Reviewer Reports from Blister Summit 2026: Blades, Boards, Backslaps, & More

About this episode

The episode recaps the highlights and experiences from Blister Summit 2026, featuring discussions on gear and memorable moments.

We’re still buzzing from Blister Summit 2026, which we held last week at Snowbird, Utah. And in this conversation, a number of our reviewers got together to recap their favorite moments, runs, and gear. We also cover what it’s like to ride with the strikingly handsome Justin Bobb (whether he’s on a board, skis, or blades); one of the aspects of ski reviewing that Sascha Anastas does better than Jonathan and Luke; CRAFTED podcast co-host Eli Brown’s perspective as a newcomer to the Summit; and more.
