase both at once. Along the way, we get into the differing cultures of both sports; how a mindset change improved Dylan’s DH race performance; mentorship and fostering the next generation of American DH racers; & much more.TOPICS & TIMES:Dylan’s intro to MTB & Tuning skis to buy a DH bike(3:26)Juggling biking and skiing (6:53)Mental approach to racing DH, the Outlaw Bike Team, Injuries & recovery (15:49)Ski vs. bike race culture (29:10)Mentorship & American DH racing (39:09)Racing World Cup DH and competing on the Freeride World Tour (46:50)RELATED LINKS:Introducing: CRAFTED\Introducing: Open MicBecome a Blister MemberBlister LabsThis Week’s Gear GiveawayBlister Mountain Bike Buyer’s GuideOUR OTHER PODCASTSOff The CouchGEAR:30Blister PodcastCRAFTED Hosted on Acast.
