Olympic Skier Eyes New Mountain
Gold-medal winner Johnny Moseley wraps up a two-week AMEX training internship with the Kellogg Group

By: Rich Blake
Issue: July 2005

At age 29, Johnny Moseley, who took home a skiiing gold medal at the 1998 Winter Olympics, is seeking a new mountain to conquer -- Wall Street. He’s now wrapping up a two-week-long stint at a Kellogg Group specialists' trading firm working on the floor of the AMEX.

"I’m done with skiing," Moseley says. "Just not curious about it anymore. Wall Street is fascinating, I can see a career, maybe trading. You definitely get the bug being down on the floor." Yes, it’s summer at the AMEX but Moseley took advantage of the pace and the attention he was getting and says he’ll always value the learning experience. Kellogg founder Kirk Kellogg met Moseley while on a skiing vacation earlier this year and arranged for the internship.

"He’s a smart guy who is getting a great macro view," Kellogg says. "He’ll go places." Moseley says he’s studied options and ETF trading, which will help in whatever path he chooses. Ringing the opening bell Thursday morning, the Olympian from Marin County, California, was all smiles as he yelled out to the floor, "Thanks for showing me a lot of love." Of course the former host of MTV’s Real World/Road Rules Challenge had his balls busted, too. "Some guys gave me shit about my hair," the spiky coiffed mogul master remarked. "But that’s all part of the experience."

ok so for everyone who bitched me out for saying he quit.

there is a difference. mike nick is a good example. he still skis and works with siver cartel even though he sort of "retired". mosely quit.

tanner will probably make the bulk of his money later on in life, but he still has alot invested in armada and will most likely be tied to our industry.

mosely isnt even interested. that means he didnt really have much of a passion for our sport and doesnt even want to consider doing something that would help it.

Yeah, but that would suck livin off daddy's pretty penny don't ya think. Even if tanner got involved with real estate with his father... you and i both know that daddy would would be the brains behind that opperation.

Keep in mind, tanner is one of my favorite skiers i just think he's fucked in 15 years. Don't you think it would kinda suck to be that age and not do anything productive wth your life... i mean skiing would be fun, but maybe it's just me, i think i would actually need to "do" something 5 days a week at the age of 35.

c'mon man, you and i both know he didn't mean he's quitting skiing like that. People say stupid stuff on camera and around reporters all the time. I'm sure somebody will see him on a hill this winter.

whats the big fuckin deal? People get sick of things, change their ways and their interests. He wants a career now instead of skiing. Just because none of you could never imagine quitting skiing doesnt mean that nobody else is allowed to.

...maybe i'm asking for a lot here, but what has johny done to "ruin skiing's image". I watched battle of the sexes on MTV alot when he was hosting, and i really didn't see much of a problem with his behavor. Yeah the game was bad, but would any video game company shell out tons of dollars to produce a sweet game for such a low selling base years ago. I really don't see anything the guy has done to cause all of this hatered.

nothing, which is why i thought mosely was cool and thought it be actually kinda cool to see him filming again. what is annoying is the fact that hes not going to do anything for the industry that he "helped start" and really gave him his life. all his experiences like being able to host on MTV and be on SNL...

it was his job and his life. now he's done with it, it seems like he should give something back. like even a "jonny mosely terrain park" or helping out at a camp in the summer.

Ok, I can understand your arguement. It makes good sense. Maybe he could contibute more to what "he started".

But I think it's rediculous that people say he's a disgrace to skiing and makes us look stupid... he won an olympic gold medal and has brought a little respect with his unconventional olympic tricks. Let's be honost, if he made a video or entered a comp now, he'd get destroyed.


haha on a side note i think it would be sweet if he entered the US Open in 5 years under the alias "skier X" and kicked some serious ass.

i seriously never said hes a disgrace to skiing. at least i dont remeber it. if i did, it was because i was shocked that hed leave the industry. he was the best freeskiier out there.

and he doesnt make us look stupid. he helped start us.

I will never ever forget when I was in 8th grade and stayed up late one night to watch Moseley throw a 360 mute grab in the olympics. That set off my passion for skiing and since then I have moved across the country to ski better mountains and more often.

People grow up and need to make money. It happens. Get over it. He's gonna keep making a living cause he can't do it amping his gold medal and mogul career forever.

So was he a big part of the start of freeskiing or not? You use the fact that was a big part sarcastically in one sentence, then use it literally in the next. Which is it? If he did play a huge role, and now he's done skiing, has he not done his part to getting your sport out to the masses? Nothing satisfies you other than calling him a fag. What about other athletes that get hurt/retire, and disappear? And since you don't think he can do anything but ruin skiing's "reputation", why do you care if he's done?

Personally, I think he feels like he is no longer competetive, and thus wants to move on with his life. Hence, Berkely, WallStreet.

Those of you pissed off about this need to ask yourselves why you feel this way. It really doesn't affect you, personally anyway.

hes not a sellout........hes starting to be middle aged and his body wont let him hit jumps much longer. He probably cant ski at the same level as before so now its just not worth skiing if he cant do the shit he used to. And FUCK, why not make mad bills, i sure would if i was him

i'm sure 99% of this site knows that jon gets laid more than 99% of this site. --strode420

Another thing I really dont get is he never exactly was all too into our sport to begin with. He did moguls. Yeah he was doing 360 Mutes and the "Dinner Roll" but I mean he never did urban. He never rode park. He just did some freestyle tricks on moguls. I wouldnt classify him as a Freestyle Skier. Yeah he had Mosleys Mad Trix but look how that turned out....

haha yeah, all of these mosley haters are such "core skiers" they'll being skiing until it kills them. I can see them now, old and gray in the park "Do you remember 50 years ago when that that bitch-ass sell out jonhy mosely totally ditched us for that wallstreet crap. What a fucking tool, who needs a nice house, job and family anyway."



Sad thing is a lot of them are probably living in their little high school bubble where mommy and daddy provide everything. NEWSFLASH kiddies - there's more to life than skiing. As much as i love to ski, i know that someday when i'm done with college i'll have a job and family and life of my own. I'll still ski, but you won't see me hucking myself toff of the 80 ft. booter.

dont call him a sell out cuz he quit skiing and went into an actual job. he is a smart dude. i read a thing in freeskier about pro skiers not havin an education so when they cant ski they go into porn, or something stupid like that. you just think its wierd cuz he went from pro skier to wallstreet, but no one thinks its wierd for your dad to change jobs. its only him just changing jobs so shut up

all these posts mean nothing until we have a source for this article. Moseley's shirts say 'ski' right on the front, everyone so eager to believe that he would be quoted saying "i'm done with skiing"

I don't believe he would say that
