Jim started the company in his garage, making bike grips and goggles. He wanted to get into winter sports and that's when I came along.

I sold my shares in the company around 1983. The company was growing and needed something different, management-wise. I'm really a start-up guy, not a corporate guy.

They usually start one company and keep it. Innovators tend to start three companies in a lifetime because they get bored and they want to start over again.

I left the ski technician job in 1976, because the racers are superstitious about the people repairing their skis, and you couldn't keep the job more than two years. Yet, after I left, many racers secretly sent me their skis to fix.
