Devin Gleason was a great addition to the ski test this year. He’s been skiing for 34 years and gets in about 70 days per year. He works in sales and marketing, so it’s useful for him to know about the skis and the ski industry as a whole. He does a great job conveying that message in a relatable and understandable way. Devin learned to ski right here in Vermont and as such, he has a soft spot in his heart for tree skiing. These days he’s skiing on Volkl Mantras, and in the off season he’s a surfer and diver. As such, if he could be any animial, he’d be a Dolphin. He lists his favorite skier as Bode but that could have a dual meaning, because he’s got a ripping son for a skier named Bode as well.
