Stuart Winchester. He's the host of the Storm Skiing Podcast, which is really quite a good listen if I do say so myself, and he gets a wide cross section of various ski industry leaders from GM's to Lift Manufacturers, to media people in the industry, etc.
He certainly seems to have his finger on the pulse of what's going on in the overall ski industry, even if it doesn't make sense to some of us on SJ, who often have a bit of a different perspective on what the ski industry is/should be, which is often different than what the masses, who comprise a far greater percentage of the annual ski business that us SJ'ers do. At the end of the day, the ski industry is a business after all, and all businesses want to stay in business and grow which means different things for each of them
