This week on How to Ski It, things get a little out of hand... well, for Dave at least! We pull a hilarious prank on our co-host (don't worry, it's all in good fun!), then get down to some serious business: the Colorado Ski Safety Act. We break down the law that outlines skier responsibility and protects ski resorts from lawsuits. But it doesn't stop there! We also share our honest opinions on the act and its shortcomings and even brainstorm some ideas for how it could be improved in the future. Buckle up for some laughs and some learning!

Ryan and Dave are idiots. There's absolutely no reason they should have a podcast, but here they are anyway. They talk about skiing and their love of skiing. Episode one is merely an introduction to How To Ski It and Ryan and Dave. Future episodes will hopefully contain useful information about skiing and fun places to go. We hope we'll have some other hosts and guests in the future. Check it out.
