The Devon Kershaw Show by FasterSkier

In this episode, we speak with Zach Caldwell -- Putney, Vermont ski whisperer and wax nerd at Caldwell Sport. We’ve received questions from listeners asking about the difficulty of waxing (for both skate and classic) as well as ski selection when the temperatures spike beyond the melting point for snow. That has been the case in Oberstdorf, Germany the last week, site of the 2021 Nordic Ski World Championships.

In this episode, we speak with Zach Caldwell -- Putney, Vermont ski whisperer and wax nerd at Caldwell Sport. We’ve received questions from listeners asking about the difficulty of waxing (for both skate and classic) as well as ski selection when the temperatures spike beyond the melting point for snow. That has been the case in Oberstdorf, Germany the last week, site of the 2021 Nordic Ski World Championships. 

That said, it’s a “rest day” at World Champs, so no race breakdown in this episode — just wax and ski talk.

Thanks for listening.
