Hey everyone, and welcome to another episode of Beyond the Mountains Podcast! Today, I’m joined by a freestyle skier and business entrepreneur —Nolen Oayda. Instagram profile : @nolenoayda @theintrepiddream Nolen Oayda is a true pioneer of Australian freestyle skiing. From freestyle skiing in Europe, carving lines in Verbier, Switzerland, Nolen helped shape the sport in its early days and became a powerful influence on generations of Australian athletes. He lived with a fun and fearless spirit, embracing creativity at every turn. The essence of freestyle skiing — risk, resilience, and freedom — flowed through his business, surfing, music, and family life. Beyond the slopes, Nolen has built a career as an entrepreneur in Jindabyne, turning the same energy that drove his skiing into a thriving photo journalism and business career. His story is one of passion, reinvention, and living by the mantra that life is short — so surround yourself with good people, and simply have a go. As a bonus episode, Nolen agreed to take the Beyond the Mountains questionnaire to reveal his true mountain character. You can find the bonus episode after this inspiring conversation.
