Feb 24, 2023 Season 2 Episode 1

We’re back!

We are very excited to welcome Tom Waddington as our first guest of Season 2 of GOTP.

Tom has been one of a select few BASI trainers since 2014 and is also a race coach. He has spent over a decade teaching and training all over the Alps.

Over the past few years Tom has competed as an FIS athlete in New Zealand and worked closely with Dave Ryding (Britain’s No.1 Slalom skier and World top 10) and his coaching team. He now coaches junior athletes and Eurotest candidates.

Tom lives in Verbier in Switzerland all year round. In the winter he delivers training programmes for trainee ski instructors, and runs examinations for ski instructors to qualify. He also owns  a B&B in Le Chable called Una Lodge  and is a firefighter in Verbier! 

Aside from this Tom is undertaking a hugely impressive challenge this year and is rowing solo across the North Atlantic - which we can’t wait to talk to him about! He is also an ambassador for the company Carv  - a new and exciting digital ski coach technology.


On the 17th of June this year, Tom  is heading out on a truly inspirational and record breaking endeavour. To become the fastest man in history to row from Canada to the UK across the North Atlantic Ocean. 

Mind Oar Matter is a declaration that with enough commitment and determination we can overcome the physical and mental challenges we face, no matter how insurmountable they seem. 

This expedition will allow Tom to share his message, long-backed by science, that sport and exercise elevates mood and mental well-being. 

Tom’s passion for this cause comes from dealing with monumental loss and grief of his own.
