Behind the Start Gate 2: Steve Porino on Working as a Commentator for FIS World Cup Ski Racing In-Person
Steve Porino, NBC Sports Broadcaster and former alpine ski racer, will talk about what it takes to be a commentator on the world cup ski races - and what gets covered or not, in the US. From his days as a ski racer then moving into commentating on the Outdoor Life Network. Steve has made a career of ski racing, and more recently, being the on motorcycle commentator for the Tour de France. His insights are incomparable into what is happening on the World Cup circuit from who's hot, what new tech gear is needed, and what we might see on TV during the World Cup in Sun Valley.
Joining Steve on stage for questions and conversation will be Jake Moe, founder of POWDER magazine.
