Deb Armstrong is one of America’s most celebrated skiers, being both a former gold-winning Olympian and a former PSIA Alpine team member. Today she shares much of her knowledge and passion for the sport to her incredible YouTube channel. She discusses everything from technique to technology to just the general joy of being on snow. She rules, and she likes to bring important things into focus.
In her most recent video, she dug into the fascinating history of Nordic Combined, speaking specifically with two time Junior World Silver Medalist Alexa Brabec who hopes to go to the Olympics. Unfortunately nordic combined remains the only winter Olympic sport that is not gender equal.
“Meet Alexa Brabec, Nordic Combined Two time Junior World Silver Medalist. We discuss the amazingness of this legacy sport and the challenges Nordic Combined faces moving forward.“
You can learn more about Alexa on her Instagram, where she provides the link to a GoFundMe that allows her to continue to compete at the highest level.
