Xander Guldman is a relative newcomer on the scene and could be called "one of the best kept secrets in skiing." I mean, he's been competing in big mountain environments since he was 10 years old, he's stood on many podiums, made it to the Freeride World Tour, won awards, and has/is filming with the biggest outfits in the ski game. His bouncy style and unique trick/grab vocabulary separate him from the rest and on the podcast, we talk about his live-scored personal project "Form", graduating from UC Davis Pre-Med, the FWT, skiing and what's next. Xander's brother, Jordan Guldman, asks the Inappropriate Questions.
