Meet the godfather of freeskiing - Mike Douglas.
Mike - alongside a handful of others - reinvented ski technology and therefore the future of skiing itself.
After being instrumental in the creation of the twin tip ski that unlocked a completely different style of skiing, then becoming a mainstay of the pro skier scene, Mike turned his attention to creating ski films.
In doing so, he became an icon of winter sports.
He has gone on to produce ski films that do more than produce ski porn - pow shots and cliff drops.
Mike tells stories - beautiful stories that enrich the viewers experience of life through a broadened perspective.
Along the way, Mike has set up a production business, hired and disbanded teams, and produced genuinely world changing films.
All of this, he did whilst keeping his sense of adventure and maintaining his freedom.
In this episode you will learn:
- How to balance business ownership and adventure
- How Mike had to readjust his business through Covid
- The thrill of being vulnerable and how to embrace it
- How the flow state of business corresponds to the flow state of freeskiing
- Mike’s adventure bucketlist
