Discussion with skier, Freeski judge and marketing director, Jason Arens.
Jason is heavily involved in freeskiing, both as a marketing director and co-owner at surface skis / joystick / causwell and as a freeski judge.
He’s been involved as a judge for over 10 years now and has become the worldwide reference for freeski judging. The events he’s been a part of include the Olympics, X Games, Dew tour, world championships, world cups and much more.
In this episode, we followed up on our last talk from episodes 30 & 31, that were the inception that led me into judging 3 years ago now. We went deep into judging, talked about the 2025 X Games, the current state of pipe skiing, the intricaties of freeski judging and his upcoming role as head judge of next winter’s Olympics in Italy. Plus, we also touched on the business side he’s involved in with Surface skis and how the industry is shaken with USA tariffs and last season’s rebirth of the outerwear brand Causwell.
