TPM Episode 452: Emily Childs, Pro Skier, Helicopter Pilot

from The Powell Movement · host Mike Powell

Emily Childs is a helicopter pilot, and while that's pretty rad, her side gig, being a pro skier who travels the world in search of deep powder and insane lines, is even more badass. But, Emily didn't have the traditional track into pro skiing, she was never the best, she didn't stand on many podiums, but what she did have was passion, and the right crew of friends to start making ski edits with. From there, her crew, The Blondes, created a lot of momentum and three pro ski careers.
