Bode Miller, world renown Olympic American, World Championship gold medalist, and two-time overall World Cup champion is the most successful male Alpine Skier of all time.

When asked about joining the show line up, Miller commented: “When asked about joining the show line up, Miller said: “I’m really looking forward to hanging out with the Boston ski show crowd again. No matter where you ski in the U.S., New England skiers stand out. I couldn’t have succeeded without the ski culture they established. It’s a homecoming for me.”
