In this episode, we have U.S. Ski &amp; Snowboard cross-country program director Chris Grover on to discuss the tumultuous last two years of navigating the pandemic, including the many ways in which it created strain for the team, particularly as Omicron variant surged during the months leading into the 2022 Beijing Olympics. It’s been a hard two years, but this conversation extends well beyond the impacts of the pandemic. We also discuss equal distance racing, the 2022-23 roster for the U.S.Ski Team, which features a number of talented young men, team selection for World Cup, World Championship, and a new gender equity initiative proposed to the FIS by US Ski &amp; Snowboard which incentives nations to invest in developing women ski technicians and utilizing them at World Cup events. This proposal was recently accepted by the FIS cross country committee, and should it be officially accepted at FIS council meetings, it would mean a new set of course bibs would be available beginning next season only to female techs.  Therefore, a country could increase the size of its service staff by investing in the development of women techs and utilizing these women at World Cups. Thanks for listening and thanks to Boulder Nordic Sport for their support of this podcast.

Self Defense Or Murder?The Case of Nikki Addimando And Chris Grover

In early May, U.S. Ski &amp; Snowboard announced its nominations for the 2021 Cross Country Ski Team. As always, we found the selections notable for many reasons. Hot on the heels of some great finishes at Junior Worlds, next year’s team is fat with young talent, including the biggest D team ever. But the team is equally notable for the absence of some great veteran skiers who didn’t meet the criteria. And some may have noticed these selections were announced as the “Davis U.S. National Cross Country Team Program.” Did the team pick up a new sponsor? In this episode, Cross Country Skier’s Adam Howard is joined by Chris Grover, longtime U.S. Cross Country Ski Team head coach, to talk about all of these developments.
