Not every ski season can be all blue bird pow days, especially this year. When the early-season soft snow was all skied and gone, Benny Smith headed back home to Colorado to take advantage of the pleasant spring conditions. To bring the people behind the curtain of a pro-skier’s season, Benny decided to document it all. The second of two episodes, this BTS footy is both hilarious and humanizing. We can’t all win all the time with perfect skiing conditions but we can all certainly make the most of what we’re dealt.
