Two Planker #67 Misfit Skis with Lukas Billingsley and Ian Williams

Two Planker #67 Misfit Skis with Lukas Billingsley and Ian Williams

In this episode, we sit down with the founders of Misfit Skis. What started as a dream for Lukas Billingsley and Ian Williams became a reality this past season with the launch of their new ski company. In this episode, we follow the story of how an internship gone sour and a chance encounter at a Arsenic Anywhere Bring Your Own Beanie event lead to the birth of new ski company.
