This week it’s a DOUBLE whammy, two for one, ‘ski instructor special’ episode.
In Part 1 Emma asks Bella some questions about her career as a ski instructor before we speak to Jas Bruce and James Duffield in Part 2.
Jas is a BASI trainer, former British athlete, top ski instructor and now head of product and relations for BASI. He is currently based in Edinburgh. James is also a BASI trainer and top British ski instructor (and Emma’s brother) who is based permanently in the Alps in Sainte-Foy.
At the end of the half-term week and what would have been one of the busiest weeks of the season for them (and us) we discuss what they’ve been doing during the pandemic, positive changes happening in the industry to adapt, challenges and achievements in their careers so far, ski racing, nordic skiing, family ski hols and why some of the best skiers ski with teddy bears.
* Please excuse any squeaking in the background half-way through which is Bella’s dog trying to put her point across.

Lift served skiing may be out this year in France unless you are a club skier but Nordic activities are going strong including this CPD day run by BASI and Tania Noakes in Praz de Lys. You can even take the Nordic L1 course as a CPD for another string in your bow.
