THE SNOWBOARD PROJECT Pro Files : Ken Achenbach Ken may be Canada's first snowboarder - if you don't believe me   find someone who went riding before him. While that may be in dispute, The Snowboard Shop is not - it was the world's first snowboard specific retailer - inspiring a generation of Canadian riders. He also built the world's first twin tip snowboard - the Barfoot Twin Tip, created an early snowboard specific clothing line and started The Camp of Campions - a snowboard camp that trained aspiring riders for 25 years.  To say Ken is a legend is an understatement - to say that he is still, 40 plus years on, a dedicated snowboarder, is simply a statement of fact.    This is a long one - but a good one.    This week's interview is brought to you by Melvin Brewing, Cardiff Snowcraft,  Never Summer Industries Tow Pro Lifts and United Shapes.

Full episode info and Show Notes: www.wearelookingsideways.com We dig into the details of a great American snowboarding life for episode 025 of the Looking Sideways Podcast, as I speak to Hollywood screenwriter and OG snowboard legend Jon Boyer. Canuck legend Boyer came up with the first wave of North American snowboard pros, mentored by Ken Achenbach and counting shredders like Keith Duckboy Wallace, Shaun Palmer and Damien Sanders as peers. Along the way he scored a pro model on Barfoot, the cover of TWS and a part in a Greg Stump film. Like I said. Legit. Later, he moved to Hollywood, where he has carved out a career for himself as a respected screenwriter, working on open writing assignments and his own spec scripts such as Freebyrd, which earned him recognition from the Nicholl Fellowship and a place on the 2013 Black List. Yep this is a proper wide-ranger this one, with a charismatic legend who is disproving in style the old F Scott Fitzgerald line about there being no second acts in American lives. Love your work Boyer! Thanks for coming on the Looking Sideways podcast. Thanks to Scott Nixon (www.scottnixon.co.uk) for post-production help and Matt Ward (www.linguistine.com) for the theme tune.

Back in the day, when snowboarding was considered more of a crime than a sport, Whistler was THE place to shred the gnar on one plank. With the help of local snowboarding historians, Toaster takes us back to the old school, when people would drive across the continent for one hit on the famous Blackcomb “wind lip.” Whistler Blackcomb helped pave the way for snowboarding on the West Coast and continues to be one of the ultimate snowboarding destinations.
