Welcome to episode 36 of The Ski Instructor Podcast and one that I have been looking forward to since I first began drawing up my list of people I wanted to speak to. Peter Kuwall is my guru, a guy who has probably forgotten more about skiing than I will ever know. We talk about how he came up in the industry, the boom years of Scottish skiing, how teaching and mechanical engineering relate and the old French technical test that was the forerunner to the Eurotest. I always love chatting to PK and i
