TPM Episode 273: Paddy Graham, Pro Skier

Paddy Graham wasn't supposed to be a pro skier wearing a Red Bull helmet. He's from Sheffield, and everyone knows Brits for their football, not their talent in the mountains. But Paddy changed that school of thought, and it all started on a dry slope. Yep, before Paddy was filming powder segments, he learned how to ski on carpet. And that magic carpet had taken Paddy all over the world in pursuit of deep snow and the biggest jumps ever built. We talk about his interesting journey, the Legs of Steel crew, getting the most airtime ever, and so much more on the podcast. It's a different road map than most take to becoming a pro skier. Ahmet Dadali asks the Inappropriate Questions.
