EP94: Ski Talk with Chelsea Mills


Welcome back to The Water Ski Podcast for Episode 94 with Chelsea Mills!

Chelsea is a professional water skier and mindset coach. She has had an unusual path into the sport, starting to practice it regularly at age 26 after a competitive and coaching career in collegiate and pro tennis. Sit back and enjoy this interview as Matteo asks Chelsea about her beginnings and days in tennis, and how the experiences in that sport helped her shape her current waterski career. Chelsea shared key moments in her athletic journey, some negative and some positive, leading up to the raise in pro skiing she has had in the last comple of years. Some of the highlights include her first Pro Tour win at the 2021 San Gervasio Pro Am and a tremendous score of 1 buoy at 10.25m (41off) at the Mc Skis Fall tournament.

Enjoy this interview and see you next week!

EP93: Ski Talk with Zack Worden (Part 2)


Welcome back to The Water Ski Podcast for part 2 of Matteo's interview with Zack Worden!

In this second part, Matteo explores Zack's career in Pro Jumping, starting from the first Pro Tour win to later successes, injuries, the struggles towards the end, and a reborn passion and appreciation for just flying down the lake as far as possible. The two friends also about John Worden's journey into Technical Control, how Zack learned from dad, and the continuation of this work by Zack and Jon Travers (see EP80) after John's passing. Matteo was also very curious to get Zack's opinion on a few former and current jumpers, opinions about style, and about his own style. Of course, all of these topics were intertwined with stories, derailing into other topics, and good laughs between two friends who enjoyed sitting down together for a great chat!

Enjoy Part 2 and see you next week ;-)
