In this fourth episode of The Water Ski Podcast, Matteo interviews Igor Morozov, the winner of the Malibu Open Jump event.

Some of the things the two bearded men talked about on Sunday include:

• Igor's win on his first jump the night before
• How Igor started skiing and the early days
• His ability to combine skiing with other passions
• Living the life of a water skier vs. living a city life and struggle to find time to ski
• How skiing in the US helped him improve as a jumper
• The role of a coach in skiing
• Tips on how to make jumping safer and more approachable
• The current state of jumping at the pro level
• … and more!

Igor is by far one of the most interesting characters in the world of water skiing. I enjoyed this conversation a lot and, had he not had to go and catch some waves to surf, we would have probably gone on for another two hours!
