About this episode

The episode features an interview with Norwegian ski legend Gjøran Tefre discussing the current state of skiing and personal experiences.

Jimmy and Mika are back — and this time we’re joined by Norwegian ski legend Gjøran Tefre for a proper catch-up on everything happening around the sport right now. We get into the current state of the Norwegian national team, the rise of private team setups, and what it actually takes to survive outside the federation system. Gjøran shares stories from inside the Norwegian scene, while the boys throw in plenty of opinions, questionable takes, and classic Skirious Problems banter along the way. We also somehow end up discussing beautiful American women, life on the road, training, racing, and all the chaos that comes with being a skier in 2026. Fresh episodes every two weeks — plus behind-the-scenes training VLOGs coming soon. 🎧 SUBSCRIBE TO “SKIRIOUS PROBLEMS” ON: Spotify: ⁠ https://open.spotify.com/show/1nVdyND ...
