The Whiteout Skiing Podcast
The Whiteout Skiing Podcast – Ski · Travel · Adventure
The Whiteout Skiing Podcast is the UK's No.1 ski podcast, covering ski holidays, ski resorts, snow conditions, ski gear and the biggest stories from the mountains.
Presented by Dom Killinger from InTheSnow and ski journalist Rob Stewart, two mad passionate skiers who've somehow managed to scrape a living by skiing, The Whiteout Skiing Podcast combines expert ski knowledge with the conversations skiers actually have.
Where's the snow? Which ski resorts are worth visiting? What ski gear is worth buying? Where should you ski next? And what are the big stories everyone's talking about?
Expect regular snow reports from the Alps, North America and beyond, destination advice, resort reviews, ski travel, new gear and technology, ski racing, mountain news and plenty of opinion.
We also tackle the questions that get skiers talking: Has skiing become too expensive? Can you still ski for £1,000? Are huge ski areas actually worth it? Is a £700 ski jacket really worth £700? And where is the best ski resort in the world?
Guests have included Lindsey Vonn, Bode Miller and Eddie the Eagle, alongside ski racers, athletes, adventurers, resort insiders, equipment experts and some of the most interesting personalities in the mountains.
Behind The Whiteout is InTheSnow, the UK's largest ski and mountain travel media platform, with 20 years of experience covering skiing and an audience of more than one million skiers each week across print, digital, social, email, YouTube and podcast.
The Whiteout was a finalist for Best Broadcast Audio Programme at the 2025 Travel Media Awards.

This week we look into the detail behind boot fitting
Starting at the looking and inspection of your feet - be they slender model like feet, or bunion ridden, flat slabs of meat, the fitter needs to assess your feet before the correct boots are selected.
After this there are a number of boots selected that may fit your feet and a shell check then takes place. This is when you plant your feet into the boots without the liners to see how much space there is between the shell and your feet.
Assuming there is enough space the liner is then put in and you try your new boots on for the first time.
At first they may feel tight but never fear there are many adjustments that can take place before you take to the slopes.
Totally we also explore custom foot beds and the process involved withgetting the perfect foot bed inside that boot.
Finally the footbed is inserted and any finer minor adjustments are made to the boot before you leave the store and head off to your nearest ski slopes!
This podcast was produced as a result of our recent visit to Ellis Brighams Boot Fitting Lab in Milton Keynes when we launched a youtube video that ended up very popular so we thought a podcast would support that poularity.
In the meantime Enjoy the mountains :) And Please do leave a review as it's the only way other like minded travellers get to find us!
